The Print Management Service helps districts save both time and money by managing and streamlining the printing process for districts. Our staff will obtain printing quotes for your publication jobs and act as the liaison between district staff and print shops. We pride ourselves on fast, personalized service. Given the volume of printing we purchase on behalf of districts, we have established solid, ongoing relationships with many commercial and BOCES printers that result in high-quality service. Should a printing job ever fall short of your expectations, let our seasoned staff work to resolve the situation to your satisfaction.

The Capital Region BOCES’ bid process helps school districts get the most competitive prices for printing. We solicit quotes from commercial printers, as well as from several BOCES print shops. If a print job is sent to a BOCES print shop, a portion of the printing cost is eligible for state aid. All printing jobs are shipped directly to districts from the print shop. Each year, we will provide you with a “Report of Total Jobs Printed,” showing the breakdown of quantity, prices and total costs, to help you manage your printing budget.

We can also design and lay out both print and electronic forms, as requested, and archive them in our office for easy, future updates. We have a staff of four graphic designers for any design need. Worried about back-to-school publications and print jobs? Provide us with a list of what you need printed and any samples you may have of similar jobs printed previously, and we will coordinate printing and delivery before the opening of the new school year.

2012-13 Pricing: Based on actual printing costs plus an 18% coordination fee
