Developing a sustainable enterprise imaging and printing strategy

Manyorganizationslaunchinitiativestoincreasetheefficiencyoftheirimagingandprintingenvironment—onlytoquicklyfindthatmaintaining those improvements is the real challenge. Sustainable, long-termefficiencygainsrequirethatimagingandprintingbeapproached as part of your organization’s overall IT strategy.

It takes more than technology to reach and maintain that optimal state.

HP MPS solutioning methodology

The overall HP approach is to get the right number and types of devices in the right locations toaddressuserneeds—withtherightprintpoliciesandgovernanceinplacetomanagetheenvironmentovertime.Becausedifferentorganizationshavedifferentneeds,aflexiblesolutioning approach that balances goals of cost reduction, productivity and end-user satisfaction is an important consideration. When designing the optimal imaging and printing infrastructureforyourorganizationthefollowingcomponentsneedtobeevaluated,bothindividually and as an integrated system:

• Utilization

• Functionality

• Userprofiles

• Security

• Environmental sustainability

• Workflow

• Totalcostofownership(TCO)

Thesectionsthatfollowdescribeeachofthesesolutioningcomponentsandhowtogethertheyform the basis for a successful strategy and ongoing optimization.

Utilization

Utilizationshouldbeaprimarydriverinformingtheeffectivedesignofyournewimagingandprintinginfrastructure.Achievingtherightcombinationoftechnology(hardwareandsoftware)andservicesattherighttimeandplacewiththerightamountofcapacityandefficienciesis an outcome that most organizations desire. Unfortunately, many technology and service recommendations do not take utilization fully into account.

Onceanorganizationidentifiesthevalueofaspecifictechnologyorservice,decisionsaremadeonacquiringthosecapabilities.Inmanycases,thattechnologyorserviceisdesignedtoserveacontinuumofcapacityneeds,whichmeansthatmanyorganizationsfallwellshortofeffectiveutilization. For example, some studies reveal that the average multifunction device (MFD) printsaround8,000pagespermonth.However,thisissometimeslessthan25percentofMFDcapacity.Andthisunderutilizationresultsinahighertotalcostofownership(TCO).

Userratio,walkdistanceandprocessflowareusedfrequentlyasmetricsforsolutiondesign.Althoughthesemetricshavevalue,theyshouldbesubservienttooverallutilization.Here’swhy.

User-to-device ratioForthepastdecade,mostoutputdesignstrategieshavebeenledbyuserratios,whereanalysiscalculatestheaverageaccesstooutputbasedonhowmanyusersshareadevice.Thisapproachisflawedinseveralways.Forone,auserhasotheroutputoptionsthatcannotbecalculatedintotheuserratio,suchasdatacenteroutput,copycentersandoff-siteproductionsites. In addition, these user ratios only reveal the median. Organizations have varying needs basedondiverseusergroups.Whileonelargefacilitymayfollowauserratioclosertotheaverage,asmallersiteorusergroupwithdifferentoutputneedsmightdivergewidelyfromtheaverage ratio, making it unrealistic to manage an environment based on this metric alone.

Finally,differentindustrieshavedifferentprintintensitiesthatgenericuserratiosdon’ttakeintoaccount. For example, the print intensity and volume of a professional services organization are quitedifferentthantheintensityandvolumeseeninmanufacturing.Despitethesedrawbacks,vettinganeffectiveoutputdesignagainstuserratioshelpstoensurethatutilizationalonedoesnotcreateanadverseoutputstrategy.Anexampleofthismightbewhereoneenvironmenthashigh-volumeusers,whichwoulddictatemoredevices,yettheuserratiowouldprotectanoutputstrategydesignfromapplyingtoomanyortoofewdevicesforoutput.

Walk distanceAmorerecenttrendofoutputstrategydesigniswalkdistance.Althoughwalkdistanceisrelevant to user productivity, it’s easy to misinterpret. Again, end-user variability comes into play.Considerahigh-volumeuserinmarketingorfinancecomparedtoalow-volumeuserwithfewerimagingandprintingneeds.Thedistanceahigh-volumeusermustwalktoaccessadeviceimpactsproductivitymuchdifferentlythanthedistancealow-volumeuserwalks.Requirementsspecifictoofficeandproductionprintingneedsshouldbefactoredin.Andthen there are security and compliance considerations, including pull or PIN printing. Other considerationsincludemission-criticalprintneeds,workerswithspecialaccessibilityneedsorevenbuildinglayout.Overall,walkdistanceshouldbeacomponentofthebroaderdesigncriteria versus a leading design strategy.

Process flowPlacingtoomuchemphasisongenericprocessrequirementsisanothertraptoavoid.Dependingontheindustry,thereareuniqueprocessconsiderations.Andyes,theseareconsiderations that can be measured and benchmarked. But the relevance of process flowfortheuniqueneedsofanindustryorindividualuserisoftenoverlysimplisticandcounterproductivetoaneffectiveoutputstrategy.

Considertheuniqueprocessconsiderationsfordifferentindustriesandtheirusers.

Bottom lineUser ratios should be used to vet the output strategy and help ensure that end users have the access they need. User ratios should not be thesoledeterminant,butinsteadbalancedwithutilization to ensure optimal productivity.

Bottom lineUsewalkdistancetohelpensureproductivityismaintainedwhileutilizationismaximized.Insomecases,additionalservicesorworkflowsolutionsarenecessary to meet the needs of users instead of simplylocatingdevicesclosertotheircubesoroffices.

Bottom lineAneffectiveoutputstrategybeginswithutilizationas the primary goal, supported by strong links to all the other solutioning components. Maximizing theutilizationofatechnologyorservicelowersthe cost per page and improves business processes,whichtranslatesintoalowerTCOandincreased client loyalty.

