EPS PARTNERS WITH HP INDIGO
Global technology provider for print and packaging companies, eProductivity Software (ePS), has unveiled a partnership with HP, at Dscoop Edge, which has just taken place in St Louis.
The new partnership between the world’s biggest print and packaging software developer and HP Indigo is aimed to provide an integrated solution that takes workflow processes forward and drives operational efficiency
The companies say it signifies a significant step toward achieving a touch-free workflow, aligning with the ePS commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions to its valued customers.
US print and fulfilment operation Point B Solutions volunteered to participate as an early adopter, embracing the opportunity to optimise its operations and enhance customer experiences by streamlining pre-press efforts and digital job processes.
The ePS Midmarket Print Suite, with Pace ERP at its core, is a leading software offering purpose-built for commercial, wide-format, and in-plant printers.
In addition to the seamless integration between ePS Midmarket Suite and HP Indigo, Point B Solutions is embracing other innovative technologies, including Enfocus Switch and Pitstop Server. By incorporating these solutions, Point B Solutions aims to establish a comprehensive and streamlined workflow, automating pre-flighting and approval processes while eliminating manual interactions.
Bob Raus, America's category manager at HP Industrial Print, emphasised the significance of automation, stating, "The level of automation is a key indicator of a print service provider's potential for business growth and success. HP is delighted to deliver on the promise of systems integration with eProductivity Software, benefiting our customers and the industry as a whole."
The anticipated benefits of this comprehensive automation strategy are substantial time savings and enhanced productivity. Point B Solutions estimates a potential reduction of up to three days per job in the pre-press process, with even greater efficiencies for more complex projects. This transformative automation empowers Point B Solutions to redirect resources towards higher-value tasks, delivering customer satisfaction and fueling business growth.
Looking ahead, Point B Solutions and ePS envision an era of enhanced efficiency and automation, facilitated by the successful integration of ePS Pace ERP and HP Indigo. By working backward, starting from the press and moving upward, Point B Solutions has effectively established a robust connection between these cutting-edge technologies, setting a new benchmark within the industry.
Doug Haefele, VP of Technology Solutions at Point B Solutions, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "We're thrilled to see the advantages of a more open-source world between ePS and HP. This strategic partnership opens boundless opportunities for operational efficiency and innovation for printers like us. We can't wait to see where this collaboration can take process automation and move the industry forward."
The companies say that the partnership between ePS and Point B Solutions exemplifies a shared commitment to embracing innovation and driving industry-wide advancements, and that together, they are at the forefront of delivering unparalleled printing solutions, fuelled by advanced workflow automation.
