Collate has always been a service lead company and over the past five years, have recognised a distinct shift in customer printing expectations and requirements. Market trends show it is no longer about simply printing and storing documents, it is about giving users the ability to solve their own business problems and create better and more efficient processes within the organisation.

One way businesses are adopting this approach is by implementing an enterprise content management system within their organisation. ECM as it is known is not just for large enterprises. Many small and midsized businesses are recognising the benefits of document solutions, tailored to their company’s size and requirements. You can read more about these benefits here.
