Changing With the Times
By incorporating advanced workflow, proofing, video conferencing and digital signage technologies into its operation, The World Bank's Printing & Multimedia Services unit shows in-plants what their future may look like.
Incorporating a simple e-mail workflow brought important efficiency gains. We were able to backtrack all of our jobs to summarize the complete trail of interaction related to one particular order. Any person working on a certain job could go back on the e-mail trail and check for the succession of file changes, managers could track time stamps when jobs were submitted for production, and press operators could rely on e-mails to confirm approval notices. On the latter we found that a simple e-mail workflow could go a long way.
