Transitional Warehousing


Even though you are producing your materials on sustainable paper and using environmentally friendly inks to create the “greenest” literature you possibly can, what good is it if you end up having to throw it away due to obsolescence or lack of demand?

With the world becoming a more mobile, electronic driven place, predicting inventory needs can be a challenge even the most seasoned print buyers can cringe at. But what if you never had to worry about inventory again? What if you could one day have no inventory at all and still be able to fulfill orders on-time, in varied mediums, and on a global scale? Through the use of Print on Demand (POD) and Transitional Warehousing this fantasy can become a reality.

Transitional warehousing allows you to eliminate current inventory on the way to implementing a POD solution. Midland’s process involves analyzing order history and current inventory levels to determine a conversion strategy ensuring 100% availability of all titles at all times. This process allows you to deliver the most current information to your dealers and customers while opening new revenue streams.

As people become more mobile we need to expand content offerings to address the user's mobility. By becoming less tied to traditional print to inventory models, companies can gain the ability to easily repurpose information to numerous output devices and mediums, such as CD/DVD, PDF’s downloaded to a tablet device, or other forms of mobile devices. Providing a blended solution of print and electronic output opens the door for additional sources of revenue, and offers customers information they want in the medium they prefer.
