Johns Hopkins APL Streamlines Envelope Production

With six full-timers, one part-timer and two assigned customer service reps, the JHU-APL in-plant serves both the university and the government sector. It has an operating budget of $1.5 million and is a 100 percent cost recovery operation.

Adding the Illumina, which it bought from Atlantic Graphic Systems for $16,500, isn’t the extent of the in-plant’s expansion plans. In the next couple of months, the shop also plans to purchase a UV coater.
