docas[order] enables output centres to implement efficient processes in the area of "job management". Internal job scheduling and handling is often carried out "manually" (with handwritten notes) or at best with the assistance of all-purpose tools such as Excel to support internally written solutions. Resource scheduling is carried out unsystematically and is based on empirical knowledge, which means the quality of planning and execution depends exclusively on the quality of those carrying out the tasks at the time. Whilst the chosen processes are comprehensible they are fraught with risk.
Output centres are under continued pressure to improve both service and cost effectiveness.
So how can docas[order] help? The answer lies in the processes. Efficient processes enable you to maximise existing resources which results in lower costs and/or increased turnover with improved margins.
docas[order] is a cost effective modular business software product, covering the “end-to-end” processes in a print/computer centre (or an output centre). docas[order] aids both users and management in the efficient processing of print jobs cost-effectively and on time. Planning functions ensure the systematic, documented scheduling of all jobs therefore resulting in the efficient utilisation of all available resources.
docas[order] manages all related costs incurred and allocates these to the appropriate function
through a coordinated and seamless integrated process resulting in effective management
information.
Most importantly docas[order] is adaptable to take into account the idiosyncrasies of your company's business and production processes.
