E-mail Subscription Management enables public sector organizations to cut thousands or even millions of dollars in costs while improving communication with citizens and other stakeholders. Savings occur as newsletters, bulletins, minutes, agendas, press releases, and other mass mailings or regular communications are distributed electronically to e-mail subscribers rather than via paper and fax. GovDocs works in cooperation with public sector organizations to identify savings opportunities.
