PRISM QTMS EXPANDS TO INDIAN SUBCONTINENT
Wednesday 16. April 2008 - Prism QTMS Continues to Expand Around the World Where Accurate Production Counts and Work in Process Control is Critical
Prism Group Holdings, Ltd. and S. L. Kulkarni Cyril Graphics Pvt. Ltd. have entered into an agreement for exclusive sales, distribution, and support of Prisms award winning suite of production management software and hardware tools, QTMS, throughout India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
“The Indian subcontinent is a strong print market and expectations are that it will continue to grow,” stated Filip Buyse, President and CEO of Prism. “It represents a growing market for QTMS because of the workflow efficiencies the local printers are seeking. S. L. Kulkarni Cyril Graphics is a respected representative of Goss International and has many customers throughout India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. We are pleased that they have chosen QTMS over all other production management solutions.”
“Since we personally know the major printers and publishers in India, Sri Lanka and Nepal, we feel confident of marketing QTMS products in our area,” said Surendra Kulkarni, Jt. Managing Director of S. L. Kulkarni Cyril Graphics. “These printers and publishers continue to streamline their manufacturing operations for better profitability. QTMS can help them significantly reduce their paper costs and cycle time.”
S. L. Kulkarni Cyril Graphics began serving the printing industry in 1981 at about the same time that QTMS was founded. The heritage of both is important to the success of this partnership in the marketplace. QTMS was chosen, in part, because it can operate as a stand-alone production management system, or integrated into a printers existing management information system (MIS). Its open, XML-based API is a strong asset in this marketplace as well as around the world. S. L. Kulkarnis and Cyril DSouzas vast experience with web printers will assure that QTMS is marketed to the proper demographics.
QTMS iQ, the latest version of QTMS, offers press, bindery, and finishing count control as well as plant-wide workflow and pallet control. iQ is available as a standalone production management system with job planning and machine loading functionality. It can be integrated into an existing management information system, or it can operate as a total business solution with the Prism Win MIS. QTMS iQ was a winner of the 2007 Must See Em Award. QTMS iQ and all other Prism MIS solutions support the JDF specification.
