Research and Markets announces the addition of "Federal, State and Local Governments: The On Demand Print and Document Services Opportunity" to their offerings.

Government expenditures exert a powerful influence on the nationÂ’s employment levels and delivery of public services. In addition to the vast resources of the Federal government, state, regional, and local governments spend additional revenues and employ additional resources, magnifying the impact of the public sector on all aspects of our nationÂ’s economy and our lives.

The expanding influence and role of government have been at the center of public and international debate, particularly since September 11, 2001. Increases in legislation and governmental regulations and oversight, particularly in the areas of defense, healthcare, and homeland security, equate to an escalation in bureaucracy and paperwork. In the course of doing business, federal, state, and local governments generate massive quantities of printed materials. Efficient performance of government duties and obligations relies on an enormous number of documents that facilitate the processes of information exchange, publishing and distribution, and training. Moreover, many documents are mandated by legislation to keep citizens informed. Although the U. S. Government Printing Office (GPO) was initially created to satisfy the document production needs of Congress, its role expanded to include a myriad of Federal departments andagencies.

These factors create significant opportunities for all organizations serving the document production, distribution, and management needs of our governmental entities. Federal, state, and local governments present tremendous opportunities for digital services providers asthey have vast resources and produce massive quantities of documents that need to be printed, stored, and disseminated. Despite attempts to reduce paper consumption and move to electronic document management, government entities will continue to generate significant volumes of print for the foreseeable future. Compliance with government rules and regulations requires focus and persistence, but the potential is significant and worth the investment in time and resources and there can be no doubt that tenacity in securing a foothold with government customers will ultimately be rewarding since they tend to maintain long-term relationships with quality vendors.

To enable digital document service providers to capitalize on the opportunities represented by this market segment, this report discusses the scope and size of government entities as well as the key trends and issues facing governmental organizations. Applications for digital and electronic delivery and Sales and marketing strategies for such applications are also analysed in this new report.
