What is an MIS?
MIS: Management Information System
A Print MIS solution is an information system designed to serve the needs of a print production operation. This type of system integrates data from all departments and provides management with the information required to effectively run the business on a day-to-day basis, as well as to support strategic, long-term growth decisions.
A solid print MIS system can reduce touchpoints by increasing efficiencies, ultimately reducing costs.
Providing insight into the business, an MIS will allow you to make smart decisions instead of reactionary decisions, stay in better contact with your customers, and more efficiently manage your resources.
