Océ Expands Managed Print Services Offerings
TRUMBULL, CT—Dec. 21, 2010—Océ, an international leader in digital document management, announced the expansion of its Managed Print Services (MPS) program to include the new MPS Express for small office environments, and MPS Enterprise for mid- to large-sized office environments.
The Océ MPS program is designed to help corporate office environments manage their printing network, quickly and easily without the added pressure of having to invest in new printing hardware. Océ MPS offers clients of all sizes the ability to get started with MPS fast, while still realizing their specific goals and objectives for cost containment, supplies inventory reduction and overall document lifecycle management efficiencies. This is achieved through leveraging the assets they currently have, reducing on-site supplies inventory and managing their devices proactively for service and support.
“A one-size-fits-all approach will not accommodate the needs of our diverse client base. MPS Express and MPS Enterprise were designed to provide a flexible MPS offering that can meet the requirements of any sized business,” said John Reilly, president, Océ North America, Document Printing Systems. “Our approach is to extend our clients’ print output resources and asset base, regardless of what vendors they currently have installed.”
Through the Océ MPS program, Océ seeks to optimize clients’ print environments by first taking inventory of their output assets and then leveraging their current print infrastructure and extending those resources. This offers clients far more value than recommending immediate hardware replacement. The Océ MPS program is uniquely hardware indifferent, as it does not require a hardware purchase and features a short-term, services-based contract. Océ actively engages clients that have a mixed-manufacturer, legacy output fleet, including both laser and non-laser devices.
MPS Express is a simple print management program designed to allow smaller office environments to get started with MPS immediately. Upon completing a quick and simple assessment, an Océ sales representative utilizes the MPS Express Web-based tool to instantly generate a program proposal, which includes pricing based on the client's unique printing data and contract documents. There is no need for a lengthy assessment phase or installation of software to generate the proposal. Océ can begin monitoring and managing the client from day one.
MPS Enterprise is a more consultative engagement process designed for larger office environments. An Océ MPS analyst will collaborate with the client to work through their unique objectives, corresponding printing patterns and long-term goals in order to develop a customized program.
The Océ MPS program currently monitors and manages many devices within North America across various market segments, including legal, financial and health care.
