OMAHA PRINT -- Tradition. . . and a Future

"With the implementation of Printcafe Logic's electronic job ticket early in our process, we began attaching estimates—which gives us comparisons of estimate to actual—further increasing our cost controls," Kinzer states. "The estimated hours also drive the Logic scheduling system.

"Becoming fully integrated also allows us to track quote won-loss percentages. We are actually able to provide a daily scorecard that show bookings, quotes, cash position, and we're doing a daily profit estimate," he adds. "We think we're about 90 percent of the way toward having a 100-percent digital workflow, especially in the front-end area. To get there, we still need to integrate our sales management system, MIS and our job tracking system. We're hopeful of doing that within the next year."
