Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd and Syncro Group have launched a new partnership initiative to offer the 16,700 care home providers in the UK with solutions to the major administrative challenges that are exposing them to unnecessary costs, excessive workload, security and regulatory compliance risks. The UK care home sector employs approximately three quarters of a million people. However, it is an industry that experiences high staff turnover, which causes IT management and administrative challenges (from onboarding staff to timesheets and payments). Furthermore, many care home providers have disparate technology infrastructure (often from acquisitions and expansion), resulting in high costs of managing multiple vendors and contracts. With solutions underpinned by Konica Minolta’s field-proven technologies, Syncro Group is providing care home providers with a single point of contact to streamline operations and reap the rewards of digital transformation
The UK care home sector employs approximately three quarters of a million people.

Many care home providers are still heavily reliant on paper-based (often handwritten) processes and by introducing the latest document management and workflows (incorporating intelligent document scanning), care home providers can reduce processing time by as much as 60%. Where print continues to be essential, Syncro Group can optimise expenditure through AI-powered business automation that centralises print management by monitoring and reporting usage across the entire print fleet, managing the replenishment of consumables (toner and maintenance parts), automatically reporting any faults and detecting and flagging potential security vulnerabilities.
