MRA is currently designing the renovation of several newspaper printing facilities for Dow Jones, the parent company of The Wall Street Journal. The Journal prints over 2 million copies daily in facilities located throughout the United States, strategically selected to allow for easy regional distribution. The technical requirements for this project are very demanding. The facilities must remain 100% operational for the duration of work, which involves changes to the press lines and the roofs above them. In some instances it also involves the addition of a new press line and a reorganization of the mail room, which is where the newspapers are bundled and loaded onto trucks for distribution. A thorough understanding of the operation of each printing facility including materials storage, staging, plate production and installation, line operation, and distribution phasing as well as maintenance procedures is essential to the success of this project.
