Apogee Corporation Secures Turnkey European Partnership Agreement

This pan-European deal, which sees the formation of a new partnership between Apogee Corporation and one of the leading names in global IT solutions, was launched with an initial contract worth an estimated £10-15 million pounds.

Apogee, in addition to providing Managed Print Solutions at the document hardware and software level is also supplying solutions at the server room level, bringing to a new pan-European audience a proven wealth of experience that drives core print infrastructure.

The partnership has already delivered impressive successes having implemented full managed print solutions across more than 200 output devices throughout Switzerland and 2,000 devices throughout the UK.   A full implementation plan is currently in development to deploy in excess of 2,500 devices with associated strategy across Germany.  The remainder of mainland Europe will follow suit over the coming months, with regional European placements across approximately 500 devices in each location.

Apogee has long been established as a leader in the Managed Print arena, having implemented Managed Print Solutions to a diverse range and scale of industries up to and including large nationals.  This new partnership presents an exciting opportunity to bring together hardware and software from industry leading manufacturers with Apogee’s unique approach to total document solutions, to deliver real value throughout Europe.

The implementation is being entirely managed through Apogee’s established Project Management Team, working with various partners throughout Europe.

Apogee believes that through this contract, it has formed a key partnership that will almost certainly evolve beyond the initial deal.  The opportunity to provide complete print solutions, including server room technologies from a global leader, further strengthens Apogee’s already substantial portfolio and presents a real arsenal for progressive solution development.

EMEA (Europe, Middle-East & Africa) represents the fastest growing region for Managed Print Solutions with industry commentators predicting double-digit growth for the foreseeable future. This partnership will serve to establish Apogee as a key name in MPS across Europe.

Apogee has continued to demonstrate solid growth both organically and through the successful acquisition of 16 businesses over the last 7 years. Despite the global economic challenges faced in recent times, Apogee is one of the few organisations in the Managed Print industry that continues to evolve and develop which has been recognized by its inclusion on the Sunday Times Fast Track 100; a list that celebrates fast growing organisations throughout the UK.
