Business Link introduces the

Supplier Matching Service

to the West of England

� Your opportunity to win new business.

A major aspect of the Business Link service is to help their clients find solutions to their business needs. This is achieved by determining the type of support our customers need and then seeking to identify possible commercial suppliers who can deliver the support required. 

From April 2007, in line with their Brokerage model of impartial business support, the Supplier Matching Service (SMS) will be Business Link�s only source of information on suppliers.  They will use this web-based database exclusively to search for the appropriate suppliers for their clients.

Business Link would like to invite quality providers to register on to the Supplier Matching Service (SMS) before April 2007 so that they will not miss out on the opportunity to be considered for delivery of business support to their clients as soon as the Service goes live.

Business Links in other parts of the country are already using the Supplier Matching Service.  It will now be rolled out across all Business Links in the SWRDA (South West of England Regional Development Agency) network - greatly expanding the potential business opportunities for local businesses*.

Business Link introduces the Supplier Matching Service to the
West of England- your opportunity to win new business

Business Link is keen to work with suppliers of business services to small and medium businesses in the West of England area and throughout the South West region.

A major aspect of the Business Link service is the help we give clients to find solutions to their business needs. We do this by determining, the type of support our customers need, then seek to identify possible commercial suppliers - such as your company, - who can deliver the support required. This is in line with our Brokerage model of business support.

A web-based system the Supplier Matching Service (SMS) will be our only source of information on suppliers from April 2007, listing suppliers of all kinds. At its heart SMS is a database that we will use to search for specific skills. SMS has been in operation for some time in other parts of the country.

SMS is now being rolled out across all Business Links in the SWRDA (South West of England Regional Development Agency) network, greatly expanding the potential business opportunities for your business.

For more information and online registration go to http://www.suppliermatching.co.uk/
or download the PDF guide.

SMS database registration is free of charge.

A listing on the SMS database naturally does not guarantee selection of your company for any work brokered out by Business Link. Customer demand will be the main driver. Impartiality is still important in all that we do. But we ask you to register soon on SMS, please, so that your company has the opportunity to be considered for delivery of business support to our SME clients.

Unless in connection with a special offer, payment for any services provided by your company is a matter of agreement with the client.

There is no cost to you for submitting your on-line registration.

The registration process require you to provide referees.
