Serious about Sustainability

Sargent-Disc’s approach to more sustainable production involves replacing paper processes with low-energy, paperless and mobile-friendly solutions; removing the need for multiple emails and manual circulation of hard copies. Modern society consumes many natural resources and so it has become more important to maintain the three main elements of sustainable practice: economic and social development, and environmental production .

What our customers say

"DPO is a game changer for me. To be able to approve on the go and not come back to the office to a 2 foot pile of POs is wonderful and also gives me a very simple way to instantly monitor spend by department, wherever I am. I would not want to go back to paper POs."

"Having used DPO twice now, I would definitely not go back to using paper POs. The fact that it is digital means that each department and the accounts team do not have to wait for purchase orders to be sent to set for approval and then returned – they can be authorised by the UPM remotely and instantly by computer or mobile phone with a simple click of a button."

"I have worked with Sargent Disc for many years and have always found them a great support to our productions and to our WB office...There is always a friendly voice at the end of the phone and they always manage to complete our payrolls in a timely manner, regardless of the levels...I would have no doubts in recommending their services to other businesses."

"I will really struggle if I can’t use it [Digital Purchase Order] on every production. To not use it would be unthinkable."
