Many account managers spend too much time preparing for meetings. They gather data. They analyse volumes. They check alerts. They try to understand cost development. By the time they sit down with the customer, they are tired of the numbers. The problem is not a lack of data. The problem is that insight is not prepared. When preparation becomes the bottleneck In many MPS organisations, preparing for a customer meeting means pulling information from different places. Meter rea

Most print environments do not break overnight. They slowly drift out of balance. Volumes change. Usage patterns shift. Devices behave differently over time. The problem is rarely lack of data. It is lack of clarity. Many MPS teams have access to plenty of information, but when insight is scattered across tools and roles, decisions become reactive instead of proactive. That is where frustration starts, both internally and with customers. Advisory starts with a shared overvie

Supply management is one of the most underestimated parts of Managed Print Services. When it works, nobody notices. When it fails, everyone feels it. Late deliveries, emergency orders, frustrated customers, and internal firefighting are often treated as isolated incidents. In reality, they are symptoms of a bigger issue. Missing insight. Why supply problems keep repeating Many supply workflows are still built on assumptions. Average consumption. Static reorder points. Manual

How 3manager and Nucleus Service Create a Connected MPS Workflow Managed Print businesses today are better at collecting print data than ever before. Devices report usage. Supplies are monitored. Alerts are triggered automatically. With 3manager, dealers already have a strong foundation for managing fleets, understanding consumption, and spotting issues early. Yet many businesses still experience friction in daily operations. Not because the print insight is missing. But beca

In Managed Print, most organisations already have access to a lot of data. Counters, alerts, service logs, and reports are not hard to find. What is harder is turning all of that data into something people can actually use. That is where the real value starts. Why clarity saves time Clarity is not about seeing everything. It is about seeing what matters, quickly. When account managers and service teams can build an overview in minutes instead of hours, the day changes. Prepar

The beginning of a new year often comes with fresh plans, new targets, and long to do lists. But in Managed Print, progress rarely comes from doing more. It comes from seeing more clearly. Why clarity matters more than activity Most print environments are busy. Devices generate alerts. Service teams respond. Supplies are ordered. Reports are produced. Yet many organisations still feel one step behind. The reason is rarely a lack of effort. It is a lack of shared understanding

As 2025 comes to an end, it is a good moment to pause and reflect. Not just on what was built or shipped, but on how Managed Print continues to evolve and what customers truly value when complexity increases. One thing became very clear this year. More data does not automatically lead to better decisions. From information to understanding Across many conversations with partners and customers in 2025, the same theme kept appearing. Most print environments already generate a lo

As the year comes to a close, many teams pause and look back. Not just at the results, but at how decisions were made along the way. In Managed Print, the challenge is rarely a lack of data. Most organisations already have access to counters, alerts, and reports. The real challenge is turning all of that into shared understanding. When insight arrives too late Year end often reveals patterns that stayed hidden for months. Unexpected cost increases. Devices that quietly underp

In Managed Print Services, hard work has never been the problem. Print teams work fast, react quickly, and solve issues every day. Yet many organisations still struggle with rising costs, frustrated customers, and missed opportunities. The difference is not effort. The difference is insight. When insight is missing, even the best teams end up firefighting. Hard work without clarity creates noise Most print environments generate a lot of data. Counters, alerts, supply levels,

Keeping customers loyal in Managed Print is not about promising lower prices. It is about proving value long before the renewal comes up. In a market where fleets are shrinking and margins are tight, the strongest advantage a dealer can have is simple. Better insight than the competition. When you understand how a customer prints, where costs rise, and what issues are about to appear, you move from reacting to problems to guiding the customer with confidence. That shift is th
