The Ideal Support Wigan-based Ideal Business Services is one of the many North West IT companies that has been supported by Business Link Northwest. has already won similar contracts with neighbouring Caribbean islands. Business Link Northwest Digital and Creative Adviser, Ian Dunkerley, has supported Ideal Business Services’ penetration of the overseas market and recommended that they contact UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) to help them achieve more international work. Following this the directors took an intensive course called Passport to Export to equip them with the skills they need to achieve more overseas work.

For Ideal Business Services, the Caribbean is not a far off and exotic location, but more of a home from home. The company has successfully developed bespoke software solutions for the air and shipping ports in St Lucia and has now opened a second office over there. Since then, Ideal Business Services

Joint Director, Paul Jones, says: “We worked with Ian to do a diagnostic of the company which highlighted our strengths and weaknesses. We found that the financial side of the business required attention, we needed to look into promoting our achievements with public relations and our website needed revamping. “Through Business Link’s support we have now started shouting about our achievements by issuing press releases, redesigning our website and working on search engine optimisation. Ian’s support helps us to sort

out some of the small but important things so we can concentrate on running the business. He has also pointed us in the right direction for training providers and avenues for grant assistance. “Ian has been a reliable source of support and information for us over the years and has always been very helpful.”

THE STORY SO FAR... Merit was started in 1988 in order to address the IT related issues being experienced at that time by some of the larger organisations based in the region. The demand for computing power to help drive the business processes within these organisations was immense yet there were issues surrounding the local supply and availability of technology and the all important expertise to tackle projects. Merit took the lead in seeking out and bringing technology solutions to share amongst its members and others. Over the years this formula proved to be very successful and organisations were able to get information about solutions for their organisations. Often, the success, or otherwise, of these adopted IT solutions was fed back through the Merit knowledge sharing forum which in itself proved to be valuable in terms of organisations being able to make better informed choices about the right solutions; often saving them time and money. As time went by and the larger organisations improved their IT capability Meritâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s focus was drawn to the greater need now developing in the much larger SME sector. Merit was able to take advantage of the public funding available to support SMEs and along with partners such as the local chambers of commerce and universities, Merit was able to deliver much needed technology projects to the SME sector bringing them knowledge, capability and the much needed skills helping them to become more productive increasing their competitiveness and growth potential.

G O I N G F O R WA R D . . . TECHNOLOGY SEMINARS Currently Merit works across the North West to promote best practice in the use of IT in all organisations, bringing the maximum benefits achievable with appropriate technology and employees with the right level of skills to manage and use the technology effectively. Going forward Merit will build upon its past successes in assisting businesses to achieve the most benefit from their investments in technology by continuing to deliver the Merit Seminar programme promoting best practice use in IT. The programme delivers technology seminars that are both informative and enlightening; and offers delegates the opportunity to ask experts questions pertinent to their needs. Delegates also have the opportunity to build their network of contacts and can share their experiences and solutions with colleagues from other organisations who face the same challenges as them. TRAINING To help organisations, and individuals, take advantage of technology Merit works with specialist providers to deliver workshops and training course related to the subjects presented at the technology seminars. Training can be provided for both end users and IT professionals.

PROJECTS & FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES For many years Merit has delivered publicly funded projects with partners such as chambers of commerce and universities to encourage businesses to innovate and adopt technologies to increase productivity and lead to growth. Merit continues to work with partners in developing project bids that will deliver positive outcomes for organisations across the region. W H AT N E X T ?

D O I N G B U S I N E S S I N T H E D I G I TA L D E C A D E As if running a business wasn’t difficult enough! Trying to keep ahead of, or at least up with, your competitors, keeping your customers so happy that they want to come back for more; keeping your suppliers happy by ordering plenty and paying them on time; keeping the books up to date to keep the accountant happy; and most important of all, the staff, for without this bunch of highly skilled, highly motivated and professional individuals our businesses would not survive.

It can sometimes feel like you’re working in isolation with little or no support except for some correspondence from your bank or the tax man telling you that they’re really you’re friend and they’re there to ‘help you’. It’s no small wonder that we dream of a simpler life on a beach without a worry in the world, no customers, no competitors, no staff, no banks, no tax man; no chance! The reality is that all businesses, no matter how large or how small, all face the same difficulties and challenges; managing to survive and hopefully succeed in an ever increasingly competitive world. Despite the challenges each of us has to deal with on a daily basis there is a real friend willing and able to help us manage not only the monotonous and onerous tasks we need to perform just to keep the business machine ticking over, but to lend a hand making it possible for our businesses to become more competitive, develop and grow by enabling them to be efficient, low cost and productive. We, of course, are referring to ICT (Information and Communications Technology) in all of its forms, hardware; software; applications; PDAs; smart phones; mobiles; laptops; desktops; voice and data networks (LANs, WANs, WiFi, WiMax) and of course the Internet. But more importantly, how these digital technologies are harnessed by businesses to help deliver the business strategy and that all important competitive advantage. These ‘Digital Decade’ technologies are converging to deliver the ‘Connected Experience’ for both consumer and business alike and at the same time helping to drive the ‘Digital Inclusion’ and ‘Flexible Working’ agendas enabling everybody to participate equally in both business and society.

