| Today’s competitive business environment
motivates us to find areas where costs can be reduced. The challenge
many of us face is reducing costs without hurting productivity.
Surprisingly, there are a few opportunities where you can reduce
costs and actually improve productivity. One of these opportunities
may be found in your fleet of printers.
Growing Costs
Printers consume between 1 and 3 percent of an organization’s
annual revenue, according to a recent study by the Gartner Group.
Print volumes grow at double digit rates every year as more information
is distributed through email and the Internet. Most IT departments
do not know how many hardcopy devices are in their enterprises
because of the fragmented purchase decisions made by line-of-business
management, IT, purchasing, and operations.
Significant Source of Savings
According to a recent HP study, savings of between 8 and 42% are
possible if the printer environment is optimized. These benefits
can be achieved by simply optimizing your current print assets—without
adding more printers.
Consider the following example of a $10 million company:
| Annual Print Cost/ Savings
|
1% of Revenue
$100,000 |
3% of Revenue
$300,000 |
| 8% Reduction |
$8,000 |
$24,000 |
| 42% Reduction |
$42,000 |
$126,000 |
|
When you apply the same percentages to your annual revenue, doesn’t
it make sense to take a closer look at Print Optimization?
