Curing Obsolescence in the Digital Age

You know that obsolescence in print materials can drive costs up as efficiency drops. You see this especially the case for durable good manufacturers with a need for technical publication printing.

In the digital age where PDFs and emails seem to be the norm, obsolescence can prove difficult to manage.

For most manufacturers, inaccurate direct materials like old user manuals or out-of-date tech documents and instruction sheets represent a complete waste of precious manufacturing dollars. 

The cost of obsolete materials is essentially an investment in technical publications that never reach the intended users. 

The good news is that obsolete printed materials are no longer an inevitable “cost of doing business.”

Print on demand (POD) with just in time (JIT) shipping helps to manage printing obsolescence.

Old way: Print a huge run of manuals because it’s cheaper, storing it in your warehouse and waiting for it to become irrelevant thanks to new versions.

New way: Work with a strategic partner to have your publications versioned as needed, printed when needed and shipped at exactly the right time.

Empower yourself to increase efficiency, cut costs and add to your business’s bottom line through strategic, innovative solutions on your assembly line with the new Quick Guide to Curing Obsolescence.
