The Challenge

Outsourcing Print Production Without a System Means Chasing Vendors by Email for Every Order.

Without Vendor Management

Fragmented, Manual Vendor Operations

  • Orders sent to vendors by email with no structured record. Status tracked by chasing vendors manually.
  • No visibility into vendor production: you find out about a problem when the delivery arrives late or wrong.
  • Quality issues logged in email complaints with no data trail. Vendor selection based on whoever picks up the phone.
  • Vendor invoices reconciled manually by comparing emails to spreadsheets: slow, error-prone, and always behind.
  • No SLA tracking: you can't hold vendors accountable because you're not measuring performance.
With Vendor Management

Automated, Accountable Vendor Operations

  • Orders route to vendors automatically based on product type, location, capacity, and cost rules. No manual assignment.
  • Real-time order status from vendors visible in PrintERP: you see where every outsourced job is without asking.
  • Quality inspections logged digitally on delivery. Defect rates, rejection rates, and complaints tracked per vendor.
  • Vendor invoices matched against POs automatically. Discrepancies flagged before payment, not after.
  • SLA performance tracked per vendor. Renegotiate terms or switch vendors with real data supporting the decision.

How It Works

Vendor Management Solution Workflow

1

Vendor Onboarded

Create a vendor profile with capabilities, print methods, geographic coverage, capacity, lead times, and pricing. Define routing rules that match order types to the right vendor automatically.
2

Orders Routed

When an order qualifies for outsourcing, the routing engine selects the best-fit vendor based on your rules and sends the order automatically. Your team sees the assignment in PrintERP without managing the process manually.
3

Production Monitored

Track order status from your vendors in real time. Status updates pull into PrintERP so your team sees progress without chasing. If a vendor falls behind, an alert fires before the delivery date is missed.
4

Invoices Reconciled

Vendor invoices are matched against the original PO automatically. Quantity, pricing, and delivery charges verified in seconds. Discrepancies flagged for review before payment is approved.

What Customers Say

Print Operations Running on Automated Vendor Management

★★★★★

“"We route work to eight print vendors. Before Vendor Management, coordinating that was a full-time job for two people. Now orders go out automatically, status comes back in real time, and invoices match the POs. Those two people now handle new business development instead."”

Operations Director

★★★★★

“"We had no idea which vendors were actually performing well until we started tracking it. One vendor we'd used for years turned out to have a 71% on-time rate. We reduced their allocation and moved work to better performers. Overall delivery performance improved by 22 percentage points."”
