Cenveo ColorScience is one example of how Cenveo brings value to their customers beyond printing. Through investments in service-based offerings including technology, mailing, fulfillment, design and eCommerce, Cenveo addresses the rapidly growing need for enterprise visual communications solutions.

Meanwhile, at any one of Cenveo's commercial printing plants, the prepress department can generate an identical proof from the same data. The actual plant printing the piece and the customer can be in the same geographical region or across the country. In addition, using Cenveo ColorScience, the printed piece can be printed simultaneously at multiple Cenveo locations to take advantage of capacity or mailing logistics as the technology and process are turnkey, transparent for the end user while delivering predictable and repeatable results. "Cenveo ColorScience has been highly successful with a number of the company's customers including Starwood Hotels & Resorts, (parent company of St. Regis, The Luxury Collection, Sheraton, Westin, W and Four Points by Sheraton Four Points by Sheraton is Starwood Hotels & Resorts mid-market hotel brand, targeted towards business travelers and small conventions.

Cenveo ColorScience is also used to monitor all of Cenveo's digital presses and has had near unanimous adoption by all sheetfed and web plants in the first year. Cenveo will soon start work on developing a software interface between the Cenveo ColorScience process control system and the various color measurement devices in the pressroom that report press sheet data. This project will provide high-speed data capture in the pressroom, better enable Cenveo to use existing measurement assets and help close the color loop between press sheet and the original file where the customer specifies the digital color value for the job.
