Who should be the document signer/notifying company be for a notice that's for a capital company?

TexasFactoringMonthly Notice

Our company helps finance our customer's invoices and we work closely with another factoring company. We are working to get notices sent out for the invoices that we have taken over and want to confirm what the notifiers' information should be on these notices. Should it be the factoring company's name and address, or should it be the company's information that has actually done the work on the project. Additionally, most notices require a signature from a representative. Should the document signer be from the company that did the work, or can it be my name representing the capital company.

Generally, notices relating to the mechanics lien process should be sent with the company information of the party who performed the work. This makes sense because, ultimately, it's that party's rights that will be preserved and leveraged, if need be. As for who signs notice documents - that should be less important as long as the party doing the signing is authorized to sign. It's common for a business to assign rights and agency status to other parties/businesses. So, signing for another business shouldn't be a big deal as long as the relationship is identified in the document being signed, and as long as the party signing the document is authorized to do so.
