A system includes a plurality of print service providers (15-18) and a print job oversight and analysis center. The print job oversight and analysis center is adapted to, in response to receiving a job requiring printing and delivering documents, determining geographic locations of recipients (21-31) of the documents and selecting a subset of the print service providers (15-18) to print the documents and send the documents to the recipients (21-31). Each of the print service providers (15-18) in the subset of print service providers (15-18) prints documents for a subset of the recipients (21-31). The documents are apportioned among the subset of print service providers (15-18) based on the geographic locations of the recipients (21-31) of the documents so as to coordinate delivery time from the subset of print service providers (15-18) to the recipients (21-31).
L'invention concerne un système comprenant plusieurs prestataires de service d'impression (15-18) et un centre de contrôle et d'analyse des tâches d'impression. A la réception d'une tâche nécessitant l'impression et la distribution de documents, la détermination de l'emplacement géographique des destinataires (21-31) de ces documents et la sélection d'un sous-ensemble de prestataires de service d'impression (15-18), le dit centre imprime les documents et les adresse aux destinataires (21-31). Chaque prestataire de service d'impression (15-18) du sous-ensemble de prestataires de service d'impression (15-18) imprime les documents pour un sous-ensemble de destinataires (21-31). Les documents sont répartis entre les prestataires du sous-ensemble de prestataires de service d'impression (15-18) en fonction de l'emplacement géographique des destinataires (21-31) des documents, ce qui permet de synchroniser la distribution entre le sous-ensemble de prestataires de service d'impression(15-18) et les destinataires (21-31).
