Bryn Mawr, PA -  Strategy Development has worked with a leading software developer to translate their knowledge and insight of proper pricing of managed print services (MPS) engagements into a comprehensive Excel-based pricing tool: ClearView.  ClearView is user-friendly and easily blends expenditures for mixed fleets, related consumables, and services into a single cost-per-page (CPP).   The blended CPP can enable a customer to reduce costs and/or allow print providers to improve margins.  

ClearView turns data into intelligence in order to calculate a current CPP, as well as what a blended CPP would be in a variety of potential scenarios.  The tool enables comparisons of MPS transactions from simple outsourcing, to redeployment, consolidation or refresh of devices, as well as comparing total cost of ownership to the prospect's/customer's current cost.  Additionally, ClearView provides the ability to contrast costs from period to period to assist in conducting quarterly account reviews, a process developed by Strategy Development for the MPS space.
 
ClearView is being made available to Strategy Development's consulting clients and participants in the BTA MPS Workshops, which were developed and are instructed by Strategy Development consultants.  If you are current consulting customer or have attended a BTA MPS Sales or BTA Operations & Service training workshop in the past twelve months, click here to register for the training webinar which will take place on Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 11am EST/8 PST.
