Value for Money - an embedded culture

We continually challenge our working practices and introduce new ways of getting the job done. For instance, this year all our desktop printers were removed from our headquarters at Cardinal Square. The photocopiers now do our printing. A change like this takes some getting used to but it demonstrates our approach to value for money because:

• we don’t need to stock lots of different ink and toner cartridges any more
• we order less and process fewer invoices
• our costs per printed page are lower
• we don’t need to pay someone to maintain the printers
• we don’t have to find the money to replace worn out printers

In addition, the savings we make are not just financial. We are also able to reduce our carbon emissions because we use less power and consumables.
