THE MAQUET GREEN MACHINE

The Green

 The objective in adding PROLIFIQ to our Sales and Marketing tools


is to initiate a green movement and reduce the amount of paper
that is generated by MAQUET for literature fulfillment.
 The goal is to decrease the amount of paper literature that is sent to
our customers and thus decrease costs that are incurred in the
printing, warehousing and shipment of literature.
The Machine
 The PROLIFIQ platform was launched in late February at the
National Sales Meeting and we have been tracking both literature
fulfillment via RRD and PROLIFIQ usage to date to ascertain if we
are meeting our objective of reducing cost and the distribution of
paper literature.