So what exactly are these technologies and how can we use them to enhance our business performance? Connectivity is the key to enabling these technologies, whether that’s directly to each other, via the Internet or a private network. Access to the Internet has dramatically increased at both consumer and business levels in the past few years stimulating the market in online applications for both business and leisure activities. We are now seeing the beginnings of a seamless merging of our private and business lives, no longer are we tied to time and place for our work, technology has enabled flexible and remote working so that it’s a real possibility to work anytime, anyplace, anywhere. The technological barriers have been breached, its now time for a paradigm shift in cultural and business management attitudes to take full advantage of the opportunities offered by technologies such as wireless, VoIP, online applications accessed via the Internet and hand held devices such as Blackberry, XDA and iphone. Applications delivered via the Internet are on the increase with businesses demanding new ways of accessing, managing and deploying software. The prevalence of this type of application has been in areas such as CRM, marketing applications to deliver and manage e-mail campaigns and newsletters, off-site data backup and restore, and more recently the virtualisation of the desktop enabling users to access their whole desktop including applications and data remotely. Devices from laptops and PDAs to smart phones enable users to work just effectively away from the office; with a client, a collaborative partner, at home or anywhere a wireless connection is available. These devices are converging to give voice, data and applications in one small portable device, making easier and quicker to respond to customers and colleagues alike; and in this always connected ‘Digital Decade’ it could mean the difference between success or a missed opportunity.

H A R N E S S I N G D I G I TA L T E C H N O L O G I E S Love it or loathe it, you can’t escape it; and why would you want to? Digital technologies have slowly and stealthily entered into our world over the past few decades without us paying too much attention to them. They have crept into every part of our daily lives, from work to leisure and healthcare to learning; they’re there benignly working away to improve our lives.

Love it or loathe it, you can’t escape it; and why would you want to? Digital technologies have slowly and stealthily entered into our world over the past few decades without us paying too much attention to them. They have crept into every part of our daily lives, from work to leisure and healthcare to learning; they’re there benignly working away to improve our lives. In recent years this arrival has increased in both pace and variety from its first appearance in our lives as strange looking machines in the workplace, cash machines in the street [another Liverpool first], computer controlled traffic lights [who can forget the chaos caused by Benny Hill as the ‘eccentric’ professor Peach tampering with Turin’s computer controlled traffic light system in the 1969 classic the Italian Job in order to create the sort of traffic jam nightmare we face today?]. But not to worry, digital technology has a solution to ease the burden of this daily trial; congestion charging, on its way to a city near you very soon! But it’s not all bad news; digital technology is not just there to assist the authorities to punish us more easily for our minor transgressions and the councils to extract even more of your hard earned cash for very little effort [it just seems that way some times], it can be used for the power of good too and help make our lives easier and hopefully less stressful. Take your average small business employing several people, all on the 9 to 5 treadmill, working in the same office, travelling in their own single occupied car for an average journey time of 45 minutes to travel 10 to 12 miles each way 5 days a week. Why? Well because that the way things are! The business is run from this office, the computers are there, the telephones are there and so are all the files and records. The boss is there too, because this is his [or her] domain where he [she] is the master in complete control of all they survey and its the way things are done, because that’s the way they’ve always been done, and while employees are sat at their desks [where they can be seen by the boss] they’re working productively and efficiently helping the business to grow; aren’t they?

