In today’s rapidly evolving business environment, the need for organized and current corporate training materials is more critical than ever.
Simply put, these materials are essential for empowering employees with the knowledge and resources they need to succeed in their individual roles. There’s just one problem: managing the production and distribution of these materials can be a hard, frustrating, and time-consuming process.
Here are six strategies for learning & development professionals to streamline the production of corporate training materials.
1. On-Demand Printing: Save Money, Reduce Waste
Traditional printing methods often compel businesses to produce large quantities of training manuals, leading to storage issues, unnecessary waste, and the potential for stockpiling outdated materials.
On-demand printing addresses these hurdles by allowing businesses to print materials only as needed, significantly reducing waste and lowering storage costs. According to a study by the Environmental Protection Agency, on-demand printing can decrease paper waste by up to 40%, making it not just a cost-effective solution but also an environmentally responsible choice!
2. Integrated Fulfillment Services: Seamless From Print to Delivery
A significant hurdle in managing corporate training materials is coordinating their distribution. JPS Books + Logistics offers integrated fulfillment services that streamline the entire process—from printing to shipping!
You might be wondering: what’s the benefit? By consolidating these services with a single provider, you can guarantee efficient production and distribution, reducing lead times and simplifying logistics.
Research from Gartner indicates companies utilizing integrated fulfillment services see a reduction in order-to-delivery times by up to 25%, leading to higher operational efficiency.
3. Tailored Solutions for Every Training Program
Every organization has unique training needs, and a one-size-fits-all approach usually falls (woefully) short.
JPS Books + Logistics provides customization options that allow you to adapt your training materials to meet your specific requirements. Whether it’s selecting the right paper quality or incorporating brand elements, customized materials not only enhance learning but also reinforce your organization’s identity.
4. Reliable, On-Time Delivery
Meeting training deadlines is crucial for organizational success. With JPS’s Geographic Edge, you can rely on fast, on-time delivery.

5. Dedicated Account Teams: Get Personalized Support
Having a dedicated account team can transform your experience with any business. For this reason, JPS Books + Logistics assigns a dedicated point of contact to make sure your printing and fulfillment needs are met efficiently.

This promises you always have the right materials on hand, allowing for smooth training operations.
