EasyLink Services Corporation, (NASDAQ: EASY), a leading global provider of outsourced business process automation services that transform manual and paper-based business processes into electronic ones, today announced that Arlington Capital Mortgage has selected EasyLink's Integrated Desktop Messaging Service to eliminate fax machines within their company along with the manual business processes associated with sending and receiving loan documents as paper. Arlington Capital is an independently owned mortgage bank established in 1989. Its retail, wholesale and Internet originations totaled in excess of $1 billion in 2005. Its strength comes from the recognition that its people assisted by the right technology are the key to being able to provide its customers an extensive product offering at competitive rates with the level of service they deserve. Prior to selecting EasyLink, the Arlington Capital team relied heavily on traditional faxing to process a variety of documents including mortgage applications and supporting documents, as well as interest rate information sheets. They were looking for a more cost-effective and efficient method of processing documents and communicating with customers and staff that would not demand deep investment of capital in hardware or software as well as technology management. EasyLink has extensive experience helping companies in the mortgage business automate key business processes. Arlington Capital has incorporated EasyLink's Integrated Desktop Messaging Service into its corporate infrastructure, eliminating fax machines as well as the need to invest in fax servers. By choosing EasyLink's solution, they have experienced improved efficiency and productivity while reducing costs of hardware maintenance, supplies and requirements demanded by traditional faxing. The company can now send and receive faxed documents as e-mails and complete the processing of numerous forms and important communications without spending the time and manual labor that was previously required to do it. Steve Rosso, VP Information Technology at Arlington Capital commented: "One of the reasons for Arlington Capital's success in the marketplace has been our strategic deployment of advanced technologies to bring greater functionality and efficiency to our offerings. EasyLink's solutions are completely aligned with this strategy." "Financial institutions of all sizes that are engaged in consumer and business lending face the challenge of dealing with volumes of fax and paper efficiently," said Bill Fallon, VP Marketing at EasyLink. "EasyLink's solution set provides these companies with a range of integrated options to streamline business processes involving document reception, capture, conversion, routing, management and workflow - no wonder we serve a broad cross section of the mortgage lending industry, including the mortgage divisions of large global banks, independent mortgage banks, credit unions, and brokers."
