NowDocs Becomes Part of the Taylor Corporation Family of Companies
San Juan Capistrano, Calif.,
October 1, 2002 - NowDocs, Int. (International) is launching today as a newly formed
entity under the Taylor Corporation family of companies. Taylor Corporation is a
holding company for a diverse group of autonomous business entities involved in
direct marketing/creative agencies, direct mail catalog marketing, commercial
printing, holiday greeting cards, printed business and office products, technology,
advertising and promotional products and stationery products for special life events.
In May of 2002, Taylor Corporation, on behalf of some of its operating companies
exclusively licensed NowDocs' award winning, browser based, print-on-demand, application
service provider (ASP) technology. The announcement today means that NowDocs now has
the financial backing coupled with its superior technology to provide industry leading
print-on-demand solutions for the global 2000 marketplace.
The formation of NowDocs, Int. combines members of the original NowDocs development
team for both the NowPrint ASP, and NowPrint server solutions with the world-class
hosting environment, print production experience and expertise and market knowledge of
many of Taylor's diverse business entities.
NowDocs NowPrint ASP technology coupled with the industry experience and production
capabilities of our new partner companies is ideal for customers with
demanding print requirements allowing them to improve workflow, cut
turn-around time and reduce costs. In addition, NowDocs NowPrint server software allows corporate customers to run the
NowPrint solution "in-house" should they desire to store their data locally vs. a wide
area network based ASP model. In addition, the NowPrint server solution allows the
corporate customer to route production orders to their own equipment or optionally to
NowDocs certified production and fulfillment facilities.
NowPrint and NowPrint ASP are currently running successfully at some of the most
prestigious, financial, technology, consumer beverage and educational institutions
in the world today.
Both NowPrint and NowPrint ASP solutions include three easy-to-use modules for
ordering, production management and administration. These solutions offer an ideal
complement to another technology product, called the Single Resource Engine™, a best
of breed, web based, print procurement system, which contains the broadest array of
product configuration and order placement solutions available in the market today.
The Single Resource Engine is available through many of the Taylor entities and the
NowPrint ASP solution has been fully integrated into the Single Resource Engine and
is currently in production at several of our new affiliates.
"NowDocs will now have the resources and access to the diverse industry experience
required to make the NowDocs technology the defacto industry standard for browser
based enterprise print solutions." said Brad Adamske, former Founder and CEO of NowDocs
and now President of the newly formed entity. "We were attracted to NowDocs because
they provide the best enterprise print-on-demand technology in their marketplace today.
We only invest in companies who are or have the potential to be World Class and in
people who are World Class leaders. We believe Now Docs and Brad Adamske fit both
criteria", said Brad Schreier, Chief Executive Officer of Taylor Corporation. Schreier
went on to say, "Several of our business entity leaders championed this acquisition.
They saw it as an excellent opportunity to integrate their existing technology
solutions (i.e. Single Resource Engine), print production capabilities and experience
and market knowledge with NowDocs to provide the best solutions for their customers
by creating a new suite of solutions unparalleled in the marketplace."
Both NowPrint and NowPrint ASP are online and available for immediate demonstration
and production implementation. To learn more, or to schedule a live Web-based presentation,
