Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) August 15, 2006

BrightWave Marketing, Inc. a leading e-mail Marketing and Customer Relationship Services firm, announced today a major new client has joined its client roster. Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (NYSE: ACS), a premier provider of business process outsourcing and information technology solutions, has signed an agreement with BrightWave Marketing to manage its e-mail Marketing programs for the Georgia Health Partnership (GHP) and its Medicaid program.

ACS is using BrightWave Marketing, Inc. to enhance their communication strategy to reach all Medicaid health care providers. ACS chose to use text email messages delivered on a weekly basis as part of “push” communication instead of expecting providers to go to a Web site and “pull” information. BrightWave Marketing was able to help ACS come up with an effective solution that meets the technology limitations of all recipients.

BrightWave Marketing will work closely with ACS in delivering timely messages and transactional information via e-mail Marketing programs to Georgia Medicaid Providers. The resulting communications program is designed to provide relevant information and tips to Georgia Medicare Providers in a quick and easy to use format.

"We chose BrightWave Marketing, Inc. because they were priced competitively, were responsive and knew what we needed," said Chris Keith, Director of Operations for the Georgia Health Partnership. "BrightWave has made the process incredibly easy. The health care providers are receiving information as they need it and we are receiving fewer customer service calls as a result."

Simms Jenkins, Principal of BrightWave Marketing, commented, “ACS is a national leader in state healthcare program administration and we are honored that we can assist them in delivering high quality electronic solutions for their clients. ACS is a dynamic company and a leader in its field, much like BrightWave Marketing aims to be. The result should be a partnership that provides engaging and efficient email communication programs.”
