Unified workflow and production systems
Most printers have responded to stiff competition and shrinking margins with a varied approach: increase automation to reduce labour, cut waste, implement new systems, and differentiate with new service offerings like digital print capabilities and asset management. Each addition adds a new level of complexity, and each tends to live on its own, with a disconnected workflow and isolated automation. They don’t exchange information and can’t be centrally controlled.
Kodak’s Unified Workflow solution brings all these systems together and creates a single cohesive workflow. It is one comprehensive solution that integrates and unifies the many aspects of business and production, colour and data. It can change the way your business operates. It can support your growth into new service offerings and new markets. It can transform the way you interact with print buyers and specifiers, and fundamentally improve the way they perceive you and your business.
