Print management outsourcing can provide a wealth of benefits to businesses, handling the full print process from start to finish. Over the years, the term has been used in different ways, but at the heart of print management outsourcing is the ability to aggregate all aspects of a business’ print in one centralised place, which, in turn, can dramatically cut costs and save time.
Outsourcing should not be confused with printer management, which is the maintenance of the printers in your office. Instead, print management outsourcing takes the full printing process off of your hands, providing your business with a trustworthy and all-inclusive service, covering consultancy, production, coordination, and distribution. Let’s take a look at these in more detail.
Consultancy
Print management specialists provide more than just products. One of the key services a print company can offer is a comprehensive consultancy. The first step to print management is a thorough print audit whereby your business’ existing print process will be extensively analysed. This highlights areas of the print process that can be optimised.
Common outcomes of a print audit include finding solutions to…
- Make the end-to-end process more streamlined
- Make the supply base more suitable and effective
- Speed up the print manufacturing process
- Reduce operational costs by making customer communications more efficient
- Reduce overall print spend
- Make distribution and delivery more sustainable
- Reduce waste and redundant stock
