November 10, 2009-- Digital Technology International (DTI&trade) has announced that it has signed a multimillion dollar agreement with Cox Media Group (a division of Cox Enterprises) to install DTI Circulation, it's advanced suite of circulation, distribution, marketing, and reporting software. This deal covers all Cox Media Group publications: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Cox Ohio Publications (Dayton), Palm Beach Newspapers Inc., and the Austin American-Statesman.

"Cox Media Group selected DTI for its new circulation management system after a thorough study of the market," said Gregory Morrison, vice president and CIO, Cox Enterprises. "Implementing DTI Circulation at Cox will enable us to implement best practices across our newspaper properties, realize cost-effective consolidation of operations, and facilitate better business strategies from gaining better business intelligence from a single DTI Circulation system."

Representatives from Cox's daily newspapers participated in an evaluation process to select the best solution they could find for improving circulation management. Each of the four newspapers is currently using different circulation systems from four different system suppliers. This consolidation onto a new circulation system is a significant project for both Cox and DTI, and will allow Cox to realize competitive advantages in the markets they serve.

DTI Circulation will cost-effectively improve every aspect of circulation and distribution at the Cox publications--from how subscriptions are processed, managed and renewed--to how products are marketed, billed and delivered.

"We're eager to begin implementing DTI Circulation," said Christopher Caneles, vice president, operations, Palm Beach Newspapers, Inc. "It will give our newspapers significant functional improvements compared to our current applications, will eliminate hard-to-maintain custom code and moves us another step toward eliminating expensive mainframe platforms found in several CMG locations."

"DTI has enjoyed a successful partnership with Cox Enterprises since the early 1990's," said Dan Paulus, vice president, sales, DTI. "This DTI Circulation project extends that strong partnership and provides the most tools for Cox Media Group to collectively cut costs, and increase efficiencies at all of their publications."

DTI Circulation is already used by more than 1,000 newspapers around the world.
