The Challenge
Scaling secure print across
a growing network.

In 2019, Mitsubishi sought a reliable Managed Print Services provider capable of delivering scalable and efficient print infrastructure across its UK operations. The initial requirement was to deploy 11 devices to support office operations, but as the organisation continued to grow and open additional locations, it became clear that a more strategic, long-term solution was needed.

Mitsubishi required a print infrastructure that could scale alongside its expanding UK presence, while delivering enhanced security controls, centralised print management, and full cost visibility. The challenge was to move beyond a simple device deployment and implement a solution that would bring consistency, control and efficiency to document workflows across every site.

Overview

Mitsubishi Air Conditioning Systems is part of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, a global leader in the manufacture of advanced electrical and electronic equipment.

With a strong presence across the UK, Mitsubishi Electric delivers innovative solutions including factory automation, air conditioning, elevators, and building systems.

To support its growing UK operations, the organisation requires reliable technology infrastructure that ensures efficient document management and secure printing across multiple offices.

The Solution
Intelligent print services,
built to scale.

Workflo successfully won the tender to provide Managed Print Services across Mitsubishi’s UK offices, beginning the partnership in November 2019. As the organisation expanded, Workflo continued to support new office and print requirements.

01
Scalable Managed Print
Workflo deployed and manages a fleet of multifunction devices across Mitsubishi’s offices, scaling the solution as the business continues to grow.

Secure Print Management
PaperCut print management software was implemented to provide rule-based printing, colour usage quotas and improved visibility over print activity.
03
Follow-Me Print Security
Secure follow-me printing was introduced, ensuring confidential documents are only released once users authenticate at a device.
