What is GovPrint
To meet the UK Government Digital Service (GDS) recommendations, the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) has released the framework agreement RM6174 in order for UK government departments to procure print services as part of the new GovPrint standard. The GovPrint standard requires both printer hardware and specialist software to deliver a cloud print service, deployed using only internet connectivity, enabling all users from any department to print seamlessly at any government hub building.
What does GovPrint recommend?
- Mobile workers Users need to access print services in any location.
- Host departments Users should be able to access any new printers or print services without updating.
- Hub buildings / multiple tenants Provide print services for all tenants in the hub / shared building.
