Situation
The publisher had been relying on another printer but faced recurring frustrations:
-
Missed schedules that caused ripple effects in their seasonal planning.
-
Projects overlooked - some titles were never even entered into production. This left the publisher scrambling to re-verify schedules, resubmit files, and push back promised ship dates.
-
Poor communication and lack of responsiveness when issues arose.
"When our customers needed a reprint of books quickly, we reached out to Bradford and Bigelow who jumped providing great pricing and a quick turnaround quote. Then, we got the books even faster than expected and the quality was fantastic!"
President, Language Arts Publisher
