Gartner research paper Rightsizing Output Fleets - 'The
Hidden Gold Mine' - research notes 19 March 2001
Gartner a technology research group, conducted this project to see if Print Manage Services were a way that organisations could save money, there bottom line conclusion was:
Output fleets represent a hidden gold mine of cost
savings to enterprises. By developing a comprehensive approach
that includes rightsizing, cost-per-page-oriented procurement and
ongoing management of the fleets, enterprises can reap the
savings benefits of this often-overlooked technology area.
A great example:
e-solutions was approached in 2008 by The Cotswold Group. A leading supplier of claims validation services to the UK insurance sector. They found printing was escalating out of control, with no strategy in place since the dynamic growth of the company ad hoc printers were purchased as and when required. The scanning of documents was a laborious process and involved a lot of manual intervention before the information was available for the Case handlers to use.
The Solution
e-solutions conducted a print audit to initially identify how much their printing was actually costing the Group, how much printing the Group was doing and more importantly why they were doing it that way.
e-solutions recommended removing all 14 ink jet printers and replacing them with 3 Canon Multifunctional Printers, with full advanced scanning capability. Along with Remote diagnostic service so that the print solutions was managed by e-solutions to take all administration away from The Cotswold Group.
Dave Phillips, Chief Operations Officer, confirmed the solution implemented by e-solutions has saved the Group over £24,000 per annum, and has given them a print strategy based on their growth targets. He said "With the new print strategy and the ability to scan multiple documents onto the system and for these to be readily available to Case Handlers, we have accelerated the process significantly. This has enabled the company to cope with a 33% increase in Claims volumes this year. With these new innovations The Cotswold Group has introduced a paperless office this year".
