A Career In Transit

Levine says the in-plant has repurposed its prepress department to support non-traditional areas such as digital documents and animated web information, making the in-plant more valuable to the Transit Authority and to the public.

Levine often must justify why his operation can offer the same quality at a lower cost than a commercial printer—in a political town where someone's relative in the business wants lucrative government contracts. Invariably, his in-plant is supported because it is deliberately understaffed to keep overhead at a minimum while staying competitive.
