Xerox has signed a five-year contract to install its Enterprise Print Services at the Rialto Unified School District.
Using Xerox’s print governance feature, the newest addition to the company’s MPS portfolio, Xerox says Rialto will increase savings to nearly $500,000 by better managing print across its 25 buildings.
The OEM says Rialto will implement automated, rules-based settings that “help staff make smarter printing decisions”. For example, when a teacher hits print on a 250-page document, a notification appears advising them that the print job would cost less if sent to the school’s print centre instead of a printer in the main office.
Joseph Davis, Deputy Superintendent at Rialto said: "With stretched budgets and staff we can’t be doing what others can do more efficiently and more cost-effectively. As a strategic partner, Xerox is solving our business problems so we can stay focused on educating our 27,000 students – and saving valuable budget dollars that can now be redirected to student programs and employee retention.”
President of Xerox’s Global Document Outsourcing North America John Kelly said: “The public sector is discovering the MPS opportunity – schools, universities, counties and state governments are reaping the cost savings and efficiency benefits of letting us manage print for them while they focus on their core business.”
