Totowa, NJ - Dydacomp, producer of the popular Mail Order Manager (M.O.M.) catalog and ecommerce business management software has recently teamed up with American Package Express (APX), a leading B2C package delivery company. The collaboration gives small and medium scale domestic shippers a remarkable opportunity to slash parcel carrier costs up to twenty percent or more.

The ability to reduce costs is credited to APX�s unique hybrid service.� Packages are moved through APX�s own shipping infrastructure for the first leg of their journey and ultimately through the US Postal Service for �last mile� delivery to the consumer.� In addition to reliability, the service offers efficiency and economy to mail order and ecommerce businesses that ship under 1000 packages per day. A sophisticated software suite that passes information to and from APX shipping technology solutions to M.O.M. seals the deal, eliminating manual entry while ensuring that customer service representatives have everything they need to fully service a call, including details to track and trace any package shipped by APX.� 

When asked why team up with Dydacomp, APX VP of Sales Roger Gellis explained, �This is just a great fit.� The M.O.M. system caters to the cataloguer and e-tailer that processes 50 to 1,000 orders per day, which is exactly the market APX is now focused on serving.� This segment has been ignored by the major ground parcel carriers for years and APX can offer these shippers a quality alternative, taking advantage of what USPS does best, the DDU or residential last mile delivery, while offering significant cost savings, never before offered to this segment of the market.

Robert Coon, Dydacomp�s Vice-President of Sales, echoed those sentiments when explaining why Dydacomp chose to assist APX with M.O.M. software integration.� "While major carriers continue to work directly with us to automate M.O.M.'s shipping processes, there has been little attention from carriers to cut rates so dramatically. APX's recent focus and investment in integration with M.O.M. offers a practical alternative for shippers who are seriously in search of a way keep shipping costs in line without jeopardizing customer service."

With testing and initial implementations of the M.O.M./APX solution behind them, the joint solution providers expect interest in the new solution to be in high demand through the start of the 2004 holiday season as businesses look for creative ways to cut expenses.
