PIA/GATF 2006 InterTech(TM) Technology Award Hands Prestigous Award to Esko WebCenter
Esko, the market leader in packaging pre-production solutions, is pleased to announce that WebCenter has received a 2006 Printing Industries of America/Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (PIA/GATF) InterTech Technology Award. WebCenter is part of Esko’s Scope suite of packaging pre-press software. It basically is a communication platform that brings together all packaging supply chain partners-from brand owner to retailer-to discuss jobs, perform approvals, and view 3D models of products with their packaging. WebCenter is the second recent Esko product recipient of an InterTech Award. The FastVariants suite of workflow tools received a 2003 Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (GATF) InterTech(TM) Technology Award.
“WebCenter has enabled us to easily integrate the system into three different business areas-for package, commercial, and large format printing. Key for us was availability of on-line collaboration tools, and the ability to utilize 3D structural viewing, as well as individual separation viewing,” noted Craig LaBossiere, Packaging Manager, OPTIUM, in his testimonial letter that accompanied the award application. “When a CSR releases a file to WebCenter, anyone in the chain-a printer, creative director, or brand owner, for example-will receive an email invitation to log in, review the file, make any annotations and send comments. Critical for us will be the resultant action history, a record of edits and job approvals.”
