Ricoh USA, Inc. announced it won a Buyers Lab (BLI) PaceSetter Award 2020–2021 in Business Process Services.
The analysts cited the company’s ‘holistic approach’, especially with its recently announced RICOH Intelligent Business Platform. Keypoint Intelligence, the independent evaluator of document imaging and smart workplace business products, selected winners that, according to Buyers Lab, “have the best managed services offerings” in the relevant area.
In their evaluation, Keypoint Intelligence praised Ricoh’s “evolving library of services”. The evaluation noted that Ricoh “constantly refines” its offerings with a diverse focus to aid process optimisation for the modern, agile workforce. The Intelligent Business Platform was central to the analysts’ decision.
“Ricoh goes to great lengths to develop their portfolio to continue finding newer and better ways to help their customers,” said Jamie Bsales, Director, Solutions & Security Analysis, Keypoint Intelligence. “This has been especially evident as many businesses’ needs have changed drastically in recent months. Ricoh has risen to the occasion, building on an already-strong portfolio in workflow and process automation, document digitization, intelligent capture and more. The Intelligent Business Platform represents a fundamental shift in business process automation, an ecosystem tailor-made to help organisations respond to today’s challenges.”
