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
