Purpose of FYFM: 

Interactive Tool you can alter with your printing habits. With the click of one button, it will incorporate both past, present and future usage, flagging any potential problematic areas.


Setting up Future Budgets:

Projecting out your cost is crucial in setting up your budgets. With FYFM you will be able to take control of your future cost for the entire life of your fleet of copiers, MFP’s and printers. STARDoc currently studies your printing habits and projects out for about eight months. FYFM will be able to project out your cost and volume for the entire life of your fleet, usually five years out.

For example: If your 2019-20 color district budget is 100,000 prints and your current color CPC is $.045 CPC, that equals $4,500 dollars in color usage alone. Last year, 83,000 students experienced a 19% average increase in color usage (See chart Industry Average Copies per Student – Color). Based on a 19% average annual increase, your Annual Cost for Year Five would mushroom to $10,738, assuming no CPC increase takes please in the interim. Obviously, gaining control of your color usage is critical!
