THE ORGANISATIONAtkins is the largest engineering consultancy in the UK, and reproduces over 80 million prints per year from over 1200 devices. THE BRIEFAtkins required a single company to supply, support and manage a complex, flexible and dependable print solution. The business needed a system to control expenditure, reduce leakage, improve service and produce year-on-year cost reductions, as well as supplying real time online reports of operational compliance. Atkins wanted a complete solution within nine weeks without interrupting day-to-day business.

THE SOLUTIONM2's experienced print audit team were deployed to every Atkins site to gain a complete understanding of the company’s print and workflows. Each case was documented, and the information collated to develop a system that would deliver cost savings while increasing productivity. The system developed for Atkins uses an evolutionary approach to construct a more multifunctional platform with some of the best equipment on the market, including hardware and software from HP and Ricoh alongside the unique M2 software solution. M2's factory trained field service team provides support service within two hours for any hardware problems; while our in-house IS telephone support team handles all software issues. THE BENEFITSAtkins values M2's hands-on approach to asset and account management. This ensures that all aspects of their print and software requirements are efficiently and professionally managed from a single point of contact, requiring minimal input from Atkins personnel. Atkins has also benefited from granular billing, reducing its expenditure by a huge £1 million a year. |
