Océ, an international leader in digital document management and delivery, and Docapost, a European leader in document output management, today announce their new OEM partnership with Sefas Innovation. Océ PRISMAdesigner, powered by the new Open Print technology from Sefas Innovation, is an exciting new document design and composition solution which is extremely innovative in the area of collaborative workflows, object oriented design and enrichment of legacy applications. Océ PRISMAdesigner is the leading solution for direct mail, TransPromo and transactional printing applications in the professional printing environment.
Leading the document industry in document composition and enrichment
Océ and Docapost are proud to announce a far-reaching OEM partnership. Sefas Innovation, subsidiary of Docapost – the operational holding company of French Groupe La Poste, expert in workflow management and business process optimization – is the Océs software technology provider for a new ground breaking high-end document design and composition solution called Océ PRISMAdesigner. A sneak preview of the new technology can be seen at IPEX, 18th – 25th May 2010.
The design environment of Océ PRISMAdesigner is built around a central repository that allows any document stakeholder to share resources in real-time, regardless of location. Data is separated from design and design from output. This provides the flexibility to use any type and number of data files in the design process and to render documents in any output format, including electronic formats and delivery. Due to the browser based architecture all Océ PRISMAdesigner functionalities can be accessed via integrated web portals.
Customers get quick time-to-market delivery
“When we first looked at the Open Print technology, we were very impressed with the way in which they can enrich and enhance legacy applications so effectively,” said Sebastian Landesberger, Executive Vice President Océ Production Printing. “Additionally the collaborative workflow capabilities and the easy-to-use object oriented composition environment will allow our customers to quickly develop and maintain their applications. This is important, as it allows our customers to achieve a quick time-to-market delivery.”
“Being able to work so very closely with Océ on the technology innovation roadmap is very exciting,” said Philippe Verdier, Chairman & CEO of Docapost. “Our synergies enable us to deliver solutions which empower our customers system environments and workflows and, in turn, allow them to grow their business smoothly and efficiently. The worldwide partnership with Océ is parallel with Docaposts strategy to further strengthen their position as a global player in the document management arena as providers of leading-edge technology and services.”
“We have designed an integrated architecture allowing our customers to design, produce, re-engineer, deliver, manage and track their output. For customers of today, simplicity, flexibility and ROI are key to establish and maintain strong business momentum and grow in line with the pace of the markets,” adds Jean-Philippe Sarraut, Chairman and CEO, Sefas Innovation. “The combination of Sefas document management technology and Océs unparalleled output management capabilities offer our customers powerful solutions to play in the top league of document creation and management.”
