30 OPEN MARKET
Orders not issued as stated in this catalog will be Open Market and as such, this contract number may not be used. No deviations from terms and conditions specified in this schedule are authorized.
31 METER READINGS - DATA COLLECTION AGENT SOFTWARE
The remote data collection process is recommended as the most efficient method of collecting data from covered devices as this provides for highly secure, accurate remote collection of the meter reads for all covered devices being utilized on the network. A requirement of this functionality is that all devices are on the network and available to the DCA (Data Collection Agent). The software is secure and offers NO threat to network security. It operates through outbound communication only and communicates to the printing devices through SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).
Installing the DCA is coordinated through the key operator POC and requires minimal effort.
32 METER READINGS - MANUAL PROCESS
The Manual process provides for meter readings at sites where security prohibits the use of software monitoring. This process does not offer the most optimal method for servicing devices but can be set up in select environments. ABM’s Manual process requires the coordination with agency representatives to gather the device configuration page data and submit monthly. In the event a meter reading is not provided on a timely basis, ABM may estimate the meter.

ABM Federal Sales Inc.
ABM Federal Managed Print Solutions
Scope and Description of Services
• Purpose - ABM Federal offers our ABM Federal – Managed Print Solutions program under SIN 541611MPS. As a solution provider, ABM’s, Managed Print Services Offering combines Best in Class elements from our strategic go to market alliances. The primary alliance partners are Supplies Network, our sister company, utilizing their Carbon Six program and multiple OEM’s including Hewlett-Packard, Lexmark, Dell and others. These exclusive partner agreements enable ABM to blend fleet and workflow efficiencies to assist our customers in achieving their overall print output objectives.
• Goal - The primary goal of the ABM Federal-Managed Print Services (MPS) Program is helping our customers gain control of their office printing costs and provide measurable economies. The following process improvements facilitate achievement of this primary goal.
• Cost Containment - Studies predict that office print usage will grow by 5.5% this year. The alarming number behind this statistic is that color printing is forecast to grow at 18.5%. Color prints cost 5-10 times that of black and white. The ABM Federal Program provides predictable costs through scheduled monthly billing, pay only what you print, reduced redundant acquisition costs, decreased miscellaneous supply purchases, reduced inventory storage requirements, etc.
• Management Control – The ABM Federal Program provides visibility across a print infrastructure to understand who, what, and where documents are printed and by what devices. Having actionable data enables customers to make informed decisions about reducing overall costs in their printing environments. This visibility across mixed fleets combined with the ability to analyze user data provides the level of granularity essential to implementing comprehensive printing strategies that improve workflows and reduce overall costs.
o One process improvement example being: Develop and implement a universal printing policy that includes forced duplexing, redirected print, selectable print to least expensive devices, etc. Implementing just one of these policies across a print infrastructure has proven to provide substantial savings.
• Standardization – ABM Federal has a system to ensure continuous productivity. Very few things inhibit office productivity more than a printer that is out of service. Many of the companies we serve initially had many different brands and models of printers. That meant that it was nearly impossible to stock all of the required toner, manage all of the print drivers and coordinate service with multiple vendors. ABM Federal consultants provide expertise in optimizing print infrastructures through development of printer standards, recommendations for device placements, user productivity, energy reduction, universal print policy guidance, etc.
The ABM Federal Business Unit delivers both the 541611MPS Managed Print Services and Needs Assessment and Analysis Services. ABM Federal has built on its knowledge and expertise in supply and distribution management, asset management, fleet configuration design and exceptional customer services capabilities to offer a comprehensive Managed Print Services Program.

Under a SOW (statement of work) level of effort based pricing model, ABM incorporates its CPI pricing with devices included or not and develops implementation schedules based upon objectives defined in a SOW. We recognize that most organizations are at various stages of evaluating their Printing/Imaging Infrastructures and may need to balance budgets and objectives to achieve their cost savings, environmental initiatives and workflow efficiencies. ABM Federal’s Program spans the spectrum from a basic entry level Print Management System with turn-key toner replenishment to a fully Managed Output Service incorporating workflow efficiencies, device optimization, and flexible financing to gain complete control of print output costs across an enterprise.
Needs Assessment & Analysis
Our Assessment methodology is aimed at establishing specific achievement objectives based upon Agency initiatives and goals. The most critical step towards optimizing a fleet and increasing worker productivity understands the current state of the print output environment. Once a baseline is established a print output strategy can be developed that includes Device and Workflow optimizations. ABM’s Standard Scope Assessment begins with discovering the Fleet and providing that visibility into the current state. ABM provides Needs Assessment and Analysis services to help Federal Agencies formulate document output strategies for future implementation.
ABM’s Assessment Components included in Standard Scope of Work - Fleet Discovery at the per device pricing model.
• Scope Meeting - Establish Customer objectives – Centralized Device Management, Fleet Optimization, etc.
• Fleet Discovery – Data collection utilizing remote software and manual USB tools.
• Site Surveys – Record device placements, space requirements, device health
• Data Analysis – Document current state environment
• Present Findings - Provide documentation for current state environment, make recommendations for future state improvements based upon customer objectives established in Scope meeting.
ABM offers this service as a Per Device Pricing Model for the Standard Scope of Fleet Discovery. (MPS Specialist performs the work, hourly rate does not apply. Per device model includes MPS Specialist resource).
ABM offers Extended Scope Services and pricing for Future State Design, Workflow Analysis, TCO Analysis, Secure Printing Solution Design, Carbon Footprints Reduction Strategies, etc. These are priced and offered under a SOW identifying resources and level of effort and billed at the applicable hourly rate.
Travel expenses are not included in the hourly rates.
ABM Federal is a comprehensive Managed Print Services program that empowers our customers with the ability to gain control of office printing costs across multi-vendor environments while maintaining maximum uptime efficiencies, high print quality, and optimal workflows. Our methodology emerges from a device (printer, copier, and scanner) independent view. Today’s exceptional device technology facilitates the ability to look beyond the device to the printing/imaging system as a whole and optimize the complete system. This printing system is comprised of the device, the user and the document and the ABM Federal program incorporates optimization throughout this print system.
As a Solution Provider, we can offer multi-vendor options that merge Best in Class hardware and software capabilities to meet the distinct missions and objectives of our Federal Agency Customers. Our OEM Elite status partnerships with HP, Lexmark, Dell, Canon, Xerox, and others enable ABM to optimize, manage, and improve on a broad range of printing environments. The backbone of ABM’s ABM Federal offering currently has over 75,000 devices under management providing auto-toner replenishment and break fix services to the commercial marketplace. Beginning with the assessment process the print output objectives and fleet specific needs are established to create a baseline for print optimization. This process is a continuum with ongoing planned improvements included in an overall print strategy.

A. Assessment
A thorough assessment provides a critical baseline for measuring program success. Our Assessment methodology is aimed at establishing specific achievement objectives based upon Agency initiatives and goals. This component drives the entire implementation process and is vitally important to our ABM Federal Program.
The Assessment process combines fleet assessment with needs analysis. The data collection process utilizes a variety of methods, including; remote data collection, user interviews, site surveys, device mapping, and utilization of industry standard benchmarks to gain an understanding of the customer’s current state environment. This data can then be utilized to provide future state recommendations and develop print output optimization blueprints.
Resources – MPS Specialists are responsible for the operational performance and delivery of the assessment process. They are the primary interface with the agency to coordinate all data collection activities, user interviews, and site surveys. MPS Subject Matter Expert (SME) ensures the project team’s timely and satisfactory delivery of the assessment with all of the deliverables.
