SAN DIEGO, CA – June 9, 2025 – Solimar Systems, Inc., a leading developer of customer communications and document workflow solutions, today announced that Mail-Gard, a division of IWCO, specializes in business continuity and disaster recovery solutions for critical communication operation, has successfully scaled its critical healthcare communications operations by 2-3 times using Solimar's Chemistry™ Platform. The implementation enables Mail-Gard to maintain its flawless 100% disaster recovery success rate while dramatically expanding its daily healthcare communications capabilities.


Since its inception in 1996, Mail-Gard has maintained an impressive 100% success rate in supporting declared disaster recovery events and has been the trusted partner for business continuity and disaster recovery services, including many Solimar Systems customers. Through its strategic partnership with a major healthcare provider and the implementation of Solimar's comprehensive workflow solutions, Mail-Gard has transformed its Warminster, Pennsylvania, facility into a high-volume healthcare disaster recovery print communications powerhouse.


"Mail-Gard's success demonstrates the transformative power of intelligent workflow automation in critical communications," said Mary Ann Rowan, Chief Experience Officer at Solimar Systems. "By leveraging our Chemistry Platform, they've achieved what many consider impossible – tripling capacity without proportionally increasing resources while maintaining perfect compliance standards. Their ability to seamlessly transfer production between facilities showcases how the right technology partnership can revolutionize operations in highly regulated industries."


The Solimar solution includes several key components:

  • ReadyPDF®: Automatically optimizes PDF files from various sources, dramatically reducing changeover times
  • Rubika®: Digitally retrofits data and documents, generating dynamic and optimal PDFs for production print and mail on various continuous feed presses, cut-sheet printers, and finishing devices
  • SOLitrack™: Provides enterprise print management, comprehensive job tracking, alerts, and reporting for HIPAA compliance and real-time operational transparency
  • Solimar® Print Director™ Enterprise (SPDE): Serves as a universal translator and workflow controller, normalizing diverse job formats and intelligently routing based on requirements


"Solimar Systems has provided not just software but a platform and support model that empowers us to meet the highest standards for reliability, compliance, and responsiveness," said Brian Murphy, Director of Operations at Mail-Gard. "They're an integral partner and key part of our strategic investments in IWCO’s Warminster and Chanhassen production facilities."


Key achievements from the implementation include:

  • 2-3x capacity increase without expanding labor or facility footprint
  • Seamless redundancy between the Warminster, PA, and Chanhassen, MN, facilities
  • Enhanced workflow efficiency through automated file preparation and reduced manual intervention
  • Comprehensive compliance support with detailed tracking and audit-ready reporting
