The Print Management Company, Print Audit, today announced that it has partnered with Digital Gateway, whose flagship product e-automate, helps dealers drive their critical business processes.

An important step in the development of an all-inclusive device reporting program is the partnership between Print Audit and Digital Gateway. Designed to allow dealers to remotely collect meter reads, automate supply needs and report service information for managing fleets of copiers, printers, fax machines and multi-function devices, Facilities Manager is an easy-to-use software program. e-automate is the central tool which enables office equipment dealers to manage core functions of their business using one intuitive, integrated system.

To update meter information for equipment, information collected by Facilities Manager is sent to e-automate. e-automate, working in collaboration with Facilities Manager, can restructure the entire meter gathering process for billing cost-per-page contracts, as well as empower the service technicians in the field with up-to-date meter status on devices. Dealers, using Facilities Manager, can setup scheduled reporting to ensure e-automate is kept up to date automatically.

With Facilities Manager being one of their principal products, Print Audit offers a full suite of powerful print management tools that assist office equipment providers in selling more hardware, supplies and services. Digital Gateway's e-automate includes full featured sales, inventory, purchasing, service, contract management and accounting tools, and has helped hundreds of businesses stay lean, focused, competitive and profitable.

CEO of Digital Gateway, Jim Phillips, declared: "We're excited about our partnership with Print Audit because it will help dealers better stay on top of all their office equipment and ensure they're getting every dollar they can from the devices."
