When Shutterfly’s production team set out to improve their imposition process, they faced significant challenges. Their manual workflow required seven employees to manage, consuming time, resources, and generating unnecessary paper waste. Seeking a better solution, they turned to DALIM TWIST — a decision that drastically improved efficiency.
"Before TWIST, we had a manual process that required seven people and generated a lot of paper waste," recalls Johnny Sutton, Senior Systems Administrator at Shutterfly and a long-time DALIM user. "We reduced that labor by 90%. Now, one person handles the entire process."
The transition to TWIST allowed Shutterfly to automate their imposition process, replacing error-prone manual steps with streamlined, consistent automation. The benefits didn’t stop at labor reduction — Shutterfly saw a significant decrease in wasted materials as well.
"The best part," Johnny adds, "is that TWIST just works. It does exactly what we need without constant adjustments."
In addition to transforming their imposition process, Shutterfly leveraged DALIM TWIST’s robust file optimization features to improve print quality and consistency across their vast production environment. By automating complex file preparation tasks, TWIST helped Shutterfly eliminate bottlenecks, improve accuracy, and make sure their output met the highest standards.
Following this success, Shutterfly is now preparing to implement DALIM ES to enhance job tracking, communication, and collaboration. With ES in place, Shutterfly’s production team aims to improve visibility across their workflows while ensuring projects move seamlessly through each stage of production.
