PLANNING
Some
custom projects are as straightforward as a custom size brochure
or catalog. Others may involve multiple raw materials, specialized inks, multiple
coatings, critical brand color matching and complex manufacturing processes
that may utilize numerous vendors. Source can plan, produce and deliver very
difficult projects under the pressure of very tight delivery schedules.
TECHNOLOGY
Technology
is evolving quickly these days, and it is critical to stay current with
emerging production methods that may make a significant difference to our
customers' product costs and quality. What was state-of-the-art just 2 years
ago may not be competitive today. We are constantly searching for more
effective technology, and it is our job to employ that technology to directly
benefit our clients.
PURCHASING
Source
buys most component materials (paper, plastics, cutting and molding
dies, cartons etc...) directly from the mills/diemakers to avoid material mark-up
at any manufacturing facility. We even contract our own freight services
to ensure no mistakes are made on critical deliveries. Since we buy materials
directly, we can guarantee quality and drive down costs further.
EFFICIENCY
Traditional
manufacturers often "force" products to run on their equipment to
pay the bills, even though that product may not be an ideal fit for them. Naturally,
this creates inefficiencies and may affect pricing, quality and production time lines.
Source aligns your products with the most efficient production equipment available
to ensure maximum efficiency. |
