How We Do It
Mapping Out The Current State
Our first step is to gain a clear understanding of your current copier output environment, including business processes surrounding the output. This stage includes a deep dive into the goals and needs of your organization with your very own monthly copier service analyst, who will conduct interviews with key stakeholders and pull device-level information to create a map of the existing state using custom software. We will create benchmarks and extract data where possible to begin forming recommendations and establish metrics for improvement.
Developing A Holistic Plan
Once we have mapped-out the current state and understand the unique needs of your organization, your monthly copier service analyst will identify vulnerabilities and provide a recommendation to re-engineer the environment through copier optimization, software enhancements, and process reconfiguration. Within the recommendation, we will address concerns such as data security, cost capture, and sustainability with technology and workflow optimization such as:
- Single point of contact for your copier output infrastructure
- Real-time reporting for transparency of copier output and costs
- Secure print functionality
- Cost recovery and bill-back technology
- Sustainability and print cost management tools
- Automatic proactive toner replenishment
- Automatic meter collection
Seamless Implementation
Initiatives designed to re-envision the way your organization operates are often an overwhelming concept for all stakeholders involved. At Advance, we design a custom implementation plan that fits your organization’s needs while creating as little disruption as possible. Using custom mapping software, we provide you with a visualization of the change process to give you a 360 degree view of the change process before implementation. We view the implementation plan as a collaborative effort, taking into account input and feedback from members of your organization. This allows us to incorporate all necessary considerations to create a seamless execution and also creates buy-in from all areas of the organization, not just the decision makers.
Optimization That Never Rests
Once the monthly copier service is implemented, your dedicated account team and analyst will continue to measure, monitor, and manage your copier output. We will continually look for opportunities to right-size and optimize the infrastructure based on changing needs or evolving usage. During regular Strategic Business Reviews, we will discuss optimizations and provide extensive reporting, inclusive of service history, will be provided to you and your team to give you complete transparency of copier output, costs, and improvements taking place within the environment.
