Printcafe Conference Examines Success Models

Words of Wisdom

An "Industry Titans" session included presentations by CEOs Amos Michelson (Creo), Yves Rogivue (MAN Roland USA), Paul Reilly (Mail-Well) and Standard Register Document Management President Mark E. Little.

Reilly encouraged the gathering to adopt computer-integrated manufacturing, but warned, "You cannot automate a process unless your underlying processes are under control." Little told the group of Standard's refocus, investing $6 million in 6 Sigma and ISO certification. "Integrate the print value chain," he admonished. "As printers, we cannot be successful with the failed model of isolated shops."
