Gordon Ryan director of design, printing and fulfillment services for the New York State Bar Association brings several lifetimes’ worth of experience to a brand new in-plant facility.

NYSBA is a private and independent 501(c)(6) nonprofit organization supported by the 76,000 attorneys and judges who form its membership. When Ryan signed on in June 2010, the association had recently relocated its print operation to a brand new, 21,000-square-foot off-site location. The site had been purpose-built to serve as the in-plant for an organization with a constant demand for high volumes of everything from ID cards to books. Even the HVAC system was designed specifically to support a printing facility.
