The Register Guard – Eugene, OR selects Harland Simon PRIMA Management Systems to interface with Mitsubishi Press Controls August 2005

Jerry LaCamp, Production Manager of The Register Guard – Eugene, OR was purchasing a CTP system and needed to replace their existing MIS because it used outdated hardware. After seeing the advantages that PRIMA Management Systems would bring he decided to go with Harland Simon to replace their complete system, including the CCS system and have PRIMA MS interface directly into the Mitsubishi Press Controls System. Jerry LaCamp commented “We felt comfortable with the system proposed by Harland Simon, which had several enhancements over our existing system. Those enhancements will certainly make it easier for the press crew”.

Thus providing production management and press operators with the tools to optimize production and reduce waste by providing quick and easy press set up, for greater efficiency and capital equipment utilization; significantly reducing copy waste at press start up and shut down; direct management effort toward reducing waste and improving efficiency by providing real time and reported information; ensuring effective production planning, including maintenance and allowing effective monitoring and control of production and resources on a real time basis. 

John Staiano, Harland Simon Vice President of Sales, commented “this is very exciting for Harland Simon as a whole; this opens up additional possibilities not only in North American, but world wide”. Staiano added “it’s through new ventures like this; we can continue to grow and prove ourselves to be the number one systems integrator in the industry”.

The commissioning is due to commence at the end of August 2005 and we expect full production, using the new system, by the middle of September 2005.
