The Control Cockpit ensures that there is a better link between administration and prepress/production. It is the ultimate control tool, turning the person controlling it into a kind of ‘Order supervisor 2.0’, as it were.
Everything starts with the creation of an order. Once the job is in MultiPress, a ‘dialogue’ with the client begins. The customer manages the order and the files in a ‘secured’ environment. The ‘Order supervisor 2.0’ responds from the Control Cockpit, making a fully centralised assessment of whether the job is ready for production.
From here, the order supervisor performs all the checks until – literally! – all check lights change from red to green. Finally, the job is sent to production, so that prepress, production and possibly the finishing department receive the precise and complete information they need to start up and monitor the job.
