The BURT System™
|
 |
Designed to handle the complexities
associated with administering newspaper and direct mail packaging &
distribution, The BURT System's functional spectrum begins with the processing of
circulation data summarized by carrier route, and currently ends with production
and distribution verification and management reporting.
- PackagingManager
-
Combines all the power of the premier packaging solution,
successfully deployed at over 50
sites with a
5-user license. Allows for either direct entry or download of
circulation draw and insert orders and full-featured production
planning. The system also includes skid-level inventory of
incoming preprint stock, work in progress, and finished
products. Complete support for rack storage systems is included.

-
- PackagingManager-EL
-
The
full-featured entry-level implementation of the premier package
planning tool in use today.

-
- DistributionManager
-
Referencing PackagingManager's packaging information,
DistributionManager completes the process through the preparation of
the trip, drop and carrier level manifests traditionally prepared by
the circulation system. Since DistributionManager can reference
exactly what Packaging has produced, disparities in quantities and
bundle counts are eliminated.
