The EFI™ software system directs large or complex print jobs to
the numerous FedEx Office Centralized Production Centers (CPCs).
FedEx Office team members at the Network Fulfillment Center can now
quickly view and assess the print production volume within the
network, and easily direct print jobs to more than 100 color and
monochrome digital presses across the country. The improved system
has increased production efficiency by more than 15 percent.
“With the production workflow EFI helped to develop and
implement, we are able to eliminate manual processes and send
commercial jobs directly into the production queue promptly after
receipt of the file,” said Aimee DiCicco, senior vice president of
Sales for FedEx Office. “This streamlined efficiency is critical
for our commercial print customers whose printing needs constantly
evolve and often require 24-7 support.”
The enhanced system then allows the FedEx Office Network
Fulfillment Center to manage the distribution of print jobs
originating in one location to be sent for completion at production
locations closer to the customer’s point of need, leveraging the
vast FedEx Office national network for centralized, regionalized
and localized printing, based on distribution requirements. FedEx
Office established the system by integrating several technologies
with EFI workflow software and print servers.
“The print production architecture FedEx Office has implemented
is the new frontier in production management,” according to Gabriel
Matsliach, senior vice president and general manager, EFI
Productivity Software. “It is very rare when, on a large-scale
project, business processes and production processes are completely
and truly integrated and automated into a single unified, smart
workflow.”
The convenient network of digitally-connected FedEx Office
retail locations, centralized production centers and
around-the-clock online services help large businesses improve
their productivity and maintain total control of their print supply
chain. FedEx Office is seamlessly linked to the FedEx global
shipping network, providing the speed and reliability of the FedEx
brand to ensure on time delivery of all printed materials. To learn
