With pressure to lower costs, increase profits, and retain customer bases, package printers look to business production software to organize workflow.

System offers complete database

Primac's Production Module produces a database in which estimates created in the Job Estimating System (JES) are turned into production orders or "Job Jackets." The Shop Floor Information System (SFIS) collects data through numerical entry pads, wands, or touch screens. Information flows from SFIS and JES to the rest of Primac, which instantly updates files.—Primac Systems, www.primacsystems.com
