STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS

STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS WITH THE FASTENER SUPPLY CHAIN NETWORK (FSCN) It is all about relationships. Everyone is involved: from our customers to their suppliers, sourcing sites and others that can help our customers succeed. SUPPLIERS - We are in our tenth year of being connected to the well known master distributor: Brighton-Best International. In that time we have added to our list of suppliers we are connected with: Kanebridge Corporation, Stelfast Inc, and XL Screw Corporation. We have plans to add Metrics and Multistandard Components and Vertex in 2020. We continue to have open dialogs with other suppliers and expect to continue to create new relevant connections. These robust connections allow you to access live pricing and availability from your suppliers without leaving The Business Edge. All of the information, no matter where it is coming from, is presented in the same look and feel you are used to. Prices and availability are checked against live data during purchase order entry. In addition, the suppliers’ package quantities are used to ensure the quantity you are ordering makes sense. Time is saved on both sides of the transaction when you order a quantity that can be delivered at a price that has been agreed on from a location that has it available to ship. Electronic submission of your PO’s saves more time and earns you any web discounts that would apply if you ordered from the web. Peggy Hsieh of Brighton-Best International shares, “Ten years ago, BBI’s relationship with Computer Insights started with a chance encounter at an industry event dinner. Although Dennis and I didn’t know each other well, we trusted each other’s commitment to the distributors/customers and saw their need to increase efficiencies in day-to-day transactions. We could not have known what would come from that meeting, but I could not be more proud of the impact that the BBI Connection with Computer Insights had on our mutual customers.” Simmi Sakhuja of Stelfast, “The core of our business is based on strong customer relationships and one of the keys is listening to our customers. When customers asked us to partner with Dennis, we jumped at the opportunity. In a short period of time, The Business Edge has helped grow our business as well as making it easy for our customers to do business with us. Computer Insights have been a wonderful partner in this sector.” SOURCING SITES - Our relationships with popular inventory sourcing sites can help if you are: looking for inventory, want of find people to buy from you or both. Search and upload inventory without ever leaving The Business Edge. Connections currently include: FCH, Nationwide, ILS Mart & PartsBase. Chris Bourque of PartsBase, “Everyone was impressed with the speed Computer Insights was able to get a connection up and running with PartsBase. They have been a joy to work with both on the personal side and the technical side.” OTHERS - With the use of industry standard tools, The Business Edge allows outside developers to read, write and respond to requests all connected to live data. Some of the third party developers we work with include but are not limited to: AmericanEagle, Apex Supply Chain Technologies, Avalara AvaTax, CardConnect, eCreativeWorks, Intuilize and VendNovation. Mark of Avalara, “Computer Insights went above and beyond when they developed their Avalara AvaTax integration.”
