SAN MATEO, CA -- Collabria, Inc., the only true supply chain solution for enterprise-wide print creation, production and delivery, announced that it has signed on more than 1000 companies to its PrintCommerce(tm) application service and is currently logging tens of thousands of transactions each month. According to industry analysts, printing -- including total costs of development, distribution and inventory management -- can consume up to 15% of revenue. PrintCommerce customers receive significant cost savings and efficiencies in the creation, production and delivery of printed materials that range from business cards, data sheets and corporate brochures, to logo-imprinted premiums and specialty items. Dow Corning Corporation, for example, chose Collabria PrintCommerce to automate literature fulfillment of more than 2000 inventory items with thousands of requests per month. Using the Collabria system, Dow Corning documented a 25% reduction in warehouse and fulfillment costs, a reduction in delivery time from two weeks to three days, better tracking, fewer back orders and major productivity gains. According to Ann Wisniewski, Dow Corning's Global Manager of Visual Identity, Graphics, Translations and Printing, "The system allows Dow Corning to streamline processes and minimize costs-enabling Dow Corning to work faster and more productively and, ultimately, to better serve our global customers." "Because of all the hidden costs involved in printing, most corporations are not aware of the size of their enterprise-wide print spend," said Donald Armagnac, Collabria's President and CEO. "Collabria's PrintCommerce solution reduces costs and increases efficiencies across the entire supply chain, with measurable benefits to document creators, print buyers and print sellers. Moreover, it's an open system that enables companies to leverage investments in their existing applications, delivering enterprise-wide efficiencies, availability, scalability and security."
