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.
Rutledge also points out that should the university decide to bring mailing services back in house at some time in the future, it would not be hampered with inadequate equipment infrastructure and would have an opportunity to start the service fresh.
Rutledge acted as the plant manager for three months while she sought a qualified candidate for that role. She also hired two excellent press operators, one who was already experienced with the DI press, and another who knew the HP Indigo press but was also cross-trained on the DI. Currently the shop has three press operators.
