| Managing
Returns in the Newspaper Environment: Accurate & Cost
Effective
4th July 2005
The PRIMA Returns Manager - the latest development
from PrimaSolve Systems Limited in association with Harland
Simon plc., has been designed to facilitate accurate acquisition
of newspaper returns figures without over complicating the
returns procedure.
The PRIMA Returns Manager is the latest addition
to PrimaSolve’s PRIMA range of printing management information
system products, which have become a market leader with over
150 systems installed at over 70 sites world-wide including
The Daily Mail, The Mirror, and The Telegraph.
Designed as a robust unit, with a touch screen
interface for ease of use, wheels for maximum flexibility
and locking features for storage, this system is capable of
processing up to 10,000 returns in an 8-hr day and eliminating
all double data entry.
“The real beauty of this system is in
the simplicity of its operation whilst solving the age old
problem of accurately recording every return in a timely manner
and removing the requirement for long term storage of paper
top sheets. This was only possible because the design team
included a group of newspaper publishers and ABC (UK)"
says Harland Simon's spokesperson.
"At all times the balance was kept between
accuracy, speed and cost. The result has been astonishing
in terms of sales and interest expressed in the first month
since its introduction to the UK market. With our extensive
customer base in North America for our other solutions we
believe this system will become the defacto standard for returns
management in the UK and North America within the next 2 years”.
PrimaSolve is a subsidiary of Harland Simon
plc, who specialize in the supply of industrial automation,
controls and computer systems for the production of newspapers.
