The PRIMA family of computer systems is a highly functional, modular, yet integrated suite of solutions designed specifically for the newspaper printing industry. Products can be supplied as part of a total solution or purchased individually for integration with third party systems.

Installed at many of the world’s foremost newspapers, including Dow Jones and Company, Inc., The New York Times, the Daily Mail, West Ferry Printers, Chicago Sun Times and the Northcliffe Newspaper Group, PRIMA computer systems have earned a reputation for high levels of functionality and reliability.

We installed our first newspaper printing management information system in 1985. Since 1989 we have been developing systems on a standard PC platform, and over the years our R & D team have developed programming skills and applications knowledge second-to-none. Its PRIMA MS press management system is recognised as being the world leader. Today more than 200 newspaper presses world-wide, producing over 40million newspapers each day, rely on Harland Simon’s ISO 9001 certified technology.
