It’s not just about profit and planet though. It’s about people too.

We are proud to be a key supplier of the national Scottish Procurement Office Equipment Framework SP-016-013 since 2009, working in partnership with Public Sector organisations to ensure:

• Transform traditional printing environments
• Reduce costs

Public Sector organisations are experiencing unprecedented change in both digital channels and data management. In recent years we have witnessed a revolution in the digital world that enables us to achieve things we could not have even imagined about a decade ago.

The core principles of public service, whatever the workplace, remain the same: to support, protect and invigorate every citizen’s life, from beginning to end. It is an extraordinary ambition - that some way, somehow, there will always be someone there for them. Canon’s technologies and services are there at every step of the journey too, helping people communicate, educate, collaborate, diagnose, protect and drive efficiencies and reduce cost.
