In September of ’08 I installed the first large format press and trained pressman on the operation and maintenance. I also streamlined the pad making operation with the purchase of a new Brackett Circular Padder and Taping System.

I designed and implemented an estimating system and layout program.

I created and implemented new tracking and destruction procedures for many security papers printed at the facility. My system will be used by many pharmaceutical companies as a model for all print vendors that produce the same security paper.

I created an “invisible print error” mark in the security screens that will identify which facility the paper was printed at. This will help state and federal governments to track and identify counterfeiting operations. This mark has not

yet been approved.
