Anyone who attended June's In-Plant Printing and Mailing Association (IPMA) conference in Albuquerque enjoyed a great time, with excellent sessions and lots of camaraderie with other managers. A new video, produced by IPG Editor Bob Neubauer, will let you glimpse of some of the action.
In his new blog, Ray Chambers, of Chambers Management Group, notes that a lot of organizations are focusing on right-sizing their copier/MFD fleets. They are turning to equipment vendors who offer"managed print services" and promise savings of 30 percent by reducing the number of printers, copiers and fax machines they have and purchasing competitively.
Yesterday, IPG Editor Bob Neubauer traveled to Pemberton, N.J., to visit the in-plant at Burlington County College. In March, the six-employee in-plant added a new four-color Ryobi 524GE offset press. Though the shop already had a pair of two-color presses and used them to produce lots of four-color work, Manager Steve Amitrano had wanted a four-color press for a long time.
Andy Paparozzi, NAPL's Chief Economist, and Consultant Steven Schnoll will set the stage at the Executive Outlook Conference, which will precede Graph Expo, in Chicago. Taking place on Saturday, October 2, the conference will focus on "The Challenge of Change in the New Era of Print."
New legislation passed in May by the Illinois General Assembly will result in greater work rule flexibility and lower costs at McCormick Place for vendors exhibiting at Graph Expo 2010. Additional changes, including reductions in utilities, related services, and in food and beverage pricing, will also positively affect attendees. This year's show takes place Oct. 3-6 at McCormick Place in Chicago.
