Two years ago at Brown University, Berlow undertook the trying task of centralizing all printing under the in-plant's control. She created a partnership program with preferred vendors, reducing the vendor list from 300 to 40. She was also able to migrate 36 percent of the offset work to her in-plant's digital systems, reducing production time by 40 percent. Quality control has improved as a result of print centralization.
