Client:
  Imagelinx
     
Problem:
  Imagelinx is an innovative reprographics service provider needing to service global FMCG clients from what was initially only a UK base. This demands the ability to not only apply their unique skills and experience to solve clients packaging requirements but also to be able to service these requests across numerous time zones on a 24 by 7 basis. The need to allow client teams spread across the globe to comment and approve print designs prior to production as quickly and accurately as possible without the traditional delays and costs of couriering films and people across the globe provided a real opportunity for web technology.
     
   
     
Solution:
  ennovation has provided imagelinx with a web interface to allow their operations around the world to input and edit design job information and costing to a central database server based in the UK. The system also provides for production management for the different operations involved in the imaging process. This system has solved the problems associated with data entry and retrieval for locations remote from the data store, and ensures information is always current and accurate.

ennovation has also developed a web-based image management system to allow imagelinx customers to manage product packaging designs, and make them globally available to all parties responsible for creating around the world. This highly secure system provides on-line viewing, amendment, approval and printing process set-up, and dramatically reduces costs and turnaround times of high volumes of new designs.

Benefits:
  Since first implementing Tracker Imagelinx business has seen dramatic growth and today having been aquired by LTG Technologies Plc they now have offices in Europe, America and Asia with the core of their business proposition being the use of the Web as a fundamental enabler for the repro process and as a mechanism to rationalise the traditional "art" of printing and packaging. Strategic investment by Imagelinx in the use of these technologies and their unique approach looks set to revolutionise their whole business sector.
