A system includes a plurality of print service providers (15-18) and a print job oversight and analysis center. The print job oversight and analysis center is adapted to, in response to receiving a job requiring printing and delivering documents, determining geographic locations of recipients (21-31) of the documents and selecting a subset of the print service providers (15-18) to print the documents and send the documents to the recipients (21-31). Each of the print service providers (15-18) in the subset of print service providers (15-18) prints documents for a subset of the recipients (21-31). The documents are apportioned among the subset of print service providers (15-18) based on the geographic locations of the recipients (21-31) of the documents so as to coordinate delivery time from the subset of print service providers (15-18) to the recipients (21-31).
