NEW YORK, NY — August 6, 2026 — Recently, GSJJ introduced a documented design-intake program that establishes response, artwork-proof, and production-scheduling targets for eligible custom merchandise requests.
The program defines the workflow from the receipt of a complete request through the entry of approved artwork into production scheduling. Manufacturing and shipping remain separate stages and are evaluated independently based on product specifications, materials, order volume, production requirements, and logistics conditions.
Design-Stage Targets
GSJJ has established the following operational targets and service standards for eligible custom merchandise requests:
- Global 24-hour live customer support with timely responses to customer inquiries
- Initial 2D or 3D artwork proof within three business hours
- Approved design entered into production scheduling within 12 business hours
The 12-hour measurement period pauses while GSJJ awaits customer feedback, design approval, or required project information. Customer support response covers the initial communication stage after a project inquiry is submitted. Further steps, including artwork approval, production scheduling, and delivery arrangements, will be confirmed separately based on project requirements.
Customers can help streamline the review process by sharing key information such as product type, order quantity, size specifications, design files or concepts, target dates, and contact details. Technical evaluation determines whether a project qualifies for the stated design-intake targets.
Projects involving complex artwork, multiple revisions, specialty materials, large quantities, or unsupported production requirements may require additional review time and may fall outside the stated targets.
“The program defines where design intake ends, and production planning begins,” said Karen, GSJJ Marketing Director. “By separating customer communication, artwork preparation, and production scheduling stages, we aim to provide clearer expectations without presenting design-stage targets as manufacturing or delivery commitments.”
Measurement Method
GSJJ tracks design-intake activities through its customer-support and artwork-management workflows. The measurement framework focuses on defined stages within the early project process, including customer communication, artwork proof preparation, and production scheduling entry after final design approval.
The tracking process considers factors such as:
- Customer inquiry handling and response workflows
- Time required for initial artwork proof preparation
- Scheduling entry after approved artwork is confirmed
- Delays caused by missing information, customer feedback, or revision requests
The design-intake standards serve as operational guidelines for eligible requests and do not represent contractual service guarantees, manufacturing completion dates, or delivery commitments.
Scope of the Program
The standards cover several custom merchandise categories supported by GSJJ, including Custom Medals, Custom Enamel Pins, patches, and keychains.
Each order follows its own production and delivery timeline. Factors such as product design, material selection, order volume, manufacturing arrangements, and shipping destination may influence the overall schedule. The design-intake targets apply only to the early stages of customer communication, artwork preparation, and production scheduling.
Program information and current company details are available at GSJJ.
