Significans Automation Releases S-Launch Software
Significans Automation (Significans.com), an industry leader in highly customized workflow automation and integration solutions, has unveiled S-Launch software, calling it "the ultimate submission portal to get data into your business." S-Launch is a platform that has been built to drastically streamline and trigger critical workflow processes and reduce manual data entry. Easily connectable with full APIs, it will easily integrate and enhance the potential value of current software systems in a myriad of environments.
"We're filling a huge gap in the printing industry with S-Launch," said Marc Raad, President of Significans Automation. "In our day-to-day workflow automation software deployments for printing and packaging print businesses, our team discovered a lot of common issues that are still stressing out our customers. These included time-consuming, error-prone manual data entry, too many human touchpoints, the use of spreadsheets, collecting data in different forms from multiple sources, and so on. Though ideal for printers, S-Launch is designed to help any business standardize its data use, then streamline and automate all their critical processes. Best of all, pricing is affordable because it's based on site usage rather than a flat rate per user. Plus, it's hosted in the Cloud, so there's no need for additional software or hardware."
S-Launch's unique advantages
S-Launch is a dynamic, fully customizable "Form Builder" limited only by a user's imagination. Businesses can do whatever they want with it - create a contact form, an order-submission portal, a request-for-quote page, and so on. Any data that a user needs to enter can be done easily through their tablet, desktop computer, or mobile device. The Form Builder allows businesses to take a more efficient standardized approach to their data, then subsequently streamline and automate all their key processes, saving a massive amount of time while reducing costly errors.
"The new S-Launch software is completely modular, configurable, mobile-ready, workflow-enabled and API-first, allowing for integration with various other existing systems," said Sean Davis, Significans' Vice-President of Technology. "An easy-to-use, drag-and-drop interface means that anyone can create a form. No technical knowledge or special skills are required, and the form can be tailored for different product types and customer needs."
With its API-first architecture, S-Launch integrates effortlessly with leading workflow systems. For example, the extensive list of API calls can be used on the back end within Enfocus Switch to interact with S-Launch, upload files, modify a user, create a group, and so on. Built into the foundation of S-Launch are two other unique features. "Task Chains" drives everything in the application for advanced workflow automation. Plus, S-Launch also includes an "Asset Store" where users can store and share files.
S-Launch pilot transforms online printer's business
Stickerbeat is a Toronto-based web-to-print business specializing in custom stickers, magnets, labels, and decals. It handles a huge amount of incoming, time-consuming telephone orders each day, in addition to online requests from Shopify, and has been using S-Launch as a pilot project for one year. Basically, the Significans team set up an ultra-efficient "backdoor" ordering system to process these error-prone phone orders. Now, when Stickerbeat employees receive a phone call, they carefully input the information into a customized electronic form, upload the files, then follow the same procedure Significans previously implemented to process online orders from Shopify.
"Right now, with our current 4 employees in prepress, I feel we could easily achieve $20 million dollars in yearly sales without adding more staff," said Bruce Petroff, Corporate Production Control Manager and Analyst at Stickerbeat. "If we didn't have this highly customized workflow software set-up from Significans, I would likely have to spend another $250,000 in labor just to do what we were doing before. The technology has allowed us to generate a proof within 40 seconds of an order arriving. Our entire proofing process has now been reduced to 5% of the time it used to take prepress to process orders. Today they can handle 400 orders a day instead of the previous 150, so our efficiency is up by 65% - 70%. Plus, costly human errors have been cut by about 90%."
