What makes us different?
Brand Neutral
We are the only Managed Print provider in the United States equipped to immediately support all of your print equipment, regardless of manufacturer.
Nationwide Support
We don’t rely on 3rd parties to support our enterprise clients. Advance has a network of techs based around the country to provide the same service, wherever you need it.
Exceptional People
We are more than just first-rate technology, what we truly provide is our people. A team of honest (and awesome!) individuals who care about seeing your business succeed as much as you do.
Proprietary Technology
Our data-driven solutions reduce unplanned service events and help desk calls by up to 40%, optimize your existing multi-vendor fleet, and uncover immediate cost savings.
How We Do It
Our first step is to clearly understand your current output environment, including business processes. Advance will work with any manufacturer. We can support organizations with one location or multiple locations nationwide. Advance takes a deep dive into the goals and needs of your organization with your very own Managed Print Services Analyst who conducts interviews with key stakeholders and creates a map of the existing state using custom software.
Once we understand the unique needs of your organization, we can identify vulnerabilities and provide recommendations such as fleet optimization, software enhancements, and process reconfiguration. We’ll address data security concerns, cost capture, and sustainability with technology and workflow optimization that includes:
- A single point of contact
- Real-time reporting
- Secure print functionality
- Cost recovery and bill-back technology
- Sustainability and cost management tools
- Automatic proactive toner replenishment
- Automatic meter collection
- Seamless Implementation
Once the solution is implemented, your dedicated account management team and Managed Print Services Analyst continue to measure, monitor, and manage your output environment. During regular strategic business reviews, we will discuss optimizations and provide extensive reporting.
Our proactive approach to monitoring and managing your print environment means less disruption to your resources, less downtime, and one single point of contact for your entire print environment. As a bonus, we are manufacturer-agnostic meaning that we can support any type of device under the program, including HP.
Enjoy greater flexibility in your leasing options, including fixed payments, longer terms, and tax benefits with in-house leasing. All leases are funded and managed directly by Advance, so we are able to work directly with you.
