Craig Brown, Head of Print Solutions at Office Depot, said:
“Integrating a focus on the three S‘s within our overall print offering
relates back to the infrastructure of the overall Business Service
Division, which dictates that customers can make one call, highlight
their requirements and then be provided with a tailored brief that fits
their needs exactly.”
Competitively priced
Last year, the UK’s largest dealer buying group Integra Office Solutions
announced the launch of its managed print software solution which
gives members a competitively priced, easy to implement system to
roll out to their key customers.
Integra now believes it has the ideal solution which ticks all the
boxes; a sensibly priced, ‘entry level’ print audit system which is easy to
implement by both the dealer and the customer.
Integra members have access to a comprehensive programme that
includes FM Audit and InMap software tools that will help them move
away from the transactional-based sales approach to a more solutions-
based model.
Commercial Director, Bob Davies, said: “MPS is becoming
increasingly important in the office products market. Many of our
members are already providing print and copy devices on a click model
and, for them, the move towards a managed print service isn’t such
a great leap. For more tranasaction-based dealers our managed print
software solution will help them to put their toes in the water to
provide customers with an added value managed service.”
Service-driven solution
The wholesale sector, too, has launched dedicated MPS offerings.
Spicers has partnered with print reseller and MPS provider Balreed, who
will deliver MPS services to end-users on behalf of Spicers’ resellers.
Balreed MPS specialists will, in collaboration with a Spicers reseller,
visit a customer to conduct a thorough review of the print infrastructure.
Following an assessment, the team will design a best in class solution
which is then fully managed throughout the contract term.
Due to the unique requirements and levels of support needed from
every individual end user, VOW’s Managed Print Service is a three
tiered solution designed to enable VOW+ Resellers to offer a flexible,
tailored and vendor-neutral solution to suit their customers’ needs.
VOW’s solution is offered in partnership with two of the industry’s
leaders in technology, knowledge and service: PrintFleet, global leader
in managed print software; and M2, Europe’s leading independent
managed print IT service company.
