“In spite of the obvious, the decline of GPO work to the private sector for the third consecutive year, the GPO remains an important private sector market. Printers can, and should, develop the GPO into a dependable income source,” said Deborah Snider, division president of Government Print Management, a division of e-LYNXX Corp. “Having a secondary market as strong as the GPO is essential during tough economic times because it provides a resource for profitable work that will fill production gaps.
“The key to succeeding with GPO is knowing when and how to bid for jobs that will strengthen your bottom line. Our mission at Government Print Management is to help you win that work using our expertise and extensive database/archives of GPO jobs and programs,” Snider added.
While prices typically are lowered to win GPO work and fill production gaps, Snider said active GPO print suppliers increase their bottom line annual profitability from a national average of less than 2 percent to more than 14 percent when they bid low to consistently win work to fill downtime.
Snider said Government Print Managements works with many of the top 50 GPO printer suppliers and has seen an increased interest in the firm’s specialized expertise as printers strive to diversify their client base.
