CHICAGO (PRNewswire) — PepsiAmericas, the world's second-largest manufacturer, seller and distributor of PepsiCo beverages, is getting greener with its new Electronic Bill Presentment & Payment (EBPP) solution provided by OBRIEN and SolvEdge. OBRIEN/SolvEdge is a strategic technology partner that helps companies gain efficiency and reduce costs. The PepsiAmericas customized EBPP solution (https://www.pepsiamericasbillpay.com), which features 24/7 self-service billing/reporting and a robust communication business solution, was developed in response to customer requests for a self-service electronic payment option. The OBRIEN/SolvEdge EBPP solution was recently released to approximately 50,000 PepsiAmericas customers and received a very positive response.
"Selecting OBRIEN/SolvEdge as a provider was easy," said Bill Holada, PepsiAmericas' Director of Financial Services. "We recognize the shared concern for environmental sustainment, attention to detail and proven track record of helping organizations improve customer service and cash flow management."
The OBRIEN/SolvEdge joint venture is in step with the growth of the digital world and the increased focus on productivity and efficiency in today's competitive environment.
