TFP Data Systems and Apex Business Systems Expand Partnership to Maximize Efficiencies and Enhance Customer Service

TFP Data Systems and Apex Business Systems, two of the nation’s market leaders for government-approved forms and compliance solutions, announced an expanded partnership to further align their businesses and better serve their customers.

In recent years, the two well-established sister companies have collaborated on product development, manufacturing and warehousing. The expanded partnership will build on this dynamic relationship and integrate more of the expertise, resources and customer focus the companies share.

“The alliance of TFP and Apex represents almost 91 years of combined experience,” said Rick Roddis, president, TFP Data Systems and Apex Business Systems. “Capitalizing on each other’s strengths puts us in a unique position to expand our product and service capabilities, in addition to exploring new, value-added solutions for our print brokers, dealers, distributors and resellers.”

Among those value-added solutions is ComplyRight E-file solutions. In the coming months, TFP and Apex will promote two key services to meet the emerging trend for quick and accurate electronic filing: a customizable e-file website and “print and mail” W-2 and 1099 processing.

“Our businesses complement each other significantly, making this alignment a very smart move,” added Neville Johnson, vice president of sales, Apex Business Systems. “Just as important, I can reassure our customers that they will continue to receive the same excellent service and support they’ve come to expect. Meeting our customers’ needs will always be a top priority.”

A few changes will result from the expanded partnership, including relocating Southeast distribution to a state-of-the-art facility in Sunrise, Fla., and opening a new office for sales and customer service in Houston. Together, the companies will continue to operate two manufacturing facilities in California and Pennsylvania featuring the latest, specialized equipment for high-volume production. They will also maintain five strategically located shipping locations throughout the U.S. for efficient order fulfillment and prompt delivery.
