What is Managed Print Services?
Today’s emphasis on improving the bottom line drives organizations to find practical ways to reduce costs. Profit-conscious executives face the choice of either reducing headcount or reducing overhead expenses. Much of the time, either of these choices can have a negative impact on productivity and morale. Every so often a strategy appears that can provide significant expense control and enhance productivity. One such strategy area involves the outsourced management of your print fleet – or Managed Print Services.
Documents drive business processes. That is why an average of 1-3% of a company’s annual revenue is consumed by document production. To make matters worse, this expense continues to grow in many organizations.
Managed Print Services will allow you to control these expenses by outsourcing the management of your fleet of printers, copiers and scanners. In this type of usage-based model, you only pay for the prints you use. Best of all, no capital expenditures are required since the agreement is for the management of your existing fleet or may include a new refreshed fleet that you use but don’t own.
