Our partnerships are built on transparency, close working relationships across all functions, detailed reporting, timely analysis of journal performance, and professional expertise both in respect to the general publishing landscape and specific disciplines. Each of our partnerships is individual; designed to best meet the needs of the society, its journal(s) and its editorial team(s).
Development plans

As one of the world's largest university presses, we are able to provide the international reach and global publishing programme of a commercial publisher, together with the care and tailored approach of an academically driven not-for-profit.
We are committed to providing a fast, highly responsive and reliable production service for our publishing partners. Our approach is characterised by flexibility. Each of our journals operates a workflow designed to suit the individual journal and the nature of the material it publishes. At the same time, our scale and honed internal processes achieve value for money, cost effectiveness and timely publication.
Our Content Services group supports our production team. They are not only responsible for electronic delivery of content in XML formats to Cambridge Core but also ensure that article metadata is complete and fed to library catalogues, indexing services, content aggregators, databases and other partners.
Flexibility
Cambridge works with a significant number of editorial offices, which follow a wide range of editorial procedures and processes. Quality control
All copyeditors, typesetters and print manufacturers used by Cambridge have been carefully vetted. Their performance is continuously monitored by our production editors and we make regular visits to our typesetting and printing suppliers for detailed reviews of progress.
Time management
Our schedules are shaped by the time required for authors and editors to work on their proofs.
Distribution
We offer a reliable and efficient distribution service through an international mail expeditor.
Our global marketing team formulates strategic marketing plans in order to communicate with our core audiences:
