Not the State Printer You Used to Know
A Giant Among In-plants
With $34,345,000 in annual revenue, the Washington Department of Printing is one of the country’s largest in-plants. (It ranked fifth by sales on last month’s IPG tally of large in-plants.)
Devis’ predecessors in the role of state printer, Larry Weber and George Morton, did much to turn the operation into a model in-plant. Morton brought the concept of customer service to the department, while Weber made it a leader in technology; the PRTonline Web portal he designed remains hugely successful as a way for agencies and the public to order printed products.
