Print Management
Print Management is more than just buying and selling print! Properly done, it encompasses every aspect of a clients business. Blackstripe’s success has been built on thoroughly understanding our client’s needs and business goals and transforming these into effective and efficient print procurement strategies.
Utilising our database of printers, which we have carefully selected over the years, we can source the best print process suited for your needs, from small format digital to B2, B1 and Web processes and due to our purchasing power, guarantee cost savings! We continually monitor and evaluate the selected printer’s to ensure quality is of the highest standard at all times and the latest technology is used to ensure cost efficiency.
Our own bespoke print management system provide a seamless, concise and efficient reporting structure ensuring that quality is never compromised and all delivery deadlines are met.
It manages stocks, ensures correct stock rotation, reduces distribution costs, reports on cost centre usage and reduces inventory.
Blackstripe assign an Account Manager to every order so you will have one point of contact from initial enquiry to proof of delivery. Your Account Manager will be able to manage stocks, monitor usage, check deliveries and approve artwork at all times.
