Toshiba America Business Solutions (TABS) recently announced the expansion of its core business with the launch of Toshiba Managed Business Services (TMBS) unit. The new organization, which will be self-sufficient, will look to strengthen the company’s present business services offerings in managed print services (MPS), managed document solutions (MDS), document security, workflow/capture and barcode printing systems. In addition, TMBS will look to establish a Toshiba U.S. market presence in the retail kiosks and digital signage business. Its primary focus will be on the financial, healthcare, education and retail markets.
The new organization, while having its own staff and operating separately from existing business units and channels, will also leverage existing strengths at TABS, according to Bill Melo, vice president of marketing, services and solutions, TABS, and general manager of TMBS. TMBS will be housed at TABS’ new headquarters in Irvine, Calif., and co-located at TABS facilities throughout the country.
