CRE8IVE

A total approach to annual reports

Our total approach to annual reports means we offer an end to end service managing the entire editing, design, production and tabling process. We believe annual reports represent more than a statutory obligation, they are a branding and communication exercise where accuracy and compliance are paramount.

Our streamlined systems and experience, together with our strong business relationships with our sub contractors, translates to cost efficient solutions for our clients.

We have specific experience producing and tabling annual reports for a large range of clients including:

+  Medicare Australia
+  Australian Federal Police
+  Defence Housing Authority
+  Department of Immigration, Indigenous and Multicultural Affairs

Our total service offering includes:

+  Editing, proofreading and indexing
+  Design and typesetting
+  Total print management, distribution and tabling
+  Electronic publishing and online compliance

Editing, proofreading and indexing

We provide creative, substantive and style edits to ensure no typographical or grammatical errors exist. We can also suggest layout or content changes that may improve accessibility comprehension to readers and ensure the tone is suitable for the target audience. In addition, we can provide an audit to ensure all required content is included as set out in the Requirements for Annual Reports.

Following Australian Government requirements for departmental annual reports, we can provide indexes quickly and efficiently which include a table of contents, an alphabetical index, and a glossary of abbreviations and acronyms.

Design and typesetting

Our total design capabilities mean we provide a quality design response based on existing brand values. If required, a photoshoot can be arranged to provide up to date and accurate imagery that reflects the organisation.

We also provide client support services to ensure projects are turned around seamlessly and updates are tracked. These include secure extranet portals for every client which list the documentation of all correspondence and product versions.

Total print management, distribution and tabling

Our broad range of experience with the print management of annual reports and large publications means we negotiate competitive prices and prompt turnaround with leading printers in the ACT. We command the highest quality standards and offer secure embargoed production services including the distribution of reports to various locations as needed.

Electronic publishing and online compliance

Our in-house capabilities include the conversion of annual reports to both HTML and PDF format for publishing on Departmental websites. We ensure all electronic information published meets Commonwealth compliance guidelines.

This includes NOIE, OISO and W3C compliance and overall browser compatibility. If required we can liaise directly with Information Management teams to ensure timely upload to the relevant website, and provide a full PDF version as well as separate financial statements and chapter PDFs.
