Artwork Flow Impact
Meet Sarvotham Care
Established in 1996, Sarvotham Care is a global leader in manufacturing a wide range of personal care products such as hand sanitizers, cleaning agents and creams for a host of brands.
Sarvotham Care’s extensive production ability drives brands to succeed and grow in the market, producing products that put customers first.
The Challenge
Sarvotham Care works as a third-party manufacturer, producing similar products for different brands.
As an external collaborator, they often work on multiple artwork projects at the same time. With multiple stakeholders and contributors involved, it was almost impossible to achieve the visibility they needed.
It usually took them one to two weeks for every iteration, further delaying the approval process. Ultimately, multiple rounds of revisions made it difficult to meet deadlines and release artworks faster.
With their teams working remotely due to the pandemic, Sarvotham Care knew it was time to find a way to simplify their artwork management planning and execution.
First, let’s take a look at one of their project workflows:

100% Visibility On Projects
Workflows made it possible to outline how a project would progress. Project managers could set down deadlines for every task and assign checklists to ensure the collaborators knew exactly what they were reviewing and when.
Rather than sift through email threads and chats, Artwork Flow’s project dashboard made it easier to see the progress of each and every project.
What once seemed like an uphill battle, project managers could now track down the latest version file in the library in seconds.
Fostering Accountability
Sarvotham Care team typically works on over 50 projects in a span of six months with varying objectives. Some projects focus on new product development while some are about revising existing labels. Their teams often overlap and work parallelly on multiple projects as well.
The audit trail feature enabled project managers to understand if the collaborators had completed assigned tasks and offered accurate feedback.
Improved Feedback Cycle
Earlier, every feedback loop would take approximately two weeks to be completed. The annotation and commenting features helped teams to track and understand what exactly needed to be revised.
Online proofing tools, especially PDF compare tool helped to reduce errors and made it possible to cut down their feedback cycle.
To sum up, Artwork Flow helped Sarvotham Care with:
- Improve alignment between teams
- Accurate error-proofing for multiple projects
- Increase in efficiency and visibility
