Managed Print Services - An Independent Buyers Guide
Steven Hall, January 2010
The concept of a Managed Print Service (MPS) is relatively new, however, there are already numerous vendors providing various associated solutions. In view of this situation, it is essential that the buyer takes an informed and structured approach to the solution design and vendor selection process, if long-term success is to be achieved.
The guide therefore provides the buyer with the relevant knowledge to design and implement a bespoke and resilient MPS. Irrespective of the starting point and the ultimate goal of the organisations, the guide defines the best practices that will reduce cost, minimise risk and increase the performance of a MPS.
The guide starts by providing an introduction to the core elements of a MPS and then delves into the planning and communication processes that are necessary to obtain parity with the organisations needs. This is then followed by practical recommendations for producing a solution design and managing the vendor selection process.
Finally, guidance is provided in relation to operations management, Information security and sustainability. All of which are essential to building a MPS solution that continually improves and enhances the return on investment.
The guide is available now as a downloadable PDF, at a price of 13 USD.
