Our integrated print fulfillment services include the planning and cost effective execution of the supply chain of printed materials and information from the point of origin to the point of utilization. We can supply digital print-on-demand or just-in-time offset print with off-the-shelf inventory in quantities desired by the end user, packaged and quickly delivered in the manner requested. Our print fulfillment services allow for the optimum method of production and fulfillment from long run produced and stored inventory to digital print-on-demand produced upon request from end user through a series of networked facilities. This allows customers to avoid fixed costs and capital expenditures in maintaining internal operations while converting to an entirely variable activity cost basis.
Kitting
Start with a pocket folder, add a three-fold brochure, include a stitched booklet, combine an application form, and you have the recipe for an effective kit. Kitting and fulfillment have long been intensely manual processes, but we have implemented quality programs and technologies to create automated operations that meet the most exacting standards.
What can we kit? Special promotion packages, new store kits, product launches, customer welcome kits, franchisee signage and supplies, insurance and bank follow-up packets, cross-selling literature and custom rate cards, and targeted communications of all kinds. We can pack and deliver a truck loads, a pallet, a carton, or an envelope; on its way, on budget, on schedule. We regularly stage, package, and distribute products for mass distributions.
The Three Types of Kitting Services:
- Standard assembly services are applied when kits can be assembled and then stored for future distribution. For this type of kit, we would determine the acceptable stocking level and assemble the appropriate amount.
- Custom fulfillment services are applied when kits cannot be pre-assembled. Typically there is at least one component of the kit that must be personalized for each recipient. Minimum stocking levels of the components are maintained in the assembly area and replenished as necessary.
- E-fulfillment services involve combining printed and electronic components into a single master item. Electronic kitting allows us to assemble materials by reaching into digital asset libraries to pull the required images and kit them together.