D I R ECT O RY 2 0 0 910

As a good example of appropriate use, and a little leap of faith, why not bring about a step change in your business and use digital technology to enable your workforce to work flexibly; from home or anywhere else for that matter? The technology is widely available, and it’s relatively inexpensive, and with the right training businesses can manage it themselves without too much fuss and with increased productivity as demonstrated by most studies into this mode of working. “But what about the health & safety implications?” I hear some people ask; yes there are some basic requirements to put in place, but this is often put forward by management as a reason why they can’t allow their people to work remotely; and more times than not it’s a poor excuse for poor management who don’t trust and can’t manage their staff effectively. Arming your workforce with technology enabling them to work remotely can improve productivity considerably. Giving them the ability to process workflow quicker by remotely being able to accept orders, raise invoices, process payments and deliver higher levels of customer satisfaction by being able to respond quickly, efficiently and accurately to customer demands will all impact significantly on your bottom line – or that of you competitors if you don’t act quickly enough. Its not rocket science, the digital technologies required to enable business growth are available hear and now, all you need to do as a business owner/manager is to HARNESS them. Find out what technology is out there to suit your particular business need, get some advice, get some demonstrations of the available solutions, see if there’s any business support available in form of advice, guidance and grants. Research your business sector to find out what the industry standard applications are. What are the alternatives? What is the competition doing? What are you going to do? There can be no doubt, harnessing the right digital technology, for some of the key functional areas of your business can reap many benefits for your business, your employees and most importantly for your customers. So there you have it! It’s a win/win situation all round; and it’s good for the environment too, less travel, less pollution, less CO2, reducing your carbon footprint. And with less demand on paper and print resources, it keeps tree huggers happy too!

HOW TO BUY IT Merit believes that the old axiom ‘Caveat Emptor’, or ‘let the buyer beware’, has no place when sourcing new technology. Merit wants individuals, businesses and organisations to be confident that their decision making process has been helped by virtue of the fact that some effort has been made by them to research the market, and the claims of suppliers, by undertaking some very simple ‘due diligence’ and ‘best practice’ steps. Prospective purchasers should always exercise caution whenever selecting a new supplier, especially if they are making a significant purchase in terms of cost and criticality to business processes. As a rough guide the following areas should be addresses carefully:

1. What to look for when selecting an ICT Supplier n l l l l l l

Reliability and stability of the supplier, measured by the: Reputation for supplying/supporting the proposed acquisition; Existing customer satisfaction with the level of service; Willingness to negotiate any special conditions of contract; Technical capacity to handle the proposed acquisition; Financial standing to meet all contractual commitments; Research and Development commitment, i.e. future of the products being offered.

n l l l

Project management experience, as demonstrated by: Prior experience with projects of a similar size and complexity; Availability of suitably qualified staff to support the proposal with details on background, experience and the level and degree of project input Commitment to quality

2. The Purchase Process

n l l l l l l

Plan the ICT Purchase Determine business need. Prepare business case. Appoint single Project Owner. Write down key milestone dates. Assess potential risks. Involve key staff and Users.

n l l l l l l

Detail the Requirements Describe business plans and objectives. Describe business needs and current issues. State solution objective and expected outcomes. Specify solution requirements and key features. Provide size information about Users and data. Specify minimum performance standards.

D I R ECT O RY 2 0 0 910

n l l l l

Identify Suppliers and Request a Quotation Research potential Suppliers. Compile shortlist of suitable Suppliers. Prepare RFQ (request for quotes) with clear instructions. Issue RFQ and manage responses.

n l l l l l l

Evaluate the Suppliers’ Responses Establish solution and Supplier evaluation criteria. Evaluate proposals and agree which are suitable. Arrange Supplier presentations and demonstrations. Assess solution fitness-for-purpose. Assess suitability of the Suppliers. Assess overall value for money.

n l l l l l

Select the Preferred Supplier Organise demonstrations. Obtain proof of performance. Conduct reference calls / visits. Resolve outstanding issues. Make first and second choice selections.

n l l l

Place Order with Supplier Assess preferred Supplier terms and conditions. Negotiate key terms to protect your business. Obtain any assurances in writing.

n l l l l l l l

Implementation Establish open dialogue with Supplier. Control changes in consultation with Supplier. Dedicate time and resource to testing. Complete testing before accepting new system. Organise training for all Users. Ensure Supplier has met all obligations before final handover. Identify ‘lessons learned’ for your next purchase.

A GUIDE FOR GOOD PRACTICE

BDJR Computers Ltd Providing IT support to small businesses on Merseyside

BDJR specialise in providing support in businesses with 1 – 40 computers. We realise that organisations of this size can’t justify dedicated IT resource of their own, but have the same need to use technology to keep up with their rivals. Our approach is to try to understand your business so that we can provide advice as well as fix problems. We don’t operate through a call centre, but by named individuals who visit the premises and talk to people, so if you need help you already know the person you are asking. We also try to visit when things aren’t going wrong, when you have time to think about little things that you don’t think are worth phoning about, and to discuss what your business issues are, just like you would do if you had someone on the staff. We can help with all aspects of ICT in the office from PCs and servers, to telephone systems and networks, from advice to design to installation, and importantly to ongoing support. If you think that sounds like what you need, phone or email and we will be happy to discuss how we can help. email info@bdjr.com or call Paul on 0845 123 5742

