Problem:
You are responsible for multiple print jobs for various departments in your company. It's your responsibility to work with designers and printers to complete each job to specification in a timely manner. You develop exact printing specifications for size, number of pages, inks, proofs, folds, etc. - now what about the paper stock! The paper constitutes 30-35% of the cost of the job on average and has the greatest single influence in making the piece reflect the original designer's intent. How can you be exact with your paper specifications and make sure you are getting what you are paying for?
Solution:
Simple. You can research the Competitive Grade Finder - Worldwide site. If you know the name of the grade the job was printed on before, use the Search Grade Section (Grade Name) and find what classification it is in and specify that classification in you print bid. After the printer submits the bid, you can also check to make sure the grade they have quoted meets the classification's specifications. You can also use the Search Grade Section (Classification) to research the correct classification for your bid.
