Case Study: Large Medical Device Company Achieves Print Cost Savings with RR Donnelley

Assessment of Print Management Reveals Ample Cost Saving Opportunities

Large Medical Device Company partnered with RR Donnelley to assess its print management as it transitioned to a newly architected target operating model. The company needed help updating print-related communications platforms, workflows, tools, and supplier management, plus guidance on change management and a transition roadmap.

RR Donnelley recommended a centralized print management approach with new ordering technology, improved direct mail workflows, a standardized production model for purchase-order print projects, and flexible outsourced creative staffing. RRD also introduced a tailored support model and implementation plan, with projected savings including 30% annual cost avoidance from a new EOQ model, 14-27% lower pricing on sample items, and 10-38% savings on print-on-demand items.
