MIS: Upgrade or Replace?

Getting an MIS to operate smoothly with other systems is important because margins are smaller, runs are shorter, and the ability to absorb prepress overhead costs based on the press run is tough. The slim margins of printing profitability can be quickly lost due to inefficiencies, waste, and mistakes. Since the value of work-in-process increases as the job progresses through manufacturing, analysis and control becomes even more critical during the final stages of a job. When all the business parts work in harmony, they can reap synergistic results.
