Charities

Charities are under increasing pressure to reduce expenses and become more efficient in procurement. Donors have high expectations that charity expenditure should increasingly go toward their programs as opposed to administrative and fundraising costs.

Charities are accountable for their percentage spends on marketing, print and administration so managing print spends efficiently, can contribute to increasing donorships and fostering public confidence.

Print is a complex spend category for charities to manage because every job is unique, specifications vary, prices change and supplier performance is variable. Of the £94.5bn spent annually on print in Europe it is estimated that between 25% and 30% is wasted through manual ordering processes, poor procurement practices and process inefficiencies.

The cost savings and efficiencies delivered by Print Spend Management Software are driving adoption among many charities in the UK and Europe and aiding them in increasing their efficiency ratings.
