Background
Blackadder & McMonagle solicitors have been providing legal services in Falkirk and the surrounding district for over one hundred years.
The firm’s current offices at 41 High Street in Falkirk are kept regularly freshened and equipped with all that one would expect in a modern office environment.
The Challenge
Blackadder & McMonagle faced challenges with their existing printing infrastructure, which included a mix of desktop printers and photocopiers. The primary issues were high running costs due to frequent cartridge replacements and other consumables, and the environmental impact of these technologies.
The company aimed to balance their output needs with reducing operational costs and minimising environmental impact
The Solution
Agilico conducted a comprehensive asset review of Blackadder & McMonagle’s printing requirements. This assessment identified significant opportunities to enhance functionality while lowering both environmental impact and expenses.
Agilico recommended replacing the existing machines with more efficient Sharp multifunctional devices (MFDs), meeting all operational needs while being fast, easy to use, and highly reliable. The advanced yet user-friendly communication features of the Sharp MFDs particularly impressed the customer.
Agilico supplied two Sharp MFDs, along with mid-range black-and-white single function devices. The installation was seamless, and comprehensive training was provided to the in-house team, ensuring smooth integration into their workflow.
Our proactive fleet management helps prevent issues before they arise, reducing costs, and enhancing productivity. With remote monitoring solutions as a free upgrade to all of our customers, we’ll maximise your device uptime and proactively manage your supplies and servicing.
The fleet management and our service excellence ensure a seamless and efficient printing environment, ultimately improving user satisfaction and operational effectiveness.
”We are definitely seeing benefits. The Sharp multifunctional devices are fast, efficient and reliable, Agilico respond quickly to our needs. Replacing devices has helped reduce waste and save money. The service provided by the Agilico team is really excellent and we enjoy a personal relationship with them.

The Results
With their new print set up, and supported by Agilico’s comprehensive managed print service, Blackadder & McMonagle experienced considerable savings, no longer needing to purchase high-cost toner cartridges and drums. The new Sharp MFDs proved to be not only cost-effective but also faster and more productive.
Staff can now use the scan-to-email facility to quickly respond to client requests, significantly improving customer communication. Copies of documents can be scanned and forwarded directly to email, further speeding up processes.
The implementation of Sharp multifunctional products by Agilico resulted in improved functionality, reduced costs, and a lower environmental footprint for Blackadder & McMonagle. This case highlights the importance of regular asset reviews and the potential benefits of upgrading to more efficient technologies.
