Our succes story: TA & Brandt - TA Triumph-Adler - OES Baltia

Five years ago contracts we had with our previous document management provider expired. We called for bids from vendors and ultimately came to the conclusion that TA Triumph-Adler was the only provider to meet the mark. Our strategy was to achieve the greatest possible standardisation of hardware and software in order to keep maintenance work to a minimum. Alongside quantitative performance capability, print quality was also a key criterion behind me making the decision I made: The employees in the marketing department need to be able to rely on colourfast proofs for layout designs.

The Total Output Management (TOM) concept developed by TA Triumph-Adler met all of the criteria. It was important for us that the system landscape could be modified at any time – whether we needed to extend it or reduce it. The standardised range of systems now includes, among others, 68 DIN A4 printers and roughly 50 multifunctional printers from TA Triumph-Adler. Paper is also included, reducing the workload of our purchasing department. In terms of materials procurement, the TOM concept offers us more cost-effective conditions than the ones we were able to negotiate with suppliers. The systems were swapped out quickly: The same hardware was installed at all of the sites in under four weeks.

The TOM concept allows us to work far more efficiently and achieve a monthly cost savings of around 37 per cent. 118 systems now manage the annual print volume of 2,350,000 pages. The TA Triumph-Adler solution generates clearly structured information and delivers the desired level of transparency thanks to the Accounting Box. Back then, we had to thoroughly, manually recalculate things – but now we can review all of the costs at a glance. The concept worked in practice exactly like I expected it would, based on the presentation.
