CARLSBAD, CA (May 19, 2005) - Document Sciences Corporation (NASDAQ: DOCX), an IBM Business Partner, will be participating with IBM during ACORD LOMA in a live demonstration that shows how straight-through-processing of a universal life policy, from data capture to policy issuance, can be achieved using a services-oriented architecture and insurance industry standards approach. Document Sciences' xPression is one of 9 application solutions that are leveraging a services-oriented architecture, web services and industry standards implemented through IBM Middleware. The demonstrations will be in IBM's Booth # 1808 and Document Sciences' Booth #1624.
"The openness of xPression's dynamic content publishing architecture allows us to combine with other enterprise vendors for straight-through processing and allows us to be part of an on demand solution," said Jack McGannon, president and CEO, Document Sciences. "Because we have pre-defined adaptors, it makes it easier and less expensive for our customers to easily integrate our technology within their environment to generate transactional or batch communications."
Document Sciences was recently named by Celent Communications in their April 2005 "Insurance Software Deal Trends" report, as a leading provider in the policy and correspondence document categories for both Life and Property/Casualty insurance.
"The Life Core Insurance solution that IBM and our initial 9 Independent Software Vendors (ISV) participated in - including xPression from Document Sciences Corporation - is an instantiation of how together we help insurance companies transform themselves into web-enabled, on demand businesses with the flexibility of choosing appropriate application function brought together through insurance industry standards (ACORD) within a services-oriented architecture," said Cindy Maike, Global Market Segment Manager, Insurance Group, for IBM. "Together IBM and our ISVs help insurance carriers to leverage their existing IT investments."
