## Description

The Council strives to communicate effectively with all of its residents, workforce, visitors and businesses\. One method of communication is print and associated products\. a number of difficulties have been identified in relation to the usage of printers\. The key areas identified are as follows: • varying levels of expertise across the Council; • lack of consistency in compiling specifications; • varying knowledge in commissioning printers; • wide ranging quality of printed matter produced; • lack of compliance with Corporate Standards; • varying levels of prices being charged across the Council; • lack of consistency in approach when producing printed materials\.
