Purpose

The KODAK IMAGECARE Program is designed to assist motion picture laboratories in understanding the practices required to provide reliable and consistent processing. Based on the principle of self-assessment, the Program's ultimate goal is to give filmmakers the confidence to process their film in any laboratory that has achieved the Program standards.

The IMAGECARE Program sign-up agreement enables laboratories to receive the consulting and support necessary to facilitate the achievement of IMAGECARE Program standards.

Kodak Deliverables

Kodak will conduct a comprehensive laboratory site audit to identify the work required by the laboratory to gain IMAGECARE Program membership.

Once a laboratory believes their operations meet IMAGECARE Program standards, Kodak will conduct a thorough site audit to assess compliance and award accreditation. If successful the laboratory receives 12 months of IMAGECARE Program Annual Services at no charge.
