Edmonton based print shop, Capital Colour, has invested in a new MIS system from Tharstern to help them grow profits and be more competitive by better understanding the costs associated to each job they produce to.

Capital Colour offer full-service printing with a team of more than twenty employees. They have the expertise to print and deliver everything from business cards, brochures and annual reports to mail campaigns, packaging and wall murals.

After looking into 4 different Management Information Systems, Capital Colour were filled with confidence by Tharstern. James Stride, Plant Manager at Capital Colour was impressed by the Tharstern team’s knowledge, experience and efficiency, “During the demos of the Tharstern program, it seemed to have a similar flow to our current system, but with many new functions that we didn’t have. Our main goal was to have a better and complete MIS System, Tharstern showed us they can provide that and give us a platform to build upon in the future.”

Capital Colour want to use Tharstern to better understand their costs and work out which jobs are the most profitable, as well as working out which areas they need to invest in or upgrade. This information will put them in a better position to meet the demands of the market and get ahead of their competition.

Ross Edwards, Customer Enrollment Manager at Tharstern is leading the partnership; “Capital Colour were keen to find a solution that was user friendly yet comprehensive. Like us, Capital Colour have a real focus on doing more with their MIS and integrating to help automate their business and support their growth aspirations.

Our experts in solutions and workflow really helped the Capital Colour team explore the capabilities and benefits of integration to PrePress and Press departments and think of new ways of working.”
