ConnXion signs global integrated logistics group Schenker

Announcement posted by ConnXion Limited 22 Feb 2005

ConnXion Limited (ASX:CXN), a provider of electronic document production and delivery solutions, today announced the signing of a contract with Schenker, one of the worlds leading providers of integrated logistic services for the implementation of the ConnXion Hosted Service.
Schenker joins a growing list of customers, including DHL, Budget RentaCar, Smorgon Steel, TAB NSW and Queanbeyan City Council.
The ConnXion Hosted Service uses an Application Service Provider (ASP) model which will enable Schenker to remotely use ConnXion as its communications infrastructure to produce business documents such as bills and statements and seamlessly deliver them to their customers via email, fax, short message service (SMS) and the post.
We are very excited about bringing on Schenker as a new and valued customer of ConnXion. As a result of our ability to immediately reduce their document delivery costs, improve their business processes and increase customer satisfaction, Schenker is now the second global logistics group to implement the ConnXion Hosted Service in the last six months, said David Colvin, CEO of ConnXion Limited.
As part of the implementation process, ConnXion will facilitate the migration from Schenkers current proprietary billing system to SAP. This migration will be transparent to Schenkers customer base. Throughout the implementation phase, both systems will run in parallel to enable full testing, training and seamless implementation of the ConnXion Hosted Service.
We immediately saw the value of implementing the ConnXion Hosted Service in terms of cost savings and customer service benefits. Most importantly, ConnXion was able to demonstrate a seamless migration and implementation process that would not impact our customer base, said Mr. Greg Goh, Finance Director of Schenker.
