The Challenge

Excel-Based Print Bundling Was Slow, Error-Prone, and Dependent on Experienced Staff

GZ Media, the world's largest vinyl record and printed materials producer, faced rising operational costs from increased energy and material prices. Manual print material bundling through Excel was inefficient, time-consuming, and prone to errors. New employees struggled to reach the efficiency levels of experienced staff, creating a knowledge-dependency bottleneck.

Our Approach

AI Bundles Print Materials Automatically Each Night, Factoring in Materials, Color, and Deadlines

Blindspot implemented an AI-powered application built on the Adastra OptiSuite optimization platform. The system automatically bundles print materials considering materials, colours, finishes, and delivery deadlines. Automated nightly optimization replaced manual Excel-based planning, with employees able to trigger rescheduling throughout the day as orders arrived.

Results

Full ROI in Six Months, Zero Bundling Errors, and Planning Reduced to Minutes

ROI was achieved within six months. Planning time dropped from hours to minutes, bundling errors were eliminated entirely, and employee capacity was freed for additional tasks. New employees can now plan with the same efficiency as experienced staff.

"What I particularly appreciate about working with Adastra is their understanding of GZ Media's needs and the harmony of the entire implementation team."
