Founded in 1976 in Alexandria, Virginia, CSI (Composition Systems Inc.) started as a traditional typesetting firm but has grown into a leading full-service printing and graphics provider. Their offerings include everything from offset printing to superwide grand format printing, as well as professional installation services. Today, CSI serves retail, food service, events, sports, museums, and nonprofits across North America. To meet evolving client demands, CSI opted to automate its production and installation workflows. They rely on Durst's Lift ERP system to streamline printing operations, quoting, and invoicing processes. From online order acceptance to preflight, manufacturing, and delivery, Lift ERP optimizes critical production workflows. 

However, to achieve a seamless workflow, CSI needed to reduce paperwork and eliminate the time spent manually copying installation jobs from Lift to their installation team. They found the missing piece by partnering with Vantage, a cloud-based project management software designed specifically for print and signage installations. The Vantage and Lift ERP teams integrated the two systems, enabling the automatic import of installation jobs and near-real-time syncing. Together, Lift ERP and Vantage offer CSI a complete end-to-end solution, connecting sales and print production with installation management. The integration eliminates repetitive tasks, saving the team over 10 hours each week on installation scheduling.here The whole story is here.
