The Challenge

The Operational Challenge

Bonus Pastor Catholic College needed to ensure their administrative and academic support systems were both reliable and cost-efficient. The primary bottleneck was a fragmented fleet of A4 and A3 laser printers, which were driving up maintenance costs and creating administrative overhead.

The team needed a solution that would provide enterprise-grade reliability without the high support burden of a mixed-vendor fleet.

Fragmented Fleet

Mixed A4/A3 laser printers from Dell, Oki, and Xerox creating inconsistent performance.

High Maintenance

Escalating maintenance costs and growing administrative overhead burden.

Reactive Support

Lack of visibility into printer health led to constant firefighting instead of planning.

Our Approach

The Contrac Approach

Contrac applied a Consult-Transform-Support methodology to replace the legacy hardware.

01

Consult

We audited the print usage across the entire college to identify where maintenance spend was highest.

02

Transform

We consolidated the mixed fleet of Dell, Oki, and Xerox printers into a unified suite of Epson WorkForce Pro RIPS (Replaceable Ink Pack System) machines. This provided consistent performance across all departments.

03

Support

We implemented Epson Device Admin software, giving the IT team real-time visibility into printer health and supply levels, shifting the IT team from reactive maintenance to proactive management.
