Case Study: McGowans achieves 15% turnover growth with Tharstern MIS

McGowans Records Double Digit Growth After Tharstern MIS Investment

McGowans Printing Solutions, a wide and large format specialist serving retail clients such as Tesco and Primark, needed a more transparent way to manage production across its Dublin and Belfast sites. Before investing in Tharstern, the company relied on a basic MIS system, paper dockets, spreadsheets, and manual communication to track jobs, plan work, and estimate machine capacity.

With the Tharstern MIS, McGowans automated planning and scheduling, improved visibility into jobs, materials, downtime, and costs, and gave staff and operators clearer access to live production information. The results included a 15% year-on-year increase in turnover, 15 hours a week saved in meetings, better productivity and morale, and improved pricing accuracy and customer communication.
