Today at its most important partner event in the Americas region –
Executive Forum 2018 – HP Inc. revealed how it is partnering with
ImageNet Consulting, LLC to drive growth in A3 with Smart Device
Services (SDS) remote management, lowering its service costs more
than 15 percent. Combined with HP’s unique PageWide architecture,
ImageNet’s parts and labor burden is up to 10 times less than a
traditional laser machine, enabling net new business wins and
upgrades.2
“HP is committed to driving growth for their vast partner
ecosystem. We are using the cost savings we have seen on HP
machines to invest in entering and scaling new markets,” said Pat
Russell, CEO, ImageNet Consulting, LLC. “ImageNet has benefited
first hand from how HP is reinventing A3 and service, and by taking
a unified vendor strategy across our print portfolio, we are
maximizing efficiencies and accelerating new growth.”
ImageNet is an industry leader in document management and
professional services. In addition to being a strategic partner for
HP’s imaging and printing, supplies and MPS businesses, ImageNet is
integrating options in Graphics and 3D printing. The company is
also expanding its collaboration with HP to include
Device-as-a-Service.
“ImageNet is one of the most innovative and dedicated dealers in
the industry, and we are thrilled that they have seen such
tremendous results growing our joint MPS business across both A3
and A4,” said Grad Rosenbaum, Vice President and General Manager,
Americas Solutions Business, HP Inc. “We look forward to achieving
additional success with ImageNet as we continue our quest to
reinvent the office with smart printing at the core.”
Leveraging HP’s A3 MFPs to Enable Standardized
SimplicityHP’s A3 portfolio transforms today’s copier
experience for ImageNet by offering advanced security features
unmatched in the marketplace and affordable color via HP’s PageWide
printing technology. With HP’s PageWide A3 technology, ImageNet has
lowered its parts and labor costs dramatically because of the
inherent simplicity of the print-engine design.
Longer Device Uptime via HP SDSSDS helps
ImageNet lower the cost of service, easily diagnose problems and
deliver proactive service with big data and predictive analytics
that ensure their customers’ fleets are optimized for their
evolving needs.
A key benchmark in ImageNet’s managed print services program is
first-call effectiveness—the ability to resolve a customer’s
problem without needing return visits. SDS makes that easier with
self-help tools such as wizards and web-based information access,
enabling ImageNet to take a proactive approach to service,
increasing overall customer satisfaction.
