Specialist Print made simple

Using rules-based automation within the Optimus dash calculation engine, specialist print products can be estimated and managed accurately across highly customised production environments.

Machines, materials, finishing processes, production values and pricing logic are centrally configured around your workflow requirements — helping ensure specialist quotes and production jobs reflect the way your business operates.

Combined with Optimus Core MIS, this creates a connected workflow from enquiry and estimating through to production management, scheduling and delivery.

The platform supports a broad range of specialist print applications including screen printing, fine art printing, luxury invitations, packaging, labels, garment decoration and bespoke finishing workflows.

Whether producing highly customised short runs or complex multi-stage specialist products, Optimus helps improve operational visibility, reduce manual intervention and maintain greater production control across specialist manufacturing environments.
