International Systems and Communications Limited (ISC) was set up in 1991 to offer a high-quality, customised publishing service for event-linked, commemorative and annual publications.
In 1997, ISC was greatly honoured to receive the Queen’s Award for Export Achievement – one of only 13 for export granted that year in Greater London.
Our prestigious client base including global and regional international organisations is testimony to a business philosophy based on quality and a flexible approach.
By outsourcing production the client organisation makes an immediate saving on overheads. ISC’s advice on content and circulation then helps the client derive maximum benefit from using the publication as part of its public relations strategy. The publication not only increases international awareness for the client organisation, but also serves as a high-quality profile of its aims and objectives.
Most significantly, ISC will develop on the client’s behalf a potential for revenue generation as the influential global audience for such publications makes them an attractive advertising medium. The advantage of using advertising to fund the publication means that it can be produced at no cost to the client organisation.
There is also no risk for the client as ISC guarantees that its experienced sales managers will generate sufficient commercial revenues to fund all production and distribution costs. In addition, the client may benefit from royalty payments depending on the coverage and total circulation of the publication.
ISC has worked with members of the United Nations family such as the International Civil Aviation Organization, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, the International Telecommunication Union and the Universal Postal Union. Other organisations that have contracted ISC to produce publications include the Africa-European Union Economic Forum, the Association of Caribbean States, the Atlantic Council of the UK, the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf, the International Chamber of Commerce, the International Federation of Air Line Pilots’ Associations and the World Trade Centers Association.
“The ISC team has produced a comprehensive, authoritative and accessible publication on a highly complex technical subject, namely the air navigation system of the future referred to in the aviation industry as CNS/ATM or, communications, navigation, surveillance and air traffic management systems.
“The 300-page hardcover illustrated book was originally prepared to coincide with ICAO’s first ever Worldwide CNS/ATM Systems Implementation Conference held in Rio de Janeiro, from 11 to 15 May 1998. The depth and scope of its contents, however, will ensure that it remains a source of reference on the subject for years to come.
“ISC’s ability to produce the book in five languages, based on contributions from a variety of industry sources, testifies to the high degree of professionalism and flexibility demonstrated by the publisher.”
“ISC and the International Chamber of Commerce have now worked together on two outstanding books that were widely appreciated by business executives all over the world. The first was about the practicalities of doing business in Asia and the second enlarged on the theme of a major ICC conference: ‘The World Business Agenda for Electronic Commerce’. ICC editors much appreciated the professionalism of ISC at every stage of the production process. Page layouts and picture reproduction were to the highest standards. Deadlines were rigorously observed.”
