IPG spoke with new Public Printer Robert Tapella recently to learn more about his vision for the Government Printing Office.

“Looking at us as just an in-plant, number one skews the numbers, and number two, it’s kind of a very narrow focus of a piece of the business that GPO has.”

>>> GPO’s Future Digital System

GPO is soon to launch its Future Digital System (FDSys), designed to automate the collection and dissemination of electronic information from all three branches of the federal government, using electronic markings to indicate the authenticity of data and to identify revised versions. Eventually, all known federal documents, printed or digital, will be cataloged, authenticated and entered into the system, and content will be available for Internet viewing, downloading and printing.
