Managed print services
The whole fleet on one contract — hardware, consumables, servicing and support billed at an agreed cost per page.
Capability
Managed Print & Device Lifecycle
Every asset accounted for, cradle to certificate.
Print fleets and end-user devices managed from purchase order to disposal certificate.
The brief
Nobody owns the fleet, so nobody sees the cost
Print and end-user devices are the last unmanaged spend in most organisations. Cartridges are bought locally, laptops are ordered ad hoc, and retired machines sit in a cupboard with their data still on them. We take the whole lifecycle — purchase, staging, deployment, support, recovery and certified disposal — onto one register with one cost per unit, so a category that has always been fuzzy finally has a number attached.
Signals you may recognise
- Consumables are bought by individual offices with no consolidated view of spend.
- Retired laptops are stored in a cupboard, still holding company data.
- Nobody can say how many printers are actually deployed, or where.
What we deliver
Managed Print & Device Lifecycle services in detail
Each item below is scoped, priced and delivered on its own — take one, or take the set.
Print fleet optimisation
Usage-based right-sizing that removes underused devices and places the rest where the volume actually is.
Secure & follow-me printing
Badge or PIN release at the device, ending the pile of unclaimed sensitive documents on the output tray.
Device procurement & staging
Sourcing, imaging, asset tagging and kitting, with machines shipped ready to use to office or home address.
Deployment & refresh programmes
Rolling replacement waves that keep the estate current without a disruptive fleet-wide swap.
Device as a service
Hardware, support and refresh as a single monthly per-seat figure, moving spend from capital to operating cost.
Asset tracking & recovery
A live register from purchase order to return, including collection from leavers and remote workers.
Secure disposal & buy-back
Certified data erasure, responsible e-waste recycling and residual value returned to you rather than absorbed.
What it produces
Outcomes we hold ourselves to
Print spend removed
Typical reduction once volume is consolidated and the fleet is right-sized.
Predictable cost
A single cost per page or per seat replacing scattered, untracked purchases.
Certified erasure
Every retired device data-wiped to standard, with a certificate for your compliance file.
Complete chain of custody
Serial-level tracking from delivery through redeployment to recycling.
How the work runs
Count it, consolidate it, close the loop
This is a category where the first honest inventory usually pays for the whole engagement.
Count
Find every device
A physical and network discovery across sites, with volumes and consumable spend pulled from twelve months of invoices.
Consolidate
Right-size the fleet
Devices matched to real usage patterns, redundant units removed and standards agreed for what gets bought next.
Manage
Run it as a service
Automatic consumable replenishment, proactive servicing and a single monthly bill against agreed unit rates.
Close
Recover and retire
Collection, secure erasure, resale or recycling — with certificates and any residual value returned to you.
Deliverables
What lands on your side
- Complete device and print fleet inventory by site
- Baseline cost analysis with agreed unit rates
- Standard device catalogue for future purchasing
- Asset register with deployment and return history

When clients call us
Situations this work is built for
Print spend nobody has audited
Consolidating cartridge and service purchasing that has been running unexamined across a dozen locations.
Kitting out remote workers
Devices staged centrally and shipped to home addresses, then recovered cleanly when someone leaves.
Clearing a decade of old hardware
A storeroom of retired machines wiped, certified, recycled and — where there is value left — sold back into your budget.
The difference
What we bring to asset management
A category most providers treat as an afterthought.
Unit economics you can audit
We show the cost per page and per seat with the maths behind it, so you can compare us to anyone at renewal.
Disposal is part of the deal
Certified erasure and recycling are included rather than an extra line. Data on a forgotten laptop is a breach waiting for a date.
Residual value goes back to you
Where retired hardware has resale value, that money returns to your budget. It is your asset, not our margin.
Questions
Answered before you ask
From twelve months of actual volume and consumable spend, split by mono and colour. You see the baseline and the proposed rate side by side before signing anything.
No. Most engagements start by taking over the fleet you already own and retiring only the devices the usage data shows are redundant.
A per-serial erasure certificate to a recognised standard, plus the recycling documentation — the pack auditors and ISO assessors ask for.
Yes. We ship directly to home addresses, track the asset against the individual, and arrange courier collection when they leave or the device is refreshed.

Almost no one knows. A short audit produces the real figure per page, and usually a straightforward way to cut it.
