GEICO, the third-largest private
passenger auto insurer in the United States, awarded the 2009 GEICO
Partnership Excellence Award to Océ North America. The award recognizes
individuals and organizations that, through partnerships with GEICO,
demonstrate their dedication, customer-focused service and service
guarantee. The big insurer provides 24-hour service, 7 days a week, 365
days a year. They expect nothing less of their printing systems.
"Océ
demonstrated these qualities and more in the work they conducted with
our company, and we are proud to present Océ with an award showing our
appreciation for continued excellence in service to GEICO and our
customers," said GEICO Regional Vice President, John Izzo.
GEICO
wanted better, faster solutions that also delivered value for their
investment, and Océ came through with an award-winning solution. Océ
VarioPrint® 6250 cut-sheet printers exceeded their expectations for
overall value and performance. To date, the Océ VarioPrint 6250 systems
have consistently delivered over 98 percent uptime.
"So far, they
have met or exceeded their commitment every month," said William
Riddle, Director of GEICO's National Print Mail Facility in
Fredericksburg, VA, who nominated Océ for the award.

Based to the
Océ VarioPrint success, GEICO replaced their existing fleet of
continuous feed equipment with the Océ VarioStream® 8750 engines, and
that outcome also went beyond expectations. "We studied their
requirements and offered guidance for migrating to better production
models, from the data to the print to the inserter to the mail stream,"
explains Mal Baboyian, President, Océ North America, Production Printing
Systems division. "We also stepped up with a service guarantee for
uptime and production,"
Demonstrating customer service excellence
"GEICO
had aggressive business goals, and we are proud that our equipment
helps them meet their objectives. "Océ is extremely proud to receive
this honor from GEICO in recognition of our customer focus and
dedication. It's also an honor to have GEICO as a customer," said
Baboyian,. "Receiving this award validates our focus on delivering
exceptional customer service to help our customers succeed. 'Customer
First' is a core Océ value, and it is engrained in everything we do."
