OUR GOAL
OfficeTeam have been a single source supplier to 99p Stores for over two years. They have provided an improved level of supply efficiency to our organisation.
Many of the associated savings have come from the ability of OfficeTeam to deliver on demand direct to our network of 300 stores. This has considerably reduced our internal costs associated with stocking, distribution and transportation. This service has definitely provided an improved performance to our organisation.
We have also benefitted from an excellent Account Manager who has provided valuable support and advice in relation to product specification and availability, as well as alternative options. Finally the fact that OfficeTeam operate their own fleet of delivery vehicles and employed drivers gives them control, and has provided considerable peace of mind.
I would not hesitate to recommend OfficeTeam, especially if you are a multi-site business that requires visibility of activity, business control from the centre and a trouble-free nationwide distribution facility.
Head of IT/Systems, 99P Stores

CORPORATE IDENTITY
Brand guidelines are the corner stone of any print supply relationship. These are audited and discussed at the outset of any contract so that quality and control benchmarks can be set including the colours, materials, and logos that are used across a client’s range. They are also used to manage the requirements of end users so that we can police what or who is allowed particular products.
This is particularly important in large multi site operations where often the individual site managers want to manage the brand themselves. Through a single source agreement we can quickly identify any non-brand compliance, before ink is on paper, and bring it to the Brand Managers attention.
Colour machine proofs are created as a benchmark and all future jobs are measured for quality against these for the life of the contract. Our in-house studios are responsible for the management of all customer artwork meaning we can control the versions, quality and consistency centrally, while files are stored on our secure servers for easy file retrieval as required.
PrintTeam works with printers whose CMYK presswork is printed to ISO 12647-2; which ensures completely reliable colour reproduction. Presses automatically check for colour consistency sheet-to-sheet, so however long the print run, you can rest assured that the last sheet will have the same colour density and impact as the first.
In line with PrintTeam’s stipulations, all our Print Partners have the following accreditations: ISO 9001, 14001, 27001 and 12647.
We will assign unique product codes, version numbers and creation dates to all forms and stationery artwork. Where possible we would recommend this is discreetly added to each artwork providing you a ‘digital databank’ and PrintTeam easy product visibility at production stage.

WORKING WITH YOU
Quality Assurance Process
PrintTeam pride ourselves upon offering high quality products delivered on time, every time. We will monitor our performance against your KPIs daily, with a report detailing matters such as stock availability, delivery performance, first fill accuracy, pick error rate, keying error rate and query resolution.
In the unlikely event that a stakeholder is dissatisfied with the quality of a job including print finish or assembly (inserts, collation, etc) we will of course re-print the job at no cost and a Service Credit will be issued. As a Print Management company, we have access to a network of print partners and can ensure that state of the art tools and technology are used. All our partners have a strict SLA in place to share their plant machinery and are audited regularly to ensure consistently high quality.
To ensure quality of service, we are ISO 9001 accredited, and have an all-encompassing Quality Assurance manual covering all stages of our service. Each stage has to undergo a program of inspections and tests before we are satisfied.
We have a Quality Assurance process to verify and document that the performance of facility systems meet the required criteria at each stage. This verifies that the facility is efficient, works correctly and that the appropriate training programs are in place to ensure smooth operations throughout the contract term.
Please see the diagram below showing the full quality assurance process.

10 WAYS WE ADD VALUE
By managing all print work through our Claritum Estimating and Job Workflow system, we can ensure ongoing value for you. The system enables real-time quotations from our panel of print partners, making sure we select the right partner for the job. We will benchmark and receive the most competitive pricing for you from the marketplace. PrintTeam has contracts with all of our print suppliers which include material and labour rates, reviewed annually to further ensure competitiveness.
In addition to challenging our own supplier base to reduce cost, we can ensure price competitiveness through other means:
Re-engineering products to reduce product cost, for example, standardising print materials across marketing collateral.
Leveraging economies of scale by bulk printing where possible, reducing unit cost.
Harnessing our own logistics infrastructure to eradicate delivery costs.
Optimising stock levels to reduce obsolescence with our intelligent inventory system – S099.
Use of different substrates to reduce cost of goods.
Reducing administration time, dealing with one supplier rather than multiple printers and couriers.

PRINT STOCK MANAGEMENT
Through effective stock management we can reduce your costs significantly, by forecasting demand whilst minimising waste and obsolescence.
We will work proactively with you to identify 3 to 6 months’ usage on each product. We will print, store and stock-manage your products, free of any storage charges, and deliver to all your locations in the UK within 24 hours. Each order is delivered on our own fleet of vehicles thereby not incurring any further distribution charges to you.
We run daily re-order reports and when a stock item reaches its’ pre-agreed re-order level, we review the usage on the product and ensure the most cost effective amounts are replenished. We would normally print 3 months’ unpaid stock or up to 6 months’ usage for paid stock.
Weekly stock reports are emailed out to the customer detailing all stock lines, the current stock levels, the last 6 months’ usage, the value of slow moving stock and any items requiring stock replenishment.

Poundstretcher are a UK major High Street retailer with over 400 locations and a central warehousing operation in Yorkshire. They needed a supplier that would be able to work alongside their Marketing Team providing them with excellent onsite account management to reduce the workload of the Marketing Manager.
Prior to OfficeTeam’s involvement the 409 stores had to email order requests through to the marketing manager. Stock was held in three different locations and from three different providers. The ordering process was complicated; deliveries were ad hoc and resulted in multiple invoices.
An online solution with stock being consolidated and managed was a key driver. In addition Poundstretcher wanted to reduce the total cost of print procurement and distribution costs of marketing collateral.

• Reduced Costs through PrintTeam’s multi-vendor supplier database
