RR Donnelley Awarded Multi-Year Print and Distribution
Outsourcing Contract With CIGNA
CHICAGO, July 29 -- R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company has been
awarded a multi-year print and distribution-outsourcing contract with
CIGNA, one of the nation's leading providers of health care,
disability, life and accident insurance benefits.
"We are delighted to have this enterprise-wide agreement with
CIGNA," said Mark A. Angelson, Chief Executive Officer of RR
Donnelley. "With medical plans that cover more than 10 million people
and management of one of the largest HMOs, CIGNA wanted a company
that could provide its print and print-related needs across the print
and distribution supply chain at a competitive cost. We believe RR
Donnelley is the best positioned company in the industry to offer
this broad approach, and this agreement with CIGNA is further
evidence that our cross-platform sales approach is working."
Under the agreement, RR Donnelley will provide printing and
distribution of CIGNA's member materials from pre-enrollment to
post-enrollment products and services.
"We're thrilled to have been selected to manage and implement
this outsourcing business model for CIGNA's print and distribution
operations," said Bob Nelson, President, Corporate Sales at RR
Donnelley. "Our agreement with CIGNA is yet another example of the
breadth and depth we can offer across the RR Donnelley platform of
products and services - from e-procurement to printing to
distribution and fulfillment. We look forward to a long and mutually
beneficial relationship with CIGNA."
"Our key measure in selecting an external partner was an
organization that could deliver high-quality products and services in
a cost-effective manner. We are confident RR Donnelley can maintain
the high standards CIGNA has come to expect from its printing and
distribution functions," said Jeffrey Novak, Vice President, Real
Estate and Purchasing for CIGNA.
