KNOW WHAT YOU’RE LOOKING FOR?

HOW WILL FRAMEWORKS HELP?

THANKS FOR CHOOSING KCS AS YOUR TRUSTED PARTNER

KCS, a Public Sector Buying Organisation (PSBO), have put in place a range of Public Sector frameworks. They cover a range of products, services and suppliers and enable buyers to procure compliantly. Frameworks give you the benefit of set terms, pricing and quality.

We’ll help you by doing all the background work and cover any arduous technical details, such as tender processes and quotations, leaving you to focus on the important decisions. We’ll also guide you through the purchase and set up.

Managed Print Services: Working the way that’s best for you

Although every educational establishment is different, our print services experts know that everyone can work more effectively if they have quick and easy access to the equipment that best fulfils their printing, scanning, copying and document management needs, and when the user experience is a positive one.

With Sharp’s Managed Print Services, as well as analysing how much you’re spending on print, we’ll look much deeper into how you actually work with documents. We’ll determine whether there any Multi-Functional Printers that are either underused (and therefore unnecessary) or over-used (which reduces reliability). We’ll advise you if they are fit for purpose. And we’ll discover who is using your printers, for what purpose, and how much waste there is.

At one level, they bring immediate cost savings of up to 30%*. But that’s just the start. Our Managed Print Services go beyond simple cost models to bring new efficiencies to every task from the second you click on ‘print’, ‘scan’ or ‘copy’, to the moment you collect, distribute or store the finished document.

Going Green: Are your Classrooms still using Projectors?

Some of the most common classroom projectors use around 60% more electricity when benchmarked against Sharp’s 70” BIG PAD*.

With significantly reduced operating costs avoiding the need to purchase (and responsibly dispose of) mercury-filled replacement lamps, and a lower carbon footprint, the environmental benefits of Sharp’s BIG PAD become clear.

Sharp is committed to making your school a greener place. As such we are offering to remove and responsibly dispose of your existing projector/interactive board completely free of charge when your school switches to BIG PAD as part of a wider solution.

Sharp’s new range of MFPs takes care of security so you can focus on education

MFPs and printers remain a vital part of most organisations’ document creation, workflows and processes, meaning they represent a potential weak spot in information and network security. These vulnerabilities are often overlooked, but tighter data regulations and increasingly sophisticated threats need to drive behaviour change.

Sharp is helping to make security easier with its updated range of A3 and A4 MFPs, featuring enhanced security features that organisations of all types and sizes can trust.

When information is exchanged between an MFP and another application or email system it can be intercepted or compromised. These MFPs include SSL Certificate Validation, which checks all incoming and outgoing communication attempts to prevent any unauthorised or malicious access to your information. This high level of security is often a requirement of government organisations.

Information is the life-blood of any organisation. That’s why, with our latest devices, the most stringent protection is included as standard.

Walk in, plug in, work together: Discover our Windows collaboration display

Windows collaboration display from Sharp is a new type of interactive display for meetings and teamwork. Complying with Microsoft specifications, the Display combines Sharp’s award-winning touch technology with IoT sensors that monitor conditions like temperature and air quality.

The 70” Windows collaboration display built by Sharp is crucially easy to use and easy to connect to – you simply walk in, plug in and work together – but it also monitors your environment and will help to make those conditions optimal.

It’s the next evolution of the interactive display, the first to be smart-building ready and the first that explores the potential of IoT to make our meeting rooms more productive.

Integrating other technologies, including personal and school devices, with interactive displays can help to improve pupil’s digital competencies, motivation and engagement. Connecting devices such as PCs, laptops, tablets or smartphones to displays via WiFi offers new possibilities in terms of ways of working as part of a wider solution.
