The
value proposition that Horizon Business Systems and business models
like them bring to the table is twofold. First is a broad understanding
of the printed products industries and navigation tools to bring
transactions to a clean hassle free conclusion with no surprises
or drama. Second is our depth of knowledge of production alternatives
in the specific product line marketplace and our research tools
to allow us to find a manufacturer and/or decorator for just about
any product.
Every
provider of print products in our industry buys products from other
manufacturers. If you think major direct providers such as Moore
Wallace and Standard Register manufacture all their own products,
think again. These two behemoths are two of the largest "customers"
in HBS' industries, buying from the same manufacturers we work with
who only sell to the trade.
These
"to the trade only" manufacturers are a huge key to the
solution that we provide. Each one of our manufacturing partners
is sought out for their particular niche or skill set in robustly
providing product and service lines. Each one has been tried and
proven and most of our manufacturing partners have been a large
part of our solution for a decade plus. In our industry, manufacturers
seek our business as we are professional and courteous in procurement
of our jobs. We also offer most of our manufacturing partners a
high volume of business, enabling us to essentially use our market
clout to bring our clients jobs to a robust conclusion, time after
time after time at a cost that is easy to justify.
Manufacturers
have the continuing focus on getting production completed on as
many jobs as their equipment can handle and a snag such as a sick
operator or a broken part can set things back and often cause problems.
When this situation happens, Horizon Business Systems will step
up to the plate to determine the clients' precise needs. Our staff
then goes to work to ensure that the required benchmarks are met,
even if this means changing manufacturers. We don't have problems
such as sick operators, because we don't manufacture.
We
choose rather to have a very robust understanding of all of the
product and service lines that fall under the term Printed Business
Communication Product. With a solid background in business forms
and computer forms stemming to the Reagan era, Horizon Business
Systems very market position is in providing clients print products
and services in the most knowledgeable, friendly, intelligent way
possible.
