This project focuses on evaluating and implementing Multi-Function Devices (MFDs) at FlightSafety International to improve the efficiency of office equipment management. As the largest flight training provider globally, with operational responsibility in the Simulations Systems Division, the aim is to consolidate and reduce costs for printers, copiers, scanners, and fax machines. Through detailed analysis of current expenditures, alternative leasing options have been considered, with MFDs offering significant advantages in terms of reliability and affordability. This project ultimately seeks to streamline office operations.

Project Overview • Proposal Guidelines --What does FlightSafety International do? --Project Purpose --Project Methodology --Alternatives Considered --Evaluation of Alternatives --Summary
What Does FlightSafety International Do? • The purpose of FlightSafety International -FlightSafety International is the largest provider of flight training in the world. The company has 42 sites located at various locations around the world. Approximately 65,000 pilots are trained a year by FSI. The division that I work at is the Simulations Systems Division, we are responsible for building the flight sims and shipping them off to one of our various sites.
Project Purpose • What do I hope to achieve by completing this project? -The goal is to combined the various costs of maintaining and supporting printers, scanners, copiers, and fax machines. - The solution is to lease Multi-Function Devices. These devices provide enterprise reliability and are much cheaper than standard business copiers.
Project Approach • Estimated the total amounts spent on current equipment -Calculated total monthly lease payments for copiers -Calculated monthly support, maintenance and consumable costs for printers, scanners and fax machines.
Alternatives Considered • Extend the lease on the current copiers and keep the maintenance in place to ensure the repairs and consumables are covered • Lease new high volume business copiers and send the current copiers back to the vendor • Lease multi-function devices that only have the copy option configured • Lease hybrid multi-function devices at evaluated locations
Evaluation of Alternatives • Gather Requirements • Collect Data • Evaluate Alternatives • Develop and Present Recommendation
