What RICOH can do for you

RICOH helps organisations to increase the effi ciency and effectiveness of their document infrastructure, information processes and workfl ows. Through our proven, award-winning hardware, integrated ser-vice lines and adaptive service delivery, we provide a one-stop source of business solutions. We can drive improvement across the full scope of your opera-tions, helping reduce costs, increase fl exibility and enhance productivity.

The way we work is changing. Entire industries are being transformed as a result of new ways of creating, managing and sharing information, communicating with customers and suppliers and bringing products and services to the mar-ket. Organisations that harness the potential of new technologies and processes are able to en-hance the productivity, efficiency and compet-itiveness of their offering. But new technology also comes with challenges.

Research conducted on behalf of RICOH has found that 63 percent of Europe’s business leaders are not ready for digital transforma-tion*, which is limiting their ability to seize the opportunities that are now available. The challenge of managing the transition to new-er, digital-based ways of working is one that is being felt across a range of different sectors, from finance and healthcare to education and the public sector.

Preparing for a new world of work

For nearly 80 years, RICOH has provided inno-vative document and imaging solutions for of-fice, commercial and production printing envi-ronments. During that time, we’ve extended beyond printers and MFPs, building upon our proven product offering with a framework of integrated services. Today, our focus is helping organisations like yours take advantage of the potential for new ways of working to truly en-hance your operations.

We can help you make your workflows more efficient and more productive than ever – espe-cially when you’re managing information – and help you stay one step ahead of your compe-tition. Whichever industry you operate in and whatever the size of your organisation, we can help you move your operations forward.

RICOH helped Arla Foods streamline and improve the performance of its production print facilities in its manu-facturing and distribution environment. High speed pro-duction printers were deployed to print dispatch notes directly from mainframe computer systems, ensuring 100 percent accuracy even in the longest print runs. Print turnaround times have been reduced, enabling Arla to respond more quickly to customer orders and handle large peaks in demand.
