Winning the category of Best cost/benefit, Metzgerdruck is a family owned digital and commercial printer. Supported by alphagraph team GmbH and Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG they sought to eliminate down time, long press times and reduce overtime. Metzgerdruck implemented end-to-end process automation, eliminating a great deal of costs in a three-phase project that began in 2005, resulting in a five year ROI of 1,271.88%. CIPPI Review Panel Judge John Leininger of Clemson University said of Metzgerdruck’s application, “They were very specific about how they calculated the projected totals. I like that they were detailed enough to say what happened to each employee.”
