1. DOCUMENT PURPOSE

The purpose of this document is to detail the requirements for the Print Optimisation Project High Volume Print Outsource. The document will specify the solution needs of Manningham City Council (MCC) and outline the basic and essential functions required in the outsourced print services model that is to be delivered.

This document is intended for use by Manningham City Council and external vendors.

2. CURRENT SYSTEM

2.1. MCC Print Room

The MCC Print Room is serviced by a combination of old devices, which whilst functioning effectively currently are either out of service contract, or costing money to maintain on an annual basis. The cost to repair, replace or renew printing devices adds significant hidden cost to high volume print. By outsourcing high volume print to an external provider, there will be greater opportunity for wider range of print products via more up to date technology which may less expensive as well as being available both inside and outside normal office hours. .

2.2. Manual Reporting

Currently cost reporting regarding print is primarily recorded in an offline system. This makes dynamic and up to date information requests challenging and dependent on the system’s user availability This single point dependency is not optimal and leads to time consuming and often delayed reporting.

Such reporting inefficiencies will be removed, or at least reduced considerably with an outsourced Print Service that provides full reporting functionality

2.3. Resource Availability

The MCC Print Room is currently open 4 days a week. Its operational hours sit within core business hours, and it is closed for an hour each day.

Improved service delivery and turnaround times are likely to be achieved by outsourcing to a 7 day a week operation that also has multi-site availability.

Print Optimisation Requirements Specification High Volume Print Page 7 of 20

Manningham City Council Corporate Projects – 010b CP Requirements Specification

2.4. Business Process

Current Process

2.5. Current Procedures

All standard operational tasks of print room service will be performed by the selected provider. These tasks include:

• Printing • Copying • Enveloping • Laminating • Finishing

2.6. Current Deficiencies

There are a number of inefficiencies with the current print services function, including:

• Outdated technology • Reduced products/services based on resource/device availability • Limited hours of operation • Single point dependency

Such inefficiencies will be removed, or at least reduced considerably with a fully outsourced print service.

2.7. Key Features to Retain

Any outsourced print service must provide as a minimum, the current functionality of the existing print room this functionality includes:

• Printing • Copying • Enveloping • Laminating • Finishing

3. BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS Overview: Manningham City Council is looking to outsource the full functionality of its previous in house print room. Along with improving on the previous functionality of this facility, a successful vendor should also be able to match the level of customer service and responsive turnaround times appropriate to Councils ongoing needs.
