G4S Cash Solutions streamlines office automation environment with Itec

June 2010 News & Events

G4S Cash Solutions, a provider of integrated cash management solutions, has selected Itec as its service provider and supplier of choice to boost the efficiency and reduce the costs of its office automation environment.

With 36 offices countrywide, G4S runs a substantial office automation infrastructure that makes a significant contribution to its operational expenses. The company prints and copies in excess of 50 000 pages per month across these branches and depends on reliable office automation services to keep its business processes flowing optimally.

In 2008, the company decided that it wanted to conduct an extensive audit of this infrastructure with the goal of identifying efficiency gains and cost-savings. After it approached several suppliers, G4S was most impressed by Itec. Itec agreed to do a comprehensive review of the existing print and copy infrastructure at G4S and put together a proposal based on its findings.

Based on the findings of a per-branch, per-machine review of G4S’s office automation environment, Itec proposed a cost-effective solution that would enable G4S to achieve significant cost-savings over the five-year contractual period. Under the terms of the agreement, Itec supplies, supports and maintains the entire fleet of multifunction products for G4S.

“Today, companies like G4S are not simply buying printer hardware and maintenance,” says Shani de Koker, account executive at Itec Connect. “They are also looking to their office automation partners for help with services and consulting. Office automation suppliers need to be able to help clients optimise their costs and infrastructure.”
