The METRICS JDF Connector allows all the information specifying a graphics product to be transmitted electronically, the Metrics system for the prepress control system.

Thus it is possible to create a fully automated which ensures that the information in the Metrics Production Order are the same used by PrePress.

The benefits for the printing are very important:

- Faster production. Jobs are created automatically on prepress with information already in the Production Order. - Reduce errors. There is no human transcript. - Reliability: The electronic communication between Metrics and Workflow Prepress increases the reliability of data available for monitoring works. - Reduced operating costs

Metrics JDF Connector is available for integrated operation with most prepress control systems available in the market.

Metrics IQuote, is a state-of the-art estimating tool which can handle digital, offset and mixed production environments.

Metrics IQuote makes simulations and automatically creates the best production plan considering all technical characteristics of products, machines, materials and related costs. Metrics IQuote creating precise estimates quickly and easily totaly integrated with other Company's areas: Production and Administration.

Metrics Planner is the most complete tool for organizing production; to carry out the planning and programming equipment, set develops deadlines and business strategies.

The differentiated technology allows full visibility of the different level of occupancy of all plant equipment, and may provide idle periods, of high demand and also the production gaps. Thus the Planning area now has a strategic function that helps to increase the efficiency attending more orders with the same resources, generating more profit for the company.

The management system tailored to printing world.

Metrics mission is to help your company be more competitive and profitable with more automation, integration and information to make better decisions.

Metrics Printware is a management system that meets the three main functions of a company, Sell, Produce and Manage. For each of these areas there are specialized modules, that are designed to automate and integrate the tasks performed in the departments and people involved.

Total Production Control, in real timeMetrics Job Track is a complete system for monitoring production in all printing processes, reducing waste of raw materials and optimizing resource utilization.

Applying the Collaborative Planning concept, Metrics Job Track integrates the factory floor with the other company departments and allows monitoring the execution of the all works, with accurate information and available in real time.

Reliable information replacing bulletins manuals, offers several alternatives to collect the production appointments, from data entry to full automation with electronic capture directly of the machines or through communication using JDF.

Improvement and Quality Based on 100% reliable information, the system allows the indicators creation for performance analysis, essential for implementation of improvement programs.

There are hundreds of machines monitored by the Job Track 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, reducing costs, facilitating the work and contributing to the our client increased productivity.

Metrics Post Calculation is the essential tool to meet the actual performance of printingand understand how each product, customer or process contributes to the company's profitability.

Keeping complete records of the estimated costs in the estimate and actual costs incurred in production, Metrics Post Calculation allows to analyze all the variations between planned and carried out, identifying where the main problems that must be focus of improvement actions.

Thus, the company is able to identify the most profitable products and customers, and direct efforts to increase profitability.

Know the best opportunities:

Identification of production variations in values between the estimated and actual, for the profitability analysis per order, product, project and client.

Know the real costs of production: Allows seeing the actual performance of the printing, identifying the main issues for software fixes and continuous improvement programs.

Improve the pricing process: Knowing the actual production data (raw material, runtime activities and resources available), the creation of estimates becomes more assertive reducing losses from a bad estimate.
