RR Donnelley Plant Automation
Automation Built to Scale Across RR Donnelley’s Plants
Ready to Modernize Your Plant Without Disrupting Production?
If you’re responsible for keeping production moving at your RR Donnelley plant, we know that you’re under constant pressure to do more with less. Manual workflows, temp labor dependency, and aging equipment make it harder to hit throughput goals and protect margins.
Quadient helps you automate critical production steps so that you can move more work through your plant, reduce operating costs, and improve consistency without sacrificing reliability.
Reduce Temp Labor
Eliminate manual folding and finishing to lower temp labor needs
Increase Throughput
Move more jobs through production without adding headcount
Improve Margins
Lower operating costs and increase profitability per job
Ensure Compliance
Track production accurately and generate verifiable proof
Reduce Operating Costs by Cutting Temp Labor Dependency
Many plants rely on large teams for folding, inserting, and hand-processing. While this keeps work moving, it also drives up labor costs, creates scheduling challenges, and introduces variability on the floor.
Automation replaces repetitive manual tasks with consistent, reliable workflows that allow you to free up your staff to focus on more strategic tasks.
- Fewer hands required per job
- Reduced dependence on temp labor
- More predictable labor costs and output
- Improved consistency across shifts
Increase Capacity While Boosting Overall Profitability
Manual workflows and underperforming equipment limit how much work your plant can take on—especially during peak periods or tight turnaround windows.
By increasing processing speed and optimizing production workflows, automation allows you to move more jobs through your existing operation while improving utilization and profitability.
- Higher throughput per shift
- Faster job turnaround times
- Improved equipment utilization
- Increased margins without added labor
Strengthen Compliance and Reporting Without Slowing Production
Manual processes make it difficult to track jobs, verify completion, and consistently produce proof of production.
Automation introduces built-in tracking, verification, and reporting that give you greater visibility into what’s happening on the floor and confidence in your ability to meet compliance requirements.
- Improved accuracy and traceability
- Verifiable proof of production
- Reduced risk of errors and rework
- Greater confidence in audits and reporting
Streamline Communications Workflows
If your plant handles high-volume, regulated customer communications, automation can help you reduce manual touchpoints in mailing, printing, and fulfillment. Improve accuracy across shifts, generate verifiable proof of production, and meet compliance requirements without slowing your operation.
Boost Print Production Efficiency
For plants managing high-volume commercial print, automation can help you move more jobs faster while reducing labor strain. Replace manual folding and finishing with automated workflows, increase throughput during peak demand, eliminate bottlenecks, and modernize production to handle higher-margin work.
Automation Already Supporting RR Donnelley Plants
Some RR Donnelley plants are already using Quadient’s DS-77 iQ and DS-1200 G5iQ folder inserters to streamline production and reduce manual work.
These systems automate folding, inserting, and high-volume print and mail processing, increasing throughput, minimizing errors, and freeing operators for higher-value tasks.
With intuitive operation, fast changeovers, and built-in tracking, they help you move more jobs through your plant faster, improve accuracy, and support compliance—all while reducing labor dependency and downtime.
We've been partnering with Quadient for years, and their equipment has helped many of our plants operate more efficiently. The automation solutions reduce manual work, increase throughput, and give our teams the visibility they need to maintain quality and compliance across all shifts.
