Document process outsourcing specialist Pitney Bowes Management Services has launched PrintWorks™, a consultancy approach to print management designed to eliminate inefficiencies and bring cost-saving process improvements to businesses of every size.
In many offices, the lack of an overall print strategy, coupled with outdated technology, is typical. Decisions regarding the quantity, placement and capability of print devices such as desktop printers, copiers and fax machines are often left to individual departments.
Addressing these business issues can save businesses as much as 30% or more on their print-related costs while significantly boosting productivity.
PrintWorks gives businesses visibility of their entire operation and provides a holistic plan to ensure print capabilities match specific needs. Overall print spend can be tracked through consolidated reporting, and cost-saving measures like non-OEM consumables and preventative on-site maintenance can be introduced to avoid costly repairs.
During particularly heavy print volume peaks the PrintWorks solution can also include the additional security and capacity provided by affiliate off-site print centres. Sending the right job to the best site reduces monthly fixed costs and provides easy access to dedicated technology, including high-volume printers, collating and binding equipment and document digitalisation solutions.
Hedley Walker, Director of Mailstream Solutions, Pitney Bowes, states: “PrintWorks brings together the right mix of resources, equipment and supplies and has the necessary flexibility to stay in step with evolving print management demands.
“Our sole focus with Printworks is to add efficiencies and reduce costs for our customers.”
