Integrated Communications Solution to Enable Streamlined
Operations, Reduce Costs, Enhance 'Green' Efforts BASKING RIDGE,
N.J., Sept. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Business is helping Standard
Register, a leading global document-services provider, upgrade and
consolidate its networks to enhance productivity, reduce operating
expenses, and make more efficient use of information technology
resources. The integrated network will lay the foundation for
Standard Register's unified communications strategy, enabling it to
link its devices, applications, networks and operating systems to
act as one and advance communications capabilities. Under a
three-year, $6 million agreement that extends the company's
longtime relationship with Standard Register, Verizon Business will
act as its single-source provider for communication services,
including professional design, implementation and management of
Private IP, Verizon Business' MPLS network service; Internet
Dedicated; and Secure Gateway Retail and Remote Office. This new
consolidated IP network will link 3,400 Standard Register employees
across the U.S., Mexico and Canada, and multiple, geographically
dispersed sites. Specifically, Verizon Business will implement a
Managed IP PBX infrastructure that will integrate advanced
telephony and presence functions with Standard Register's wide- and
local-area networks so that users can seamlessly control
communications functions such as consolidating voice mail from
multiple devices, and accessing voice mail online. "Unified
communications [UC] will transform the way Standard Register
communicates internally and moves information around the company,"
said Joanne Cummins, vice president of technology, Standard
Register. "UC will enhance communications among our diverse
workforce, and advance our collaboration and communications with
our customers." Stephen P. Young, group president of corporate and
government markets for Verizon Business, said, "Reliable and secure
transmission of mission-critical data is a linchpin of Standard
Register's business success. Our extensive and highly reliable
global network -- coupled with leading-edge IT capabilities and
professional services expertise -- makes us the perfect technology
partner." Standard Register primarily serves customers in the
financial services, health care and manufacturing sectors,
providing clients with the documents essential to running their
businesses every day. Standard Register's use of IP technologies
will also help the company accomplish more of its energy
conservation and environmental protection goals. The technologies
lay the foundation for implementing voice over IP for Standard
Register's virtual and mobile workforce and for future initiatives
such as advanced video conferencing. Verizon Business is a
recognized leader in delivering advanced communications and
information technology (IT) services for large-business customers
