Managed print services (MPS), along with related services and solutions, represent fundamental growth opportunities for print manufacturers and their partners. However, the market is mature, forcing MPS providers to differentiate themselves with new offerings. Today MPS has largely been repositioned in the broader realm of digital workflow transformation. While most providers offer a broad portfolio to help drive workplace productivity and efficiency, Quocirca’s 2018 MPS survey reveals that some are falling short in the key areas needed to support this – analytic insight, workflow automation and innovation. MPS providers should deepen their competencies in these areas and expand their influence in the enterprise through participating in the broader managed security and internet of things (IoT) space. This will enable providers to become trusted partners for services beyond print.
This report examines the competitive landscape for managed print services (MPS) and discusses the key market drivers and trends that will shape future MPS engagements. It also draws on new research conducted in June 2018. The survey covered organisations with over 500 employees using MPS in the UK, France, Germany and the US.
