Save worry. Save time. Save money. Contact us today about our complimentary technology assessment!
At Solutions Management Group (SMG), we use our technology assessment to evaluate your company’s hardware and software as well as look at your current processes. Do you have paper stacking up on desks? How does a purchase order make its way through the building? What does your accounts payable workflow look like? Has managed print and/or rules-based printing been implemented? SMG can help you discover the best practices to approach your printing and workflow problems.
Our goals for your business are improved efficiency and cost control, and an eventual conversion from cumbersome paper processes to a refined digital workflow. When you choose SMG technology and IT solutions, you’ll typically see a 20% reduction in routine operating and capital expenses. Our vendors include Ricoh, Xerox, DocuWare, Print Audit, and Rouse Consulting Group.
You provide the data, we’ll analyze the total cost of ownership. Once we know how much you’re spending and how you’re spending it, we’ll make recommendations, and develop a more cost-effective solution for your business.
Our technology assessment is free of charge -- the only investment is your time. Here are the steps in our assessment:

The audio and video technology in the classroom or conference room can make a big difference with how content is delivered and received. Many times, classrooms and conference rooms are updated as part of construction and are forgotten. SMG has skilled and certified team members to program, install, and train your staff with industry leading equipment. By placing your Audio and Video on a planned life cycle you will always insure an easy to use, state of the art facility.
Technology Life Cycle Management takes significant project management. Communicating with departments, users, vendors, and installs makes this process time consuming and difficult. However, keeping new technology with modern operating systems is essential to a well-managed fleet. Problem frequencies per asset are significantly lower when all your hardware and software are less than five years old. SMG’s team has created a proven 18 step process for a quality installation. This process ensures that users are involved in the software included on the asset and aware of when their assets will be installed. We image, asset tag, and install every new machine, remove the old, and provide face to face training for each user.
