Deterring the Outsourcing Firms
Some of the small in-plants profiled in this issue credit the addition of value-added services with keeping their in-plants alive and vibrant. The two-employee in-plant at Chippewa Valley Technical College (story on page 18) has taken on mail, CD duplication, copier repair, envelope and paper sales, deliveries and more. The sheer number of non-print services the shop now provides has served as a deterrent to facilities management companies.
