Integrated Production Workflow Solutions: “Killer Apps” for an Industry in Transition


Integrated Production Workflow Solutions: "Killer Apps" for an Industry in Transition
 
The printing and publishing industry is an industry in transition. Technological change has contributed to the commoditization of print, and the growth of electronic pages is impacting total print volume, leading to overcapacity and industry consolidation. Print customers are demanding a greater range of services from print providers, including non-print services and electronic documents. This all leads to a fewer print providers offering a greater range of services.

To meet the demands of today's customers, print service providers must embrace a range of production workflow solutions that will enable them to not only offer more services, but deliver them competently, cost effectively, and efficiently. These solutions will differentiate savvy print providers and drive growth and profitability. 

The maturation of the printing industry and the growth of the electronic document also represents a significant opportunity to equipment and software vendors, who will provide the integrated solutions that will enable the industry transition.

Successful solutions vendors will be prepared to assist print providers with meeting new challenges by offering complementary services of their own, including training, integration services, and sales and marketing support. This means that solutions vendors must have an extensive understanding of printing and publishing industry trends and customer requirements.

The preceding is an excerpt from CAP Ventures' White Paper entitled Integrated Production Workflow Solutions: "Killer Apps" for an Industry in Transition. Please visit our Web site to view the complete document.
