As the National Joint Powers Alliance (Sourcewell) selected vendor, Marco is proud to offer its managed print services (MPS) to Sourcewell members nationwide.
What Does this Mean for Sourcewell Members?
In general, Sourcewell contracts make purchasing easier for school systems looking to upgrade services, hospitals looking for better solutions, or government agencies looking to purchase new equipment, for example. The problem these organizations often face is wasted time and money as a result of request for proposals (RFPs).
The RFP process requires groups such as yours to submit a request to providers and manufacturers for services to be delivered. Then your organization has to wait for competitive solicitations to return. In many cases, the ones you receive exceed your budget or fail to provide service solutions that match your operational demands. In this event, the entire RFP process has wasted time and now you're left scrambling to find new services before your budget timeline expires.
As a member of Sourcewell, you can now obtain managed print services from Marco without the headache and waste of resources involved in the RFP process.
In addition to securing cooperate contracts with trusted providers and manufacturers, Sourcewell routinely checks the status of service providers to ensure they are continually providing accurately for the needs of Sourcewell members. You get the services you need at a price you can afford, without wasting time or money.
What are Managed Print Services?
The goal of managed print services is to gain greater visibility and control of your printing services. Doing so can help you save money and boost productivity in your organization, while also contributing to environmental sustainability and document security.
MPS refers to the total cost of managing and optimizing the printers in use by the employees in your office. This includes the output of individual devices, the people that use those devices and the processes that support them. MPS includes:
- Tracking and monitoring the pages produced by your employees.
- Managing your device fleet, which may include desktop printers, multifunction printers, copiers and scanners.
- Providing help desk support, technical services and maintenance of equipment.
- Monitoring and automating shipment of toner.
Advantage of Marco Managed Print Services
Marco provides you with managed print services that are designed to meet your print demand, often utilizing many or all of the devices you currently have in place.
It is not the goal of Marco to sell you specific products, but rather, to provide your organization with a service solution that gets the best possible results for you. As Sourcewell’s national vendor for MPS, Marco is proud to contribute to the needs of school districts, government agencies and nonprofits by helping you save money, enhance productivity and streamline your print operations.
