Issues

With multiple contributors making many changes and corrections, finalising a complex document is a very fraught, time consuming and an expensive process. With ever increasing pressure to deliver results and with remote contributors, errors are often introduced (a case of more haste, less speed). Traditional methods of proofing and delivery are now considered outmoded and expensive. There is also a growing need to get printed content to the corporate web site, seamlessly. The cost of producing publications is always under scrutiny with an eye to improving the bottom line.

The solution

Automatrix delivers RingMaster to tackle these issues directly. The RingMaster solution is proven to offer:

• Significantly reduced turnaround times - faster proofs and finished job
• Streamlined process and disciplines - dramatically reducing effort and repetition
• Enhanced collaboration - broaden participation and increase accuracy and productivity
• Rock solid security - complete regulation of all permitted users and version control
• Greatly reduced costs - fewer mistakes, corrections and proofs and content ready for the web
• Reduced environmental impact - cutting material and delivery consumption

Project managers can see at a glance, using a visual planning view, where any element of any document is in the process and can identify time spent with each element by any particular contributor or author.
