With a tough economy constantly hovering overhead, businesses
are looking for solutions that help improve overall operational
expenses. Perfect Commerce, an eprocurement and esourcing solution
expert, and Verizon Wireless are working together to help
businesses with their cost-cutting initiatives. Using a strategic
Group Purchasing Organization (GPO), Perfect Commerce can
offer companies in the gas utility, water utility, electric
utility, oil and gas refinery or coal industries a substantial cost
savings on Verizon Wireless voice and data services as well as
select accessories. Non-Verizon clients may also be eligible for
these special incentives, provided they switch services to Verizon
Wireless.
Perfect Commerce is launching monthly e-communication campaigns
to educate its members on these special savings, as well as
wireless technology solutions that can help address a number of
business challenges. Over 135 new clients have taken advantage of
these custom offerings since the new campaign launch this past
July. Clients are catching on to the scent of savings and some have
started to see significant cost reductions.
Verizon and Perfect Commerce have identified and preapproved
thousands of companies for these special incentives. The GPO is a
strategic relationship that allows Verizon Wireless to drive
messaging to a targeted audience in the utilities space, while
allowing Perfect Commerce to drive value adding business solutions
to help address the business concerns of their members. For
companies to qualify, they must provide an energy service, such as:
electric/gas/water utilities, nuclear power, coal, pipelines or
energy co-ops. See if your company qualifies through our Group
Purchasing page.
The company information you provide to Perfect Commerce is
quickly reviewed to determine eligibility; once approved there are
a few effortless steps to complete the process. While the process
is automated, Perfect Commerce still offers customer support.
