CONSIDERATIONS

Finding the right partner

While the benefits of working with an organisation that takes client integration seriously are obvious, the challenge is finding that right supplier for your organisation’s requirements. Here are some points to consider before you enrol a new partner.

Finding the right supplier
It can be tricky to find the right partner that meets your specific needs and requirements. Selecting Commercial ticks the boxes in terms of experience, reputation and price.
Onboarding process
The onboarding process can be complex and time-consuming, particularly for larger organisations. Our experience ensures that we can integrate your new systems into existing ones, seamlessly and efficiently.
Communication
There can be challenges around communication, particularly if your Integration Consultancy is in a different country or has a different native language to you. Setting clear expectations and guidelines is something we pride ourselves on to avoid any lack of clarity.
Managing the transition
The transition from an existing supplier to a new one can be a challenge. Our careful planning ensures a seamless transition without disrupting your operations or services.
Ensuring quality of service
For us it’s a given that you want the best level of service. We set clear performance expectations and review against these regularly to ensure we are doing just that.

Don’t just take
our word for it…

Commercial deliver. We are fortunate to work with some amazing partners. Here are some examples of great things we hear every day.

The new Walsall Housing Group office is a fantastic, fresh and modern workplace thanks to the wonderful work of the Commercial interiors team. They created a steering group to work alongside us to understand our demands and held regular meetings during the design process to keep us informed of the progress. Our desire was for a more collaborative space, with meeting booths and one-to-one seating, rather than traditional desks – and they delivered a fantastic final fit-out over the full four-floor building.
Each year, Commercial supplies accessory packs to graduate trainees at a leading accountancy firm, which are then picked, packed, and delivered to their home addresses by the Commercial Foundation. This not only guarantees that every new employee has the necessary equipment to be productive from their first day but also allows their IT team to focus on other responsibilities. Collaborating with the Commercial Foundation generates substantial social value returns on investment for the firm and contributes to improving the lives of the Foundation's volunteers.
Wollens have enjoyed a long-standing and fruitful partnership with Commercial because they are always introducing innovations and improvements to our IT environment. As the threat of cyber-attacks increases it was vital that we strengthened our capabilities for dealing with a ransomware attack with a cloud-based backup solution. Our solution means data cannot be altered or deleted, giving us a crucial way of recovering data to minimise any potential downtime and financial losses
Working with Commercial for our branded materials has proved to be effective and collaborative. The team is efficient and they listen to requests for improvements. Commercial has made branded goods simple.
As E-commerce in retail continues to grow, Commercial’s stock-management and fulfilment expertise has allowed a leading UK retailer to free huge amounts of warehouse space. Commercial took on the stocking of our employee uniform, transferring to a new supplier with the management of the supply being consolidated into their existing supply accounts. Not only did this free vital space in their distribution centre, the consolidated supply of all GNFR delivered significant delivery cost savings.
At JoJo Maman Bébé we are happy to work with the Commercial Foundation and support inspiring work they do to help disadvantaged young adults. Like us, the Foundation are a B Corp certified organisation that is proven to put purpose ahead of profits. We have enjoyed working with their volunteers to help with a mug-making activity. We are now working alongside them to create an introduction gift for our new employees, these include printed mugs, pens and notebooks.
