The transition to Ogilvy's site was seamless. Henry says, "When we turned the switch on, everything was up-to-date. The only difference to users was that they needed a new login to start. Even their password stayed the same."

As a result of NAPC's efforts, Ogilvy was able to start their new client relationship without missing a beat. And it's been smooth sailing ever since.

"Any time we've had any issue," Henry says, "NAPC and Xinet have helped us to quickly resolve it."

Now Ogilvy is planning to expand its use of Xinet in the New York office, again with help from NAPC.

Kent says, "I'd been interested in getting it here for a while. In our London and Toronto offices, the system has been showing clear production advantages, in terms of speed, consistency and customization. We view Xinet as a strong, robust digital asset management system and a terrific production environment for final published work. And we like the fact that it's very interoperable with other systems." In the future, Ogilvy is looking to integrate Xinet into various processes, including an automated traffic system to simplify and speed up job tracking.

Wherever the future takes them, NAPC will be right there to lend a hand. "We definitely view them as a partner," Kent says. "Our expectations were fully met by NAPC. They gave us exactly what we wanted."
