ST. LOUIS, MO, Jan 09, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --Cass Information Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: CASS), a leader in back office BPO solutions for complex payables, has acquired Waste Reduction Consultants, Inc., one of the fastest-growing providers of environmental expense management services. The acquisition extends Cass' portfolio of services for controlling facility-related expenses and accelerates Cass' leadership position as a back-office business processor.

Waste Reduction Consultants serves multi-location businesses by reducing operating costs through information-driven optimization and procurement of waste removal services.