S A V E M O N E Y, M A K E M O N E Y & IMPROVE CUSTOMER SERVICE Business telephone systems have for a long time been associated with expensive equipment, high implementation costs and support fees. This is why most businesses have retained their current telephone systems in excess of 5 years, only replacing or upgrading if the physical equipment will no longer do its primary job! This leads me to the point of this article, to help you identify in your business exactly what is the primary job of your telephone system? In a nutshell most would agree that the primary job of a telephone system is: to assist in the delivery of your organisations commercial objective of sales, service or both. With this in mind I wanted to share with you some key areas where business telephone systems such as AVAYA, NEC and SAMSUNG can add real value to your bottom line, be that financial efficiency or exceptional customer service and retention.

l Save Money and increase capacity by consolidating all of your phone lines, fax lines, broadband lines, private lines, other business lines, alarm lines, modem lines into a lower cost, higher capacity flexible digital ISDN and/or IP telephony (VOIP) service. l Make Money by accessing local markets throughout the UK and Overseas by providing perceived local presence through the use of multiple unique geographic numbers such as 0151, 0161, 0141, 0121, 08, all numbers pointing directly back to your sales or service teams l Improve customer service and Save Money by using unique telephone numbers for each of your marketing resources, web, brochures, flyers, advertising campaigns and key accounts automatically reporting on each to identify the best and worst performers. l Improve customer service and Make Money by increasing sales and support responsiveness through the use of intelligent call routing which will connect each call uniquely with the best person in your business based on their skills and availability regardless of their location. l Save Money by having all of your calls go via the cheapest possible route automatically, imagine calls to mobiles, 118, 123 or 087 NEVER appearing on your phone bill as they are routed to lowest or zero cost destinations automatically. l Save Money, Make Money and Improve Customer Service with comprehensive message management. Integrated business voicemail systems have come a long way over the years and now provide the most flexible and accurate methods, to suit ALL, of capturing and delivering information between customers and employees when the best contact is presently unavailable 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

l Improve Customer Service and Save Money through the use of bespoke queue management within your business telephone systems. Direct calls day and night to individuals and groups based on the callers identity with automated and bespoke messages to temporarily unanswered calls. Providing customers with relevant, accurate information and choices is proven to increase the number of satisfied callers to any organisation. l Save Money, Make Money and Improve Customer Service by recording business telephone calls. Having the facility to record any business call means your staff can focus on active listening in the confidence that all essential comments are being captured for future playback resulting in much more productive conversations as well as an excellent training tool. l Save Money, Make Money and Improve Customer Service by utilising your entire organisation to share the load of incoming calls. Whether you have one site or several, your business telephone system can route calls to multiple people at the same time. Imagine a sales/support call being presented to desk phones in 2 offices as well as 2 mobile phones and 1 home-worker all at the same time, imagine the flexibility of each worker opting in and out of such a group l Save Money and Improve Customer Service by making your workforce location independent whilst remaining fully integrated. Imagine a time where your knowledge workers and fee earners are visible and accessible to any means of communication because your telephone system is integrated to your data, mobile and contact management systems.

As most businesses and organisations operate in their own unique style, so does the specific functionality deployed from a telephone system. The 10 points summarised above are an introductory flavour of just a handful of the ways in which your business telephone systems can be configured to support the primary objectives of your organisation.

Why not find out how much more you can get from your telephone system so you can you ensure it is actually doing its PRIMARY job.

I T S upport There are many benefits of outsourcing IT Support to a professional third party organisation, whatever your size or organisational structure. Key benefits include accountability through Service Level Agreements, cost savings through economies of scale, and most importantly access to a broad and superior IT knowledge base. An outsourced IT company never goes on holiday, never has days off sick and isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t interested in pension contributions and healthcare cover, all of which are significant issues if you employ your own IT staff. A good IT Support Company should reduce your business interruption allowing you to concentrate on the thing you do best â&#x20AC;&#x201C; running your business.

Outsourced IT works by logging technical problems via the phone, e-mail or the internet. An engineer will then either diagnose the issue over the phone or may request remote access to PCs or servers to work on the problem, using the internet. Occasionally an engineer may be required on site to resolve an issue but these visits are rare due to the effectiveness of remote support tools. At the beginning of a contract a support company will audit your equipment so that they have a good understanding of your IT network, which then enables them to support your business effectively.

When choosing an IT company to support your organisation you should consider a number of different factors. Reputation is key - ask for references from a similar sized business to your own, and make sure that the IT company has the ability to communicate effectively as well as solve your technical problems. Accreditation is also a useful benchmark, ensure that the organisation has engineers that match the skills you are looking for, and make sure you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tie yourself into lengthy support contracts that are difficult to exit from. There are a wide variety of companies out there so choose wisely, as they are looking after a very important part of your business.
