What Are the Most Important Issues for Print and Electronic Service Providers Today?

Document Digitization: PriceWaterhouseCoopers found that digitization will lower costs by 3.6 percent and boost revenues by 2.9 percent per year through 2020. Yet great challenges exist due to digitization. Consumers expect flexibility and reliable, fast responses in communication, such as the provision of policies. They want this available via all channels. But this is complicated because channels, whether social media, chatbots, or anything else, each have their own rules. They must be carefully managed to ensure that every communication sent across them is compliant with regulations and carries sensitive information to customers securely.

Organizations that provide Print-for-Hire services have been an important part of the business community for decades, providing relief to organizations that want to concentrate on their own core business without necessarily all doing the support work themselves. But it must be acknowledged that digitization makes regulatory compliance more difficult because of the sheer number of communication channels that are opened up as a result.

Traditional Print Service Providers transform more and more to Electronic Service Providers.

Now more than ever PSPs are adding skills and strategic services to make them more indispensable to their clients: data and marketing services, digital output and logistics are among the many competencies that traditional PSPs might now offer their clients.

Here are most relevent issues for Print and Electronic Service Providers that are worth keeping an eye on:

Small Jobs = Big Job Setup - Big Job Profit Margins

Print Job Management

One of the worst problems facing printers is the need to take on small jobs. Small jobs require about the same amount of effort and set-up that big jobs do (if you are going to do it right) but without the high profitability.

It makes sense to combine jobs in a single batch, but only if the branding and business rules specific to each business is respected.

Omni-Channel-Communication

Omni-Channel-Communication

Business customers require that their jobs are not just printed and mailed but also prepared for delivery on an increasing number of channels.

One PSP added 13 new channels to its repertoire in 2018 and expects that number to double next year.

Standarization of Archived Documents

Standarization of Archived Documents

Business customers want to archive and retrieve documents on demand. These archived documents must be 100% accessible and omnichannel.

Central rendition services are now the responsibility of PSPs.

Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory Compliance

Many business customers now require that their business partners know and help them comply with regulations as a cost of doing business.

It might be best to frame regulatory compliance in the positive: customers trust companies that are compliant with regulations and prefer to do business with them. A company’s commitment to respecting ethical codes is good for its brand and can boost consumer engagement by as much as 40%.

Customer Experience, Customer Communication

Customer Experience, Customer Communication

Business leaders increasingly realize that the document output strategy must be tightly aligned with business needs. With so many technology channels for customer communication, PSPs must learn how to be strategic in how they create a great customer experience for their clients.

How Can Compart Help My Print and Electronic Document Business Thrive?

Transform your Business with Transforms

Businesses rely on their investments in expensive equipment running all the time at full capacity. Changing document formats is easier than changing equipment.
Keep your machinery running at full capacity by transforming document formats that can be run on your available printers and inserters.

Digital First Approach

The first priority for traditional insurers should be to stimulate a culture of innovation and to have a” digital first” approach.

Customers and employees need to be able to interact in real-time through digital channels.

Compare Documents

In the omnichannel world, Quality Assurance solutions need to compare documents that are to be rendered in every channel: print, mobile, web, social…in order to comply with state by state regulations.

Tighter Service Level Agreements mean making mistakes can be even more costly than they were befor – so know before you go: check, test and check again before you print a word. We can show you how.

Automated Document Checking

Implementing Tests

You need to be able to test for both intended and unintended changes, even exposing issues not clearly visible but potentially problematic…down to the pixel level. Since you don’t make a cent by complying with regulations, QA needs to be fast so you can get back to business.

Centralized Document Output

Document creators can send their customer communication directly from their PC to a centralized production print center or Archive. Empower your agents in the field. Save time and money—and your brand equity.
