The Future of Cost Management Today
Brooks Technology Management offers a remarkable solution for today's business client. We are a single-source provider for all your print management needs. We are also one of the few companies capable of offering you true Cost Management services, whereby our primary operational objectives are cost control, cost avoidance, and cost savings!
All of our decisions are linked to these objectives, where they are tracked, analyzed, managed, and reported.
Print is often an un-audited expense that is seen as either unmanageable or inconsequential. Yet it is important to realize that an average company spends almost $1,000 annually per employee for print and print-related expenses, or roughly 1 to 3 percent of their corporate revenue. It is NOT inconsequential. It is a very real and expensive cost that must be properly managed, preferably by an organization with industry experience and the right print management tools.
With that in mind, our relationship with you is much like a strategic alliance. With Brooks Technology Management, the cost of print and copy can be managed and budgeted as never before. In fact, it is not unusual for Brooks Technology Management to lower the costs their client's spend on print by as much as 30 to 50 percent.
How is this possible? We assume responsibility for your entire print environment, fully accepting the financial exposure that comes with managing it. A service rate is negotiated in advance. Within that rate are all the expenses you would typically incur. When we reduce inefficiencies and lower costs, we create profit for ourselves and an opportunity to lower the rate you pay to us.
With accountability comes responsibility. Your print environment should not be managed any other way. This is why our Cost Management Program works!
First, we utilize the most scalable and sophisticated print management tools in the market to gather information on your print environment quickly and efficiently. These tools, from Miracom Network, provide real-time and historical data that allows us to make both operational and strategic decisions on your print environment.
Whether it's paper jams, low-toner alerts, or any other issue, Brooks Technology Management will know they are happening real-time, and can immediately dispatch a service technician to that device to promptly repair or adjust it to maximum efficiency before it impacts your productivity and resources.
Second, historical data on your print devices will provide us with information on your consumable yields. We will monitor inefficient cartridges, and through strategic partnerships with vendors and manufacturers, are able too address the costs associated with these.
However, low yields are not always an indication of poor cartridge quality. Instead it may be an indication of other issues, such as a fuser unit producing poor transfer rates. By knowing this kind of information, sooner rather than later, we can resolve print device issues, which may not be apparent, before they cost you money or impact your productivity.
Third, we provide outsourcing services in which we can manage your entire print environment, regardless of size and location. We will provide you with Web-based access to important data on your print environment, information that most service providers either don't have access to or choose not to share with their clients. We also provide you with the ability to request service on-line, and track the status of service requests.
Fourth, we provide complete Cost Management services. There is no value-added offering a service provider can extend to a client that is more strategic! Amazingly, the exceptional value we provide doesn't cost anymore than what a traditional service provider might charge you for repair and supplies services. Why settle for less when you can have so much more?
We are a strategic solution to your print management needs, positioned to manage your print environment by using exceptional technology that allows us to provide you with continuous process improvement, based on extensive data, analysis and reporting. Our impact on your business is not a one-time event.
