Tech Data launches next release of OpenMPS managed print service

Tech Data has launched an enhanced version of its OpenMPS managed print service, providing partners with improvements in date visualisation, more control of end-customer pricing, and additional safeguards against fraud

New smart dashboarding has been added providing partners with a graphic representation of all their OpenMPS customers. Improved capability to set end-customer pricing allows partners to define a price for each customer or order, and to build a complete customer report, showing full details of all cartridges shipped.

Enhanced data checking ensures all essential information is provided, such as the customers delivery address, helping to maximise service levels and reduce any risk of fraud. Partners can now receive auto-alerts when orders are placed, and faster search capabilities help to streamline processes. All the improvements are available to all Open MPS partners immediately.

Chris Bates, business unit manager, print and supplies at Tech Data, UK and Ireland, said: “OpenMPS has been extremely well received and many partners are already using it to provide a simple managed print services to their customers. Based on their feedback, we have made a number of enhancements and improvements that increase efficiency and help them deliver an even better service and more value to their end-user customers.”
