Business management specialists, Auditel, the pioneers of strategic cost management, hosted their annual Supplier Exhibition on the 7th June at the Trent Vineyard Conference Centre, Nottingham.

Whilst independence is central to the Auditel offering, experience has proven that establishing the right relationships with the right kind of suppliers means our clients really do benefit from great deals and service.

This annual event allows suppliers and consultants to meet face-to-face and enhance knowledge and understanding of each other’s services in a way that adds real value to our client offering.

Our suppliers for the event included major energy companies, telecoms providers, office supplies, and a wide range of business services from insurance to finance, and just about everything the modern business needs.

Suppliers will always be the lifeblood of our business. Without their ongoing support, we could not provide the level of products and services that our clients have come to expect.

This year included a pre-exhibition breakfast called ‘Meet our new suppliers’. Each new supplier to the exhibition was given a two minute opportunity to introduce themselves and say why delegates should visit their stand to find out more about what they could offer our clients.

Some feedback from suppliers:

“An opportunity to catch up with consultants, network and discuss new opportunities and technology.”

“A chance to discuss ongoing and potential products.”

“The networking opportunity was better than our expectations.”

“A great opportunity to meet consultants face to face to understand the type of customers / markets they deal with and their common problems.”

Some feedback from consultants:

“Some very interesting new suppliers with good ideas for me to take back to my clients.”

“Meeting suppliers who have the solutions that have the potential to unlock new areas of business.”

“Well worth a day out in my diary to improve, update and refresh my knowledge of suppliers’ services.”
