Riviera Maritime offshore magazine layout to Express KCS
London, February 2006

"Express KCS keeps our costs down by matching our production needs with supply," says Hamish Dickie, Riviera Maritime Media’s Publishing Manager. “This enables us to easily deal with peaks and troughs in our production workload, and keep our publications on schedule.

"Early preparation and thorough understanding of workflow by both parties has resulted in a smooth operation. The Express KCS team understands our style and layout requirements, only needing text, images, advertisement files, and a flatplan to do an initial layout. A couple of rounds of revisions later and we're ready to go, with a completely laid out journal.

"In effect we have what feels like our own production team, but with no need for direct management, and with much lower costs. We get capacity when it’s needed and close-at-hand service from their UK

based account management staff," he added. “We also managed to achieve this transition using existing technologies, without needing to buy expensive tailor-made software.”

Express KCS MD Robert Berkeley says: "Getting this right isn't as easy as it might seem, as Riveria Maritime Media's titles have a very distinct look and feel. Ensuring that we meet their production deadlines, and adhere to their in-house styles is only achieved by a highly process

orientated offshore service provider such as Express KCS."

Riviera Maritime Media joins a fast growing line of clients for Express KCS, Media Backoffice. These include many leading prepress companies, design agencies and publishers, such as AGI Media, United Business Media and J Walter Thompson.
