Have the conversation. Listen. Gather customer and team input, then define the project through a collaborative, consultative effort, creating a plan that delivers the results that meet the client’s goals and yours.
Through a mix of file submission technologies, campaign and customer relationship management, VDP printing, MIS tools and services, start the jobflow process by defining what success looks like – from strategy to completion.

Manage
No project starts with the finished product.
Project management ensures that the outcome aligns to customer expectations. Every step in the project needs to ensure that the goals and demands are being met in order to deliver the customer’s expectations and yours.
The failure to ensure your entire jobflow is defined before it starts from estimating, order management and scheduling, to finishing and fulfillment is as critical as the actual file setup itself.
Learn more about our manage capabilities to meet those expectations in our Consulting & Professional Services, and Business Management & MIS solutions.

Quality is in the details.
Every step in the job preparation requires precision steps to ensure quality, from logistics to imposition and color management. Technology itself isn’t a guarantee to success.
Bleeds, colors, varnish, finishing: every process has a solution.
How each of these processes are addressed can be the difference between profit and loss, achieving print quality and attaining customer confidence.

Produce
Make it happen.
Nobody likes surprises. You have now set the customer expectations and need to deliver.
At some point the button is pushed and you need to be sure you’ve planned for the required materials, load capacity and the correct output device.
Meeting customer expectations means delivering a finished, quality product, on spec, on time and on budget for any segment or scenario: offset, digital, transactional or in-plant.

Exceed expectations.
Doing what you promised to do meets your customer’s expectations, increases client satisfaction and aligns to your company goals.
Output quality should be a given, fulfillment and delivery is another.
Tightening up your processes beyond the production and delivery of the finished product through reporting, billing and financial governance means better end-to-end business management and overall success.
