Shepherds Bush Housing Group

The Customer

SBHG is a family of successful businesses providing housing, regeneration and community support services. They own and manage 5,000 properties across 11 London boroughs.

The Challenge

Eliminate disparate print, copy, scan and fax hardware; insource production of internal materials and external collateral; and remove the need to send files between sites via couriers.

The Solution

Multifunctional devices to provide centralised departmental services; finishing capabilities to allow inhouse production; and document management to allow electronic file dissemination.

The Result

Saving of £10,000 on reprographics charges and £90,000 pa saved on courier costs. Elimination of external printer costs, better internal materials produced themselves, space freed up internally, and reduced per employee carbon footprint.

Monthly recurring cost savings, high quality user materials and reduction in paper consumption delivered through new Reprographics solution.

Charterhouse provided Shepherds Bush Housing Group with Sharp MX range multifunctional devices, production and finishing capabilities and Infonic Document Manager.

“I’ve been delighted to work with Charterhouse on the reprographics project and we’re still working with them going forward. The line between public and private sector is getting more blurred, so now it’s just about good or bad service providers. We need to be good. CVD is helping us to do that by enabling us to change the way we work. In addition, we’re being kinder to the environment – which our staff loves – and that’s good for us all. We now use less power, less paper and travel less.”
- David Blackburn, Group Director HR & Business Support
