“BSG has enabled Marie Curie to obtain the best value for money from its technology investment. As a charity it is critical that every ‘£’ spent on IT offers more than a ‘£’ back in benefit. The BSG approach, which begins with aligning IT to business goals, has created the strategy and infrastructure to allow us to achieve this” - Peter Crutchfield, IT Director, Marie Curie Cancer Care

Sector: healthcare
Solution: support

“BSG’s experience and reliability has proved important in allowing Moorfields to fulfil its main role as a national centre for ophthalmic care. Any system downtime means lost revenue and poor patient service – our partnership with BSG allows us to focus on what we’re best at and not on making sure our technology is always available” - Barrie Winnard, IT Director, Moorfields Eye Hospital

Sector: engineering
Solution: aligning business with technology

“When BSG was initially introduced to Mott MacDonald, BSG did not propose a solution, BSG was the only consultancy to ask “What do you want to achieve from your technical solution?” BSG allowed the Group IT Services division to propose a solution that creates real business value and has buy-in from the executive board.” - John Gill, Group IT Director, Mott MacDonald

Sector: manufacturing
Solution: support

“The project was implemented in record time and is already justifying our investment. What we have with INFINET2000 (Nissan’s dealer network) is probably the most technologically advanced, cost effective dealer network in Europe. Without BSG we could not have implemented INFINET2000”. - Peter Walton, Nissan’s European Dealer Manager

Parrott, Vice President, London Technical Services, Northern Trust
