How the Bigger Get Better

According to Weissmann, part of the success of that workflow might depend on enrolling the client in one of Schawk's new brand management programs, such as PaRTS™ (Production and Resource Tracking System). "By implementing an open, online asset management and project tracking environment, the client can monitor the job 24/7, wherever there is Web access or a phone line. From the moment a new product goes into design and has been assigned a UPN, the client can check status, receive e-mail notifications of schedule changes, and view annotated visual representations of the work in progress. Essentially, the client can 'come to' the job at any point in the cycle, rather than waiting to have it sent to them by a CSR."
