A packaging project involves many stakeholders who all have their own complex challenges. To bring structure to this chaos, Athena Graphics offers different essential tools which provide clarity and consistency to your projects. Together we connect all stakeholders and we can achieve great things.
For many years now Athena Graphics offers a platform which perfectly meets your needs and wishes. The portal increases working comfort and saves valuable time. In this way communication becomes much easier and more efficient. Thanks to several modules, you get a clear overview of all your current orders as well as the packaging to be approved and printed. The centralised and fully automated workflow ensures less errors and e-mail traffic. It brings structure in the chaos. It is also possible to compare different versions and quickly and clearly see the differences.
Recently a ‘business intelligence‘ module was added in which Key Performance Indicators (KP’s) can be retrieved. KPIs are indispensable for keeping track of the functioning of an organization in a radical and simple way. These key figures provide an insight into the business results. By monitoring this data, one can keep a finger on the pulse and take timely action if necessary.
The ‘Webshop’ is completely automated which makes additional communication unnecessary. Thanks to a link between your MIS and our MIS system, all parameters are automatically filled in in the order entry. In addition to speed, the main advantage is that the information does not have to be filled in again, which also avoids errors.
During the start-up phase, the Webshop is always fully customized in close consultation with the customer. Both the brands and the printers can order 7 products via the webshop. These cover a very wide range of flexo plates in different thicknesses, automated prepress, conversion of spot colors to quadri or multicolor, color fast and remote GMG proofs to automatic creation of all kinds of PDFs and Reports and Step & Repeats. Realistic interactive 3D mock-ups can also be ordered automatically.
The software company DOQMIND develops solutions that help companies manage, centralise, streamline and optimise their packaging artwork and product. Athena Portal already integrates a number of tools from DOQMIND, allowing customers to benefit from this streamlined workflow for their packaging processes.
However, customers also have the option to work directly with DOQMIND and use their own developed viewer. A DOQMIND team of developers, architects and project managers ensures that you can create your projects and approval flows on a daily basis.
In addition, you can assign tasks, compare and comment on files and centralise documents in this customised online repository. The all-in-one software can be used worldwide 24/7 from any browser.
