The Insourcing Opportunity
LeValley: “We do not receive any funding. We pay our own salaries, buy our own equipment, etc. So technically we are a small business. We are not a commercial printer, however. Commercial printers can, and do, pursue ‘our’ jobs. We can’t, and don’t, pursue ‘their’ jobs. That is the difference.”
Bundsgaard: “In reality, we are because we need to be. To most effectively serve the campus and the printing/imaging needs of the campus, we have to become a commercial printer. Here at the University of Arkansas, we are an auxiliary, so that makes us even more of an organization that emulates a private commercial printer, as we need to pay for everything we spend.”
