“We needed a business-wide solution that would work for everyone in the new company, one that all our employees could adopt and use effortlessly to perform their digital print or sign making tasks.
Clarity was by far the best option and gave us the chance to centralise our processes from marketing through to Sage 50 accounts integration”
Tim Andrews – Chairman
Company Background
Based in the heart of England in Tyseley, Birmingham, Hollywood Monster is one of the UK’s most trusted and high profile providers of ‘epic’ sign and graphic solutions, boasting customers such as Westfield, HMV, Carillion, WBA FC and the NHS.
Company issues
In 2009, Hollywood Signs and Monster Digital merged to create Hollywood Monster Ltd. Hollywood Signs had been using inefficient manual systems based largely on spreadsheets and Word documents, whilst Monster Digital was using a system built by a digital print company which was unable to cater for the sign making functionality of the merged business.
Proposed solution
Ideally suited for both sign and digital print companies, Clarity provides Hollywood Monster with a tailored system which allows its 39 users to share information and data easily.
Accurate and reliable estimations are now generated using Roll Feed and Sheet Calc-Wizards and the accounts department are enjoying the benefits of invoice and contact integration with Sage 50.
The combined ROI is huge; particularly in time and cost savings, but also in clear visibility for confident decision making.
Ongoing support
As Hollywood Monster provides large scale and bespoke projects from design conception to installation, efficiency in production is essential. Clarity’s new browser-based Shop Floor Data Collection module could help optimise shop floor processes in the future.
