Development and implementation of an on-line packaging artwork development and approval system that reduced artwork typesetting errors and time (reduction from an average of 5 reworks before approval to 1.5 in an average of 3 days), providing faster turnaround and hence speed to market. In the first 2 years this enabled over 2200 artworks to be developed in a ‘record breaking’ manner at an estimated cost saving of over £3 million. See also 3. process optimisation.
