Vendor Relations
Schooley Mitchell is committed to providing clients with objective recommendations on how to optimize their business services. But we couldn’t do it without the long-term, trusting relationships we have established with many vendors and service providers across North America.
Though our advice is completely independent – we do not accept commissions, residuals or kickbacks from those we work with – we invite credible, reliable vendors to submit their best options to us for consideration. We welcome service providers in all our cost reduction categories.
We strongly believe that a knowledge-rich connection is beneficial for vendors, our consultants and clients alike. Reach out today to discuss the possibility of establishing a fruitful relationship with Schooley Mitchell, and become part of our competitive process to submit information and/or quotes to us on a regular basis.
Evolving Markets
Our Evolving Markets program was designed specifically for telecommunications vendors and service providers. It allows vendors to provide our consultants with reliable, up-to-date material directly from the source.
Evolving Markets vendors receive access to a custom-designed portal in Schooley Mitchell’s intranet, allowing for direct communication with our consultants across North America. Participating vendors maintain their own listings, so you will be secure in knowing the information being provided is correct, complete and delivered in real-time. The program is structured to save vendors both money and time by utilizing our consultants to deliver information to the ultimate business user – our clients.
Evolving Markets also allows telecom vendors exclusive access to our Bid Board. Schooley Mitchell consultants prepare RFIs, RFQs and RFPs on behalf of our clients and then post to the board. In turn, vendors have an opportunity to bid on – and be awarded – the projects.
Knowledge Enhancement
Vendors drive the marketplace, and are the best source of information for our consultants. Service providers in all our expense categories are invited to present educational conference calls or webinars to our consultants through our Knowledge Enhancement program. This allows vendors to share information on current topics of interest, along with their own offerings. Presentations are usually an hour long and include time for a question period.
These sessions act as a bridge between the research and development capabilities of participating vendors to the end user via our consultants. Major benefits of the program include:
- Participating vendors can push new information directly to the marketplace through our consultants.
- Our consultants are always fully educated about new developments, products and services.
- Our business clients are the ultimate beneficiary through our knowledge of new opportunities and options to help increase their bottom lines.
