Numbers Add Up to Bidding for GPO Work Being Worth the Effort

The most effective GPO printers have two things in common:

• they use a full-service print management firm to ensure their success, and
• they maximize usage of production capacity.

They receive from the government print management firm all available GPO jobs and programs that meet their individualized production requirements and capabilities. This allows each to bid on work that conveniently fills otherwise unused production time, thereby adding revenues and increasing profitability. This is key because production utilization for printers, using a full-service print management firm, increases from an average of 70 percent to full utilization of 90 to 95 precent.
