Challenge
Solution
We conducted an upfront assessment to identify the reasons why Katy ISD couldn't complete projects in a timely manner.
Armed with this information, we implemented:
Managed Print Services
Managed Print Services for the print shop and a fleet of output devices located across 50+ campuses.
Support and training
Round-the-clock support.
Staff training on equipment.
Print management tools
Print management tools
Online interface for job submission.
A tracking system that enables Katy ISD to monitor jobs and stay on top of both expenses and savings.
Result
With new workflows and our managed services, the Katy ISD print shop offers 48-hour turnaround time from job submission to completion.
Confidence is restored in the print shop, and the volume proves it: more than 4 million impressions a month now, compared to the previous 1.5 million. Better yet, 99% of their printing is done in-house, whereas previously 80% was outsourced. In a recent school year, Katy ISD saved $350,000.
