As our latest market advisory reveals, the document imaging industry is approaching a pivotal moment that will impact everyone in the ecosystem—manufacturers, channel partners, ISVs, service providers, and end customers alike.
Consider this: In 2025, office print devices are predicted to transform into AI-powered data hubs. But what does this really mean for the industry? Will this evolution create new opportunities for solution providers to monetize document processing and workflow automation? Could we see manufacturers, software providers, and channel partners collaborating in entirely new ways?
The sustainability imperative adds another fascinating dimension. As corporate ESG initiatives gain momentum, remanufactured devices are expected to capture a significant share of new placements. This raises profound questions about how the entire industry—from manufacturing to distribution to service—might need to reinvent traditional business models.
Meanwhile, the traditional channel landscape faces unprecedented change as hardware-centric business models evolve and IT-led distribution gains ground. The questions here aren't just about adaptation—they're about transformation across the entire value chain.
