Change and evolution is a key requirement for any successful business model. You must stay in tune with the services and products your clients want and need and continually fine tune your approach to the market.

In keeping with this philosophy, IBT has taken an aggressive approach by redesigning its Integrated Services Group into a more customer-centric service offering named Contract Services & Support. Contract Services & Support is the product of years of business experience and offers creative avenues to problem-solving, cost-savings generation, inventory control options, technical expertise and vendor partner management.

The current business climate requires most of us to perform several job functions at one time, which may lead to lost opportunities and waste. IBT's Contract Services & Support team can work with you to alleviate some of the burden and make a real difference in your company's profitability.

While we remain very flexible in how we approach a problem or opportunity, we also have many proven solutions that we can provide. Some of these solutions are fee-based, and others can be offered at no charge to your company with base monthly MRO product purchase requirements.

A small sampling of some of our Contract Services & Support offerings include:

• IBT can assist your company achieve your Minority Set Aside credits through a strategic partnership with certifications of WBE, SDB, HUBZone, HUB, DBE and woman-owned maintenance supplier.
• Supply-Express brings inventory control to any part of your facility through various modes of product vending with normal average savings of a minimum of 5%.
• VMI-Express can increase your inventory accuracy, eliminate stock outs and expedited orders, reduce fulfillment costs, and increase your return on your assets.

Numerous creative and detailed solutions are available to you and your company through IBT Contract Services & Support. For more information please contact Phil Pope, General Manager Contract Services & Support, at 913-428-2812.
