Following the seminar, Sargent-Disc will be hosting online demonstrations of Digital Purchase Order and CrewStart™, the two newest additions to the Digital Production Office® designed to reduce the carbon footprint of your production through paperless processes.
CrewStart™:
The freelance nature of the entertainment industries can make organising and disseminating onboarding paperwork a time consuming task for large or small productions.
Sargent-Disc's new application, CrewStartTM, enables the Production Office to manage the process entirely online, streamlining the whole procedure from the initial invite, to signatures, to ensuring the signed paperwork is approved by the relevant decision makers.

Digital Purchase Order:
Digital Purchase Order (DPO) simplifies the workflow, removing the need for multiple emails and manual circulation. DPO's intuitive and easy to use interface allows decision makers and controllers to approve costs before decisions are made.
