Benchmark Your Spoilage

Benchmark Your Spoilage 

Printing Industries of America (PIA) is investigating the extent of spoilage within printing companies. We invite you to join the study and compare your performance. 

Data collected will be used to understand spoilage levels by size and type of company, making it easy to determine if your company’s performance leads or lags competitors. It will also document how companies calculate spoilage. Finally, if you wonder how some companies are able to drive spoilage down to a remarkably low level, this survey should provide answers. 

Participating is easy and will provide you with valuable information. You will:

  • Receive a summary of the findings
  • Learn the size of your company’s improvement opportunity 
  • Invest no more than 15 minutes of your time (have your spoilage figures at hand before you start)
  • Participate in a confidential manner—no individual responses will be shared

Your company doesn’t measure spoilage? You should still participate and gain insight into best practices.  

To participate, go to www.printing.org/spoilagesurvey. Contact Jim Workman at jworkman@printing.org with questions.
