Managed Print for Oil & Gas Companies
Oil & Gas companies face unique challenges in managing internal print operations. Managed Print Services (MPS) offer a strategic solution to streamline these operations, reduce costs, and enhance security.
The Challenges of Print Operations in the Utilities
Managing print operations for an enterprise energy company can be a logistical nightmare for the internal IT team. The vast amount of documentation, including regulatory reports, operational manuals, and contracts, requires a highly efficient print management system. Without proper management, print operations can quickly become chaotic, leading to significant inefficiencies and increased costs.
This chaos is both visible – in equipment downtime, loss of productivity, or lowered staff morale, and invisible – in hidden costs, device misallocation, and security threat
Rogue Spending and Overspending
Without a centralized print management system, departments may procure their own printers and supplies, leading to inconsistent purchasing and inflated costs. This rogue spending can quickly spiral out of control, impacting the organization’s budget.
Loss
of Productivity
Inefficient print operations can lead to frequent equipment breakdowns, causing delays and reducing productivity. Employees may spend valuable time troubleshooting printer issues instead of focusing on their core responsibilities.
Cyber Security Gaps
and Threats of Breach
In the age of digital information, the security of printed documents is just as important as digital files. Unmanaged print environments are vulnerable to cyber security threats, including unauthorized access to sensitive information.
What are Managed Print Services (MPS)?
Managed Print Services (MPS) involve outsourcing the management of an organization’s print environment to a third-party provider. This includes everything from assessing the current print infrastructure to implementing and managing a more efficient system. MPS providers offer a range of services, including:
Fleet Management
Reduced overall print spend through smarter fleet management
Supply Management
Greater visibility with real-time analytics and accurate device mapping
Security Management
Simplified fleet management with fewer models and consistent service
Cost Management
Stronger compliance and accountability through secure print solutions
