Improve In-Plant Customer Service

Real Time Quotes
Utilize pick-lists of customers, papers and equipment to make entering new orders
fast and simple. Provide instant quotes based upon your fixed costs for inventory,
services and leased copier click charges. Immediately print, fax or email quotes
to customers.
Current Job Status
Identify the current status and location of any job in production in just a few
clicks.
Accurate Scheduling
Provide accurate forecasts of job completion based upon actual availability of presses,
copiers, collators, staff and other printing resources.
Distribution List Management
Our print shop solutions contain a component specially designed for in-plant shops
to manage distribution lists. This allows for streamlined distribution to multiple
sites and automatic creation of Avery formatted labels.
Forms Management
Our print shop solutions allow for separate management of forms with live inventory,
back order fulfillment and online ordering.
Increase In-Plant Print Shop Revenue
By organizing your print shop and increasing print volume, you can take on more
of the jobs that are currently being outsourced to expensive shops. Ensure that
all costs are captured and billed to customers at cost or a percentage of markup.
Avoid general fund encroachment and reach cost-neutral management objectives.
Manage Growth without Extra Staff
You can greatly reduce administrative time spent invoicing, checking inventory,
scheduling and trying to get organized. Provide a better printing product at greater
volume.
Automate Billing
Your print shop staff and accounting department can recapture time wasted on manual
month-end reporting. With one click, comprehensive month-end reports can be created
and delivered or exported to accounting.
Track Inventory
Track all inventory and measure shrinkage and spoilage with built-in alerts to prompt
you to re-order when inventory levels have fallen below minimum levels.
Comprehensive Print Shop Auditing
Pull reports instantly to comprehensively audit your print shop. Evaluate equipment
productivity and profitability. Identify production bottlenecks and strategically
plan to maximize production. Use instant reports to track sales and inventory and
take the guess work out of new equipment purchases.
