If you want the best, if you want all the services, skills and expertise you need at your call, if you want the experience that has produced over 3000 different titles over 40 years, you have found the solution. You can pick and choose the services which suit you and your project. Some clients want us to take care of the entire job; others may only want advice and support.
We commission writers and authors, handle translations in any language, provide editing, designing, production and print services - whatever you need, just ask. Brochures, books, magazines, DVDs, CDs, art exhibition catalogues, promotions, guidebooks, business histories and corporate literature - you name, we can do it. And we can do it competitively, at agreed budgets with the best prices.
A trawl through these web pages will show projects carried out over four decades and, since we've been there, we know how to avoid that, the pitfalls that trap the unwary. You do not want to put your project into inexperienced hands.

BPC was established in 1973, the first company in the UK to set up a complete publishing service.
The founders, Colin Walsh and Tony Littlechild, had both worked extensively in book publishing and magazine publishing.
They were convinced that there was a considerable market to produce books for companies, institutions, organisations and individuals.
But there was so much confusing technology, so many different skills and so little help that the whole process of getting from A to Z seemed complicated - and unfriendly.

We produce books, brochures, magazines, guides, reports and catalogues - in fact any kind of publication.
We provide you with a dedicated team who guide your publication through the production process (from concept to completion if required) and whose expertise helps avoid costly problems arising during production.
Clients only have to outsource to us, we sort out the rest.
Our publishing services team includes writers, editors, translators, picture researchers, designers and print buyers - who are all overseen by an assigned project manager.

Book Production Consultants was registered on a wing and a prayer - and a few spelling mistakes - 35 years ago.
Like any IT company today, it was way ahead of its time and unique in a dreary England, struggling with a 3-day week, and a shortage of toilet rolls.
In those days of hyperinflation, when petrol was 35p a gallon and no one would have dreamed of paying for water in bottles, cash was in short supply.
Banks were hopeless; they wouldn't lend you a penny without grabbing your most precious assets.

If that financial report is ready to print and is desperately urgent, it can be done overnight or within a week.
Broadly, urgency means spending more.
Many of our publications are produced in the Far East because this offers savings up to 35%.
But it also adds 4-5 weeks shipping time onto your schedule and has to be built in at the beginning of the project.
If the project goes late, it is not always possible to simply drop the title into a busy machining schedule.
So much depends on what is required.
