MOSINEE, Wis. — WAUSAU Financial Systems, a provider of payment and receivables processing solutions, today announced from its 2010 Customer Conference the winners of its Achievement Awards, recognizing customers who have leveraged WAUSAU products and solutions to improve, streamline or enhance their enterprise and customer service experience.

"Our customers’ entries are not only a testament to their innovation and achievement, but important statements of their success that demonstrate how they are finding ways to market and use solutions in creative ways to generate revenue and decrease costs," said Todd Juracek, president, Enterprise Payments Group. "We are proud that WAUSAU Financial Systems’ solutions continue to address the challenges our customers encounter and more importantly advance the way they operate and do business."

The customer achievement winners have received recognition for excellence in the following categories:

Going Paperless

The paperless category highlights a customer who has adopted WAUSAU solutions to remove paper from their organization and automate their processes to reduce cost and improve business efficiencies across the enterprise.

Reinventing Receivables

Category winner: U.S. Bank

The new demands brought about by changes in payments have challenged receivables management. This category acknowledges an innovative customer who has used WAUSAU products and solutions to keep operational costs lean, improve working capital management and/or expand into new markets.

Growing Deposits

Category winner: Comerica

The intense competition financial institutions face calls for differentiation, by way of serving corporate customers as a consultative and strategic business partner. The customer winner in this category has successfully utilized WAUSAU products and solutions to establish themselves in this way, while expanding their customer/member base and accelerating their commercial deposit growth efforts.

"Looking ahead," continued Juracek, "WAUSAU will continue to work with our customers to measure the success our solutions are delivering and validate returns on their investment.
