MANAGED PRINT SERVICES – WARRINGTON, MANCHESTER, CHESHIRE, LANCASHIRE
Managed Print Services is not a new solution to how a business can maximise its printing, copying and scanning, but it is one that can provide short-term cost savings, whilst adding value to the business and prime it for future growth.
No matter which business you are in there are benefits to be gained by getting your document flow and management under control. Through Managed Print Services a business can effectively manage the volume of document flowing through the organisation and minimise the costs associated with printing, sharing and updating of documents. By reviewing digital and paper document volume, related work processes and the technology that supports it, it is possible to develop a plan that achieves the right formula for existing employee work habits, daily volume and organisational readiness for any future changes.
Sharples Group offers businesses the opportunity to outsource responsibility for printers, copiers, faxes and multifunction devices to their professional team. With years of experience, a highly trained team of engineers and an in-depth knowledge of what is on the market, they can help businesses get their document workflow under control.
Sharples Group is already working in partnership with a variety of businesses in the North West of England providing Managed Print Services that result in savings of 30% to 50% on their printing and copying bill along with a potential reduction of their carbon footprint by 50%. Sharples Group pride themselves in providing a service and building long term partnerships and relations with clients that takes full advantage of the long-term benefits of Managed Print Service by ensuring that the right people and technology is in place for the desired results of the business.
As a business changes and evolves, so must their printing, copying, scanning and general document management. If the current technology is unable to keep up with the demand from additional employees and increased usage, it is merely a drain on financial and human resources. If the current plan does not provide flexibility to deal with fluctuations in employee population then there is an opportunity for improvement. During the current economic environment businesses may need to maintain efficiencies whilst holding onto technology assets for a longer period of time. Managed Print Service from Sharples Group can help by providing expertise in combining proven best practices with the right technology and software to ensure printing, copying, scanning and document management operations are streamlined, manual time consuming tasks are eliminated, there is quick access to information and operational costs are reduced.
Services can be as simple as a restructuring of customer owned equipment, with an objective of reducing the ratio of users to each machine to effect cost savings, to the implementation of a fully managed central print shop.
A good printing infrastructure is just as important to a business as facilities such as IT networks and telecommunications and is more effective when it is well managed. Sharples Group’s Management Print Service uses network based tools to proactively manage and monitor all devices and helps to avoid unnecessary downtime.
A Managed Print Service partnership can also help the business to protect the environment by reducing paper consumption, decreasing power usage and eliminate several tons of landfill waste.
