Information technology can be a key weapon in your competitive arsenal. It’s much too important to be delegated to programmers. Your IT spending should be driven by business strategy, not technology fads.

At IRCG, we show our clients how to wring the most out of their existing IT investment and how to implement new technology wisely. Our consultants may have true “geek” credentials, but they are, first and foremost, experts in the business of distribution. We can quickly assess the operational and organizational environment in which your technology must perform, as well as your specific IT capabilities and infrastructure.

Our approach is to educate our clients so that they can make wise decisions. Where appropriate, we provide critical development and implementation support to ensure that financial objectives are achieved. Our business model is not based on billing out teams of programmers or business analysts.

Some examples of recent engagements:

• We designed the business model and technological architecture for a major distributor association's e-commerce website. This site is currently handling over $2B in annual sales transactions.
• When a major client was prepared to invest millions of dollars in new ERP software, we showed him how to achieve the same benefits by improving operational practices instead.
• We designed and implemented a web portal for the sales force of a multi-billion dollar industrial products distributor. This tool gives the salesmen a single view of their accounts from disparate systems, drives accountability by tracking their performance against goals, and provides collaboration with sales support staff.

IRCG is recognized throughout the distribution industry for its expertise in the practical application of technology. We offer services ranging from a technology "bootcamp" for executives to full strategy development.
