NewField IT helps organizations understand the true cost of printing in their organisation. There are many myths in this area from the average toner coverage per page
to the cost of output from laser printers versus multi-functional products (MFP).
The first stage of offering any print solution is an accurate analysis to establish the business case. Using our own unique asset-tracking and management software, Asset DB, NewField IT
offers a comprehensive and fully customisable discovery service. This multi-part audit includes both a physical and electronic assessment of your document output costs and the
devices associated with them.
The advantages in speed, accuracy and quality provided by Asset DB are matched by extensive experience: NewField IT has audited over 20,000 print assets across Europe and North America.
In gaining an accurate picture of the true cost of ownership involved in office printing, NewField IT have developed thorough, specialised methodologies to ensure a consistent and scalable approach.
We believe that analysing costs without knowing where the devices are located as well as user activity within a specific area results in a print strategy that does not reflect the reality
of the user situation. Because print reviews are as much a change management programme as a technology one, taking account of the user situation is essential.
Within the scope of our print assessments, NewField IT offer the following components:
 Physical Audit. NewField IT has developed its own unique and innovative software product - Asset DB - for
the rapid physical auditing of client assets. Click here to find out more about Asset DB.
Electronic Audit. This supplements the physical audit, using specialised software to determine detailed
information on device usage. Depending on requirements this can be extended to look at print activity by user.
Forensic Analysis. NewField IT will analyse you print procurement process, existing contracts, purchase
orders, and expenditure to determine what is the true extent of your current costs.
User Interviews. NewField IT will conduct user interviews with key users identified by the business or the Electronic Audit
to determine any special requirements not captured by the above processes. A combination of both face-to-face and web based questionnaires are used to get the most effective coverage and the
appropriate level of detail.
IT Review. NewField IT will meet with representatives of the IT department to document the current IT
infrastructure and get a full understanding of the IT strategy. Future projects are noted and reviewed for their potential impact on the print architecture.
Working with Newfield IT will enable your organisation to create detailed reports of current inventories, utilisation and the true cost of ownership, with assets mapped onto clear
graphic representations of the office environment. This provides a solid business case for deciding a new Print Strategy and any cost savings that can be delivered.
