Aspire Software is thrilled to announce that Forms Express has joined our Local Government portfolio with Valsoft Corp’s latest acquisition. Forms Express, serving local governments across Australia and New Zealand, is an industry leader in transactional mail, billing and payment services.
Forms Express has over 28 years of experience in delivery of transactional mail services on behalf of Local Government, Water Authorities and Utility clients in Australasia. Forms Express, as a leading provider in the region, has revolutionized the way in which bills are delivered and paid through its “eNotices” omni-channel platform, delivering millions of bills annually with instant online and scheduled payment options for their clients’ bill payers.
“Our ongoing innovation of electronic delivery and payment services has resulted in accelerating our client’s payment collection and providing them greater flexibility and visibility over the entire transactional process. I determined that for our future success, we needed to explore a strong partnership that would allow us to bring new products to market quicker,” stated Pat O’Connor, Forms Express’s CEO. “My goal was to find a strong partner with software and billing expertise who could continue our legacy of having a meaningful connection with our customers as well as someone that had an existing global presence in the space.”
Massive Growth Potential within Aspire
Forms Express has become the third company in the Local Government vertical to join Aspire Software – the operating group at Valsoft. Forms Express can further strengthen its presence in the Australasia region and expand globally by leveraging Aspire’s existing presence.
“Forms Express has developed a unique solution offering key services for local governments in Australia. We’re looking forward to bringing Forms Express to new heights,” said Jeffrey Messud, Operating Partner of Aspire Software, a division of Valsoft Corporation. “We, alongside the world-class management team currently in place at the business, will continue Forms Express’s legacy as long-term partners serving the billing and payment industry while enabling customers with the best technology to exceed expectations in product and services quality.”
