Connect partners
Bringing businesses closer together
Customers are demanding more from your relationship - more comprehensive service, faster response times.
You need the same from your suppliers.
And when you're working with external business partners, you need quick and easy access to all the information about your joint projects - while keeping it away from other companies' eyes.

Would your business benefit?
What are the advantages?
Solutions for connecting partners make good business sense in a wide range of situations, including: Where you work regularly with suppliers of specialist services or exchange large volumes of information - eg. payroll files to a payroll bureau.
If you have important customers who need regular access to information, for instance wholesalers who need access to catalogues of the products you manufacture or supply.
Where you're building a more responsive and efficient supply chain from component suppliers to end users.
If you're a franchise or co-operative business with individual units that need access to centralised systems and information.
Joint ventures where information about the shared venture needs to be available to both parties.
Where you provide specialist services that involve transferring sensitive information electronically. For example you may be a financial services provider, or a health professional sharing patient information.
Improved service. You can offer key customers online access to information they need for their business - eg. stock levels, pricing and specifications. It raises the standard of your service and builds customer loyalty.
Increased efficiency. Systems and applications can be standardised between partners or units to streamline information flows. Information can be shared quickly and easily between business partners. Better information means you can manage production planning and inventory control more efficiently.
Connecting with your partners helps you meet a range of key business objectives, including:Security for your information. Using our Secure Private Network and linking with your own authentication and desktop security precautions, we can help you share selected information more safely and securely with trusted partners.
Outsource for additional gains. With the flexibility to connect partners you can outsource business functions such as payroll, IT and accounting, to maximise efficiency.
