Yes Virginia, You Do Need a MIS
BY JOANN WHITCHER
This article originally appeared in My Print Resource
In today’s competitive business environment, a management information system (MIS) is as necessary to survival and success as the quality of the image you output on your printing device.
Nor does the size and type of your shop give you a pass—whether your shop is a five-person wide-format operation, a 15-person digital print enterprise, or a 70-person offset-digital facility offering a cacophony of services—running MIS software is a must.
“Commercial printers, whether they’re digital, litho, sign, or any other should invest in MIS software to streamline their workflow,” said Shawn Brown, business development manager, P.M.I.S, developers of E-Pro Print. “It is a tool that gives them control to better manage their operations as well as a helping hand in boosting revenue. MIS is made to reduce the workload and increase productivity in every department of the business.”
Stephen McWilliam, EVP for Avanti, agrees. “Implemented properly, it becomes the ‘system of record’ for everything: estimating, customer service, finance, and production. The key value-add of a print MIS system like Avanti Slingshot is that it will give you your true cost and profit on every single job,” he said. <<read more>>
