Some Schools Prefer to Purchase Their Equipment
In these instances it is especially important to work with a partner who is capable and willing to service the equipment for longevity, in order to maximize customer value and reduce the environmental impact of replacing equipment prematurely.
Most Schools Prefer to Lease & Renew with Significant Savings
And with excellent service throughout the contract, many customers renew and get many more years out of their equipment (not to mention very significant savings on subsequent renewal years). Many colleges are also opting for applications like PaperCut to further reduce their printing costs and reduce their environmental footprint.
Others Source Through the OECM
Instead of going through the lengthy RFP process, a recent customer saved themselves a lot of time, trouble and hassle by opting for the OECM’s “Quick Quote” process. 4 Office is currently the only independent reseller recognized by the OECM for both A3 (11×17) and A4 (8 ½ x 14) capable multifunctional copiers.
