Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most often.

What is a managed print consultant?+
A managed print consultant is an independent advisor who helps organizations evaluate, optimize, and manage their print environment — including copier fleets, cost-per-copy rates, service contracts, and vendor relationships. Unlike a vendor representative, a managed print consultant works in your interest, not the vendor's. True Measure Advisors brings 20+ years of hands-on MPS industry experience to every engagement.
How can a copier contract review save money?+
Most organizations sign copier and managed print contracts without a full understanding of what they've agreed to. A contract review identifies above-market cost-per-copy rates, automatic renewal clauses that lock you into another term without notice, annual rate escalation provisions, minimum volume commitments you may be paying for but not using, and lease terms with hidden end-of-term obligations. Many organizations discover they've been overpaying for months or years — and a review gives them the information they need to renegotiate from a position of knowledge.
What is included in RFP consulting services?+
Our RFP consulting services cover both sides of the process. For vendors responding to RFPs, we provide bid/no-bid assessment, proposal writing, executive summaries, compliance matrices, pricing narratives, and BAFO preparation. For organizations writing RFPs, we help define requirements, structure evaluation criteria, develop vendor checklists, and build procurement documents that attract complete, comparable responses — dramatically reducing Q&A volume and addendum cycles.
Do you work with school districts and government agencies?+
Yes. We have deep experience with public sector procurement across K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, municipalities, and county governments. We understand the unique compliance requirements, procurement regulations, and budget constraints these organizations face — and we tailor our approach accordingly.
Do you help technology vendors respond to RFPs?+
Yes — this is one of our core services. We work primarily with copier dealers and managed print providers to help them identify relevant bid opportunities, vet those opportunities for risk and win probability, and build proposals that clearly communicate their value to evaluators. We know what procurement teams look for because we've spent years working alongside them.
Are you truly independent and vendor-neutral?+
Yes — completely. True Measure Advisors has no vendor partnerships, no referral agreements, and no products to sell. We don't receive compensation from any vendor based on what you buy or who you select. Our only revenue comes from client engagements, which means our only agenda is yours.
