“Best Practices for Workflow Automation” Case Studies Thursday, May 22nd at 1 pm Eastern time

Monday 12. May 2008 - IPA's Workflow Team returns with an examination of methods used by successful companies to improve their production efficiency.

No vendors, no hype – this time we’ll go straight to the users themselves to find out what is working and what’s not. This dynamic one-hour webinar will feature extended interviews with actual print and premedia professionals, focusing on their recent innovations and real-life experiences. Workflow methods, software installations & hardware upgrades will all be covered in these in-depth case studies.

Your host for this event is Hal Hinderliter, leader of IPA’s Workflow Team and experienced workflow consultant and educator. He’ll get right to the point during this webinar, through compelling case studies that reveal what it takes to successfully adopt and implement new workflows.
