White paper documents ROI on print buying method

Press release from the issuing company

Chambersburg, PA – A white paper that provides return-on-investment (ROI) performance outcomes for users of e-LYNXX Corporation's patented competitive procurement method for buying print has been published. It complements an earlier white paper that describes, in detail, the benefits of e-LYNXX's innovative approach to procuring direct mail, marketing materials, commercial print, CD ROMs or anything that requires the reproduction of an image on a substrate (paper, plastic, textiles, magnetic media, etc.).  The latest white paper, "Print Management Program Offers Compelling Return on Investment Without Up-front Investment or Risk," explains and illustrates that with the e-LYNXX procurement program impressive ROI will be achieved without any initial capital outlay or downside for the print buying client.

The program is based on two patents – one granted in 2002 and the other in 2008 and is recognized as a significant innovation for print buyers.  The e-LYNXX approach consistently reduces cost for procured print in the 25% to 50% range when compared to the results obtained from more traditional procurement methods such as negotiation, rate carding, reverse auctions and spot bidding. Savings for e-LYNXX clients occurs when the new method is deployed using best practices and delivered by e-LYNXX's proprietary web-based communications and workflow system -- one that streamlines the procurement process, strengthens controls and accountability, fully reports and documents every task and provides 100% transparency.

"CEO's and CFO's are impressed with our offering, its associated savings and the strong ROI," said Michael Jackson, chief operating officer of e-LYNXX Corporation and author of both white papers. "Since printing costs equate to 3% of a typical organization's gross revenues, reduction of those expenses by 25% to 50% is very attractive.  Add to that ROI of 270% to 282%, no up-front costs and no risk, and the use of our program represents quite a compelling value proposition."

While the annual print spend of the model presented in the white paper is for an organization with $100 million in printing expenses each year, the model is scalable.  e-LYNXX guarantees that its program will  reduce the procured cost of print by 25%.  Historically, however, the average experience of e-LYNXX clients has been to achieve a 42% cost reduction -- a $42 million savings for the $100 million print-spend organization.  The white paper explains how the 25% reduction translates into a 270% ROI and the 42% into a 282% ROI.

The e-LYNXX competitive pricing procurement program also can be applied to the purchase of machined parts, construction services, temporary staffing, textiles, creative services or anything that requires specifications when custom ordered.  Current e-LYNXX clients represent most business segments including the heavy equipment construction, building materials, parcel delivery, computer hardware, retail, grocery, health care, finance, resale distributor  and association sectors.
