Birch’s print management process

To ensure the most comprehensive and effective managed print solutions, there’s several stages to our process.

We start by scheduling a meeting to understand your managed print brief and establish the level of support you require with artwork creation and design.

From here, we’ll work with you to choose the most suitable materials and methods in accordance with your brief.

Finally, once we’ve been supplied with the necessary artwork and the files have been fully proofed, we’ll keep you in the loop up until final destination delivery.

Is there still a need for print management?

It’s no secret that the digital landscape has grown and evolved immeasurably over the years, but the enduring creativity and innovation of printed materials means they can still be a powerful tool for reaching your target audience.

As a full-service print management agency, we believe that finding good print management in the UK that meets your specific needs shouldn’t be difficult.

That’s why we offer you as much or as little support as you need.
