Managed Print Services Expert Ed Crowley of Photizo Group to Speak at Special Seminar on MPS in Louisville on September 29

LOUISVILLE, KY, September 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) Noted MPS Expert Ed Crowley will be the featured speaker at a special one-time only seminar on Managed Print Services to be held Wednesday, September 29, 2010, 10:30am to 1pm, at the Louisville Marriott Downtown, 280 West Jefferson, in Louisville. Crowley is the Founder and CEO of Photizo Group, a widely respected research and consulting firm focusing on the Managed Print Services market. The event is sponsored by OfficeWare and Hewlett Packard.

The seminar is geared for all area businesses that utilize 20 document output devices or more. As MPS agreements approach $30 billion in 2012 business executives will learn how to grasp this concept to reduce document related expenses without acquiring new equipment, gain more control over document production and costs, and provide a more efficient environment for employees.

The event begins with registration at 10:30am followed by Crowley's presentation which looks at current best practices and trends in Managed Print Services. It also includes lunch and a panel discussion of local area companies who have successfully utilized MPS to increase profitability.

"I am very pleased to support the HP/OfficeWare event in Louisville. By bringing real, credible data and insights regarding the benefits of MPS for business organizations, the Photizo Group provides corporate decision makers with the facts they need to move forward with their MPS programs," Crowley said. "As a Kentucky-based company, we are proud to have the opportunity to work with companies like OfficeWare to educate firms of all sizes on the benefits of a Managed Print Services program."
