The Government Printing Office (GPO) outsources printing work to the private sector on behalf of federal agencies. Under its regulations, GPO does not allow brokers to bid on its printed work. Therefore, manufacturers of forms in need of diversifying their accounts and gaining more volume should consider this market. "In 2005, printers competing for work that included specialty business forms, snap sets, continuous forms, or cut sheets picked up awards totaling more than $40 million," according to Deborah A. Snider, Division President of Government Printing Sales, a 30 year old company that specializes in assisting printers gain volume from the Federal and State markets. "These orders varied in size, so any forms manufacturer should be able to find a niche in this market, maximize equipment capacity and increase profitability." Snider says that forms jobs from the GPO should be looked at by a manufacturer as a supplement to its commercial volume and obtained at a price that provides needed contribution dollars to its bottom line. Pricing is competitive due to the open bidding system used by GPO, but Government Printing Sales will assist in making decisions on pricing that will yield maximum contribution dollars "Government Printing Sales has records of all past purchases by GPO, so we can swiftly produce results by targeting the price that will be competitive," Snider says.
