Print Consultancy

The Arena approach is based on the philosophy that we must first understand the needs of our customers in order to be able to suggest the most appropriate solutions. Though the issue of printing and copying documents may seem quite simple, there are many ways in which we can help reduce costs and increase efficiencies simply by supplying the right combination of print hardware and software.

Our approach usually consists of:

Initial briefing
At the first stage we will attempt to assess what you would like to achieve. This could be to reduce costs, increase quality, improve accessibility of print devices, cost recovery (departmental billing) or simply to find out how much copying and printing is occurring in your organisation and how much this is costing.

Fact finding
The next stage is to investigate the current situation. In order to find out the needs of the organisation we will look into exactly how the current copy and print devices are used. By observing and asking the right questions, the experience of our team allows them to quickly identify the areas needing attention. If required we can also use software, such as print audit 5, to get an accurate record of exactly what is being printed when and where.

Present the options with tangible benefits
Using all the data we have collected we will then present a number of options, depending on the objectives that we identified in the initial briefing.

The most common scenario would see us using the data obtained using Print audit 5 to recommend the best combination of print and copy devices that will deliver the optimum benefits in terms of costs and efficiencies. The depth of data obtained from print audit even allows us to show the exact cost savings that will be made, using the recorded data.

Informed decision
Finally, the above process then puts the customer in the position to make an informed decision.
