Why Compare Print?

The Case for Implementing Print Management Services from Compare Print

Many organisations have limited resources to allocate to print procurement and find the process takes up valuable staff time, and lack the print experience and expertise required for this function. Engaging a Print Management company is like having a Print Professional on your staff when you need them, with the back up of a whole team of experts in their specific areas, all at no extra cost. Even after our management fees are included we get better pricing than our clients are able to because we have access to trade pricing, and we know the right type of supplier for each job. We also evaluate and advise the best options for finishing, binding, storage, distribution and freight which is usually all outsourced by the print manufacturer.

Print companies are not always renowned for their customer service levels and client liaison, however they may well be a very good print supplier. They all have different areas of expertise and often outsource print jobs that are not suitable for their machinery without your knowledge. This is why clients often report wide variations in pricing, along with the fact that sometimes print suppliers lower their costs to win a client but increase them over time to compensate. Only by using an independent print management company can you be assured of consistently receiving the best possible service, pricing, timeframe management and quality control throughout the whole process.