Functionality

AnotherapproachthatrequirescautionistheideaofstandardizingonuniversaldeviceslikeMFDs.Fromaprocurementperspectiveit’sanidealscenario.Nomatterwheretheenduserislocated(includingmobileusers),theMFDsofferthefunctionalitytomeetanyunforeseenneed.It also helps procurement leverage economies of scale around unit pricing.

Thisattempttostandardize,however,oftenresultsin“oversolutioning”andisapoorstrategyfor addressing true usage needs. First, those added features increase manufacturing costs. Anall-MFDstrategyonlyworksifyoumaximizeutilizationofeachfeature.Thentherearetheinfrastructurecostsassociatedwithsupportingthesemore-complexdevicesonthenetwork.Each additional feature increases the chance of incremental service failure points. In short, acquisitioncostandsupportcanbenegativelyimpacted.Instead,let’slookathowfunctionalityshouldbeoptimizedinbalancewithdocumentedusagetrends.Figure2representsanexampleof typical user needs.

Basedonthisscenario,whatdecisionsshouldyoumakeintermsofaccesstocolorprinting?11x17pageprinting?Finishingoptions?Eachofthesefeatureshascostimplicationswhendesigningtheoptimal imaging and printing environment. It only makes sense to standardize access to the most commonly used features and centralize access to lesser-used features. Then it’s important to include management of change and end-user training to reinforce desired policies and behaviors. Figure3illustratesasamplefloorplanbasedontheaggregateneedsfromFigure2.

Bottom lineStandardizing on universal MFDs might simplify procurement, but it fails to take into account usage patterns and needs.

User profiles

Another common approach to output design is to simplify user support by standardizing service levels.Butagain,endusershavedifferentneeds.Servicelevelsprovidetheessentialsupportrequiredformaintainingproductivity,buttheyshouldbebalancedagainstutilizationandfunctionalityconsiderations.Developingandupdatinguserprofileshelpsensurethattherightinfrastructure is in place for evolving user needs.

Takethisscenario,forexample.Toavoidmissingprojectmilestonesorlosingmission-criticalapplications, some organizations believe they need to maximize uptime by having on-site servicetechnicianstoaddressbreak-fixrequirementsorshortenproblemresolutionwindows.These organizations may be asking for more than they need. For example, if a service technician isstationedatanaveragebuilding(typically500to1,000people)tomeettheserequirements,thefleetthatthetechnicianwouldbesupportingistypicallylessthan100devices(assuminggood design principles). Historically, HP devices average one service incident annually, so in this scenariothetechnicianwouldberesponsibleforjust100break-fixincidentsannually.Unlessthattechniciancanbeutilizedforotherbuildingsorotherservices(possiblyrequiringdifferentskill sets), the service is dramatically underutilized.

Anotherexampleinvolvesdesigningcopycenter/productionprintingcapabilitiesforanorganization’s building or campus. Is a full-service on-site copy center designed to meet the needsofhigher-endfunctionality(e.g.,posters,lamination,bindery)appropriate,orareoff-sitealternativesabetteroption(orsomecombinationofon-site/off-siteoptions)?Utilizationmethodologywouldsuggestthatdecisionsregardingcopycenter/productionprintingrequirementsbebuiltoncore,commonlyneededrequirements,usingoff-sitealternativestohandle the more esoteric needs.

Environmental sustainability

Aneffectiveoutputdesignshouldsaveenergyandpaperandlessenanorganization’senvironmentalimpact.Forexample,consolidatingmultiplesingle-usedevicestofewer,moreenergy-efficientmultifunctiondevicescancutenergyuseandcosts.(Althoughit’simportantto not overly standardize on MFDs, as discussed earlier.) And the ability to easily digitize documentsandautomatepaperbasedworkflowshelpsreducepaperuse.Smartinfrastructuremanagement enables further carbon footprint reduction by customizing device-level energy and paper settings, and encouraging responsible end-of-use recycling.

Throughenvironmentalassessmentsandconsultingservices,wehelpclientstounderstandand reduce the environmental impact of their printing and imaging. We conduct a thorough analysis of each client’s printing and imaging practices and produce a roadmap to improve performance,coveringareassuchasenergyconsumption,paperuse,recycling,fleetdesign,userbehaviors,security,andworkflowimprovements.

Pre- and post-analyses of HP MPS client engagements reveal:

• Energysavingsofbetween30and80percent1

Total cost of ownership

Before entering into a managed print services engagement, it’s important to understand the full spectrumofcostsassociatedwithimagingandprinting.Itcanbetemptingtofocusonoverlybasiccomponentsofimagingandprinting(hardware,supplies,support,financing)andcost-per-page metrics (the cost of putting ink or toner on a page). HP’s approach is to make visible the true costs of print, the true value of driving out infrastructure and management costs, and thetruevalueofautomatingpaper-basedworkflows.

Again,utilizationmustbetakenfullyintoconsiderationwhencalculatingthesetrue costs—somethingthatmanytechnologyandserviceprovidersfailtoaccountfor.Inordertotake a more strategic approach to managing imaging and printing investments, HP encourages organizations to take a closer look at the costs of print as depicted in Figure 8. This more strategic approach takes into consideration the investments needed in those imaging- and printing-related hardware,supplies,softwareandservicesthathavethemostsignificantimpact.

Bottom lineRealizing the full potential and value of your imagingandprintinginvestmentsrequiresunderstanding and addressing the true costs ofimagingandprinting—includingutilization.Focusing on cost-per-page and other traditional metrics is simply not enough.
