EPMS (Enterprise Print Management Solutions), Middleboro, MA, a market- leading developer of print MIS, and Onpoint, Newmarket, NH  a premier developer of multi-carrier shipping software  for the printing industry, announce the release of a robust enhancement to the bi-directional integration between their two applications.  

Printing companies increasingly look for end to end workflow solutions that will streamline job processing for the entire life cycle of a job.  The enhanced integration between Enterprise MIS and Connect Shipping from Onpoint allows production personnel to ship orders faster and with increased accuracy. Scheduled shipment information flows seamlessly from Enterprise MIS to Connect Shipping to enable one-click shipments. Tracking details flow back to Enterprise MIS providing automated status changes and shipping visibility for all stakeholders. Multi-carrier shipping functionality puts the power of best-way shipping into the hands of shipping personnel allowing them to choose the best rates and transit times on every order. 

Mark Andersen, President of EPMS , sees real value to its clients  in providing integrations with products from other printing industry vendors.  “It is essential to the business success of our clients that we collaborate with committed integration partners whose products complement our Enterprise MIS.  We have worked with Onpoint to create a bi-directional integration that will allow shipping staff to quickly and efficiently select the best carrier, based on job information in the Enterprise database. The integration provides printing companies with the tools to streamline and shorten the shipping process and eliminate errors associated with manual intervention .  Increasingly, our customers want and expect an end to end solution.  That means that the entire product lifecycle, from the customer placing the order, to order approval, production, billing and shipping, needs to be automated . 

Onpoint President, Jack Perry believes that the enhanced integration will create immediate process improvement and cost savings for Enterprise MIS users. "We spent a lot of time on the enhancement to our connector with Enterprise MIS," explains Jack Perry. "We created a workflow that is seamless and creates shipping process that is reliable, efficient and scalable; important elements for printers who need to do more with less time and resources."
