Access to best market prices from an accredited supply chain could save you up to 35% on your print spend.
All this is at your fingertips with Communisis IQ.
Communisis IQ is an instant online procurement tool powered by our CIPS accredited 5-step model, ensuring a quality controlled and sustainable supply chain.
IQ is an online portal which allows users to select from a pre-defined print specification, or input their own – and provides prices from hundreds of printers within minutes. This is proven to save upto 35% on print procurement due to accessing best market prices.
Not only does this save valuable time when getting your message to market. It also gives you the confidence that the supply base is pre-approved to Communisis’, or your own, exacting standards.
Unlike some print pricing tools, IQ is a procurement system, so you are able to purchase print at the click of a mouse – the details of which are captured giving you clarity of your company’s procurement, and helping to identify repetition and monitor departmental spend.
IQ isn’t an off the shelf product, and we’re able to make it bespoke for each customer. This means we can control or set pre-defined criteria, giving you more options for print formats and substrates for example, or tighter control and restrictions where necessary.
But price isn’t the only factor in your relationship with suppliers. Quality and timing are key too, and our supply chain management ensures all printers meet minimum requirements on each. IQ also includes a rating system, so you can see how other customers have fared with each supplier – plus alerting us of any unacceptable drop in standards.
