We’re on our soap box today. With a sense of indignation we look at something so many organisations take for granted – the need to print. As more output is electronic and email the business communication medium du jour it seems odd that our addiction to print isn’t challenged more often and robustly. Part of this may be due to the fact that the addiction is fed by a print and copy industry which tells us we can do the same and more for less. But is this a self-serving message?
Invu publishes a new opinion paper which looks at document and content management in the context of printing. According to Gartner research, “the typical print costs for mid-market companies are around 1-3% of revenue (Gartner 'Managed services in Europe')”. Gartner’s Predict 2011 anticipates 20-30% industry growth in managed print services until 2014 – it’s clearly a profitable sector. But at who’s cost and benefit? Our printing polemic takes an alternative view and examine why you should begin slashing your print costs.
