J.S. Eliezer Associates, Inc.
J.S. Eliezer Associates is the preeminent production consultant in the magazine, direct mail and catalogue industry. Experienced consultants confidentially review and analyze every element in the process of creating and delivering a printed end product, considering every factor in the equation from prepress to digital files, from printing press to the final destination in the hand of the consumer. Trained to identify efficiencies, JSEA consultants will examine the procurement process with the goal of formulating and implementing a strategy to serve its clients well, with consistency and constancy, over time. With their comprehensive knowledge of the production and distribution environment, complemented by long-term relationships and the most up to date information, the consultants define their customer's needs and measure the means by which they are currently approaching the process, proposing only what is necessary for improvement of efficiencies and nothing more. The object is reducing total cost while assuring a quality product delivered in the most efficient way possible with the shortest "time to market".
The proposal development includes:
- Gathering the information necessary to define the customer's needs.
- If a reengineering of the end product will allow a more efficient process, while not compromising the intent, the consultants can identify the alternatives, explaining the advantages of considering a different printing methodology or prepress technology.
- The consultants can compare every manufacturing facility extant and illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of each, considering such elements as trim and equipment suitability to minimize waste, production schedules, proximity to distribution points for delivery to end users and total process cost. This review allows for not only the tactical solution for today, but also for the strategic growth plan of the customer.
- After the client has reviewed JSEA's unbiased evaluation of their options, and decided on the most efficient plan for them, the consultants will confidentially negotiate a contract for the customer. JSEA's unparalled reputation for integrity in the industry is thus in the service of the client.
- JSEA consultants are also experts in final distribution. If the end product is to be mailed to the consumer, a very significant cost, the customer will have the advantage of the best advice available in the often confusing world of the postal service.
J.S. Eliezer is affiliated with A.T. Clayton & Co. Inc., a leader in the paper procurement industry. Together, they offer an unmatched platform for optimizing a client's options, from paper buying, to prepress, from printing to final distribution.
