Taking on the Data Center

"We're saving a million dollars a year right now by the merger," reports Robert Tierney, purchasing operations director at the Allstate Insurance Print Communications Center, in Wheeling, Ill. His offset and distribution operation teamed up with Allstate's output processing center on May 30 of last year. In addition to offset printing, he is also responsible for distribution—which includes mailing, shipping and inventory delivery—forms supply and management of the building.
