A New Lease on Life
To increase efficiency and cut costs, Brown University carried out a full-scale reorganization of its Graphic Services department. After adding equipment, and cross-training staff, the Rhode Island in-plant is busier than ever.
In March of 2011, Rutledge began in earnest the job of reorganizing Graphic Services from top to bottom.
"I know this runs against the grain for many print shops, but one thing I did during that reorganization was to shut down our mailing operation," she explains. "Our equipment was old and dated, and I knew that Intelligent Mail Barcodes were on the way. We couldn't handle that. It was better for the department and for the university to partner with off-campus experts for mailing services. That has worked out really well for us."
