A one-stop communication hub
}
IANS Publishing, an arm of Indo-Asian News Service, India’s largest independent news agency, was the first Indian company to get into Custom/Contract Publishing. It executed international outsourced contracts in the mid-1990s when few people had heard of the term outsourcing. The outsourced work included editing, designing and production of U.S. newspapers and Indian newspapers, magazines, journals, company brochures and newsletters. Today, IANS Publishing has one of India’s largest team of editors, writers and designers who use state-of-the-art facilities to create communication and information products of enduring value. The domain expertise acquired by them over a decade-and-a-half gives IANS Publishing the experience, competence and the confidence to handle the entire range of editing and publishing activities across all platforms — at costs that are competitive.
WHY OUTSOURCE
| Five Compelling Reasons
Cost Advantage
Quality Advantage
Time Saving
Technology Edge
Scalability
You will find that your costs dip by 25 to 30 percent for most content and designbased processes that you outsource to us. The valuable resources so released can then be deployed for more critical business development activities.
At IANS Publishing, we have a highly qualified, skilled and experienced content, design and technology team whose skills can compare with the best in the trade. They work under tough deadlines, and deliver high quality work.
The time difference between India and the western world allows us to unlock valuable time for you. You can hand over all your prepress and graphics work in the evening, and our teams will deliver them in printready formats the next morning.
You don’t have to block your capital by investing constantly in high-end technology. You can use our stateof-the-art technology for all your pre-press, graphics and web publishing needs.
You can increase the scale of your operations without worrying about the backend pipe. We will invest in manpower and technology to continue providing services that will give you scale and edge over competition.
