“An outside-In perspective by an Si2 Expert allowed me to see for myself how my parts revenue growth and profitability problem was
really due to a poor internal transfer pricing policy. This enabled my to quickly take action and to contribute to the 5% revenue
increase I needed to make my plan this year ”
Business Development Manager – National Service Division, Global Industrial OEM
“With support from Si2 On-Demand, we were able to deliver an investment proposal and business plan in a third of the time and a fraction of the
effort it would have taken us to do internally. This was only possible because the Si2 Expert understood our business, was very experienced and so
was able to articulate our ideas accurately. Si2 On-Demand helped us deliver a more compelling argument at a fraction of the real cost!”
Innovation Manager – Payment Services Provider
“By gaining new perspectives from Si2 Experts having a 1 on 1 with another Si2 client with similar challenges, I realised I had to change
the scope of my business in order to have a viable future. I was able to push my organisation and now we are developing support for a
completely new product line which could develop in excess of $10million/year
Regional Service Director – Global Automation OEM
“In almost real time, I was able to quickly gain information and insight about how to tackle a new market opportunity. No need to waste
time or create a big project”
Regional Vice President – Global Maintenance Solutions provider
“We used Si2 On-Demand to brainstorm bid strategy on a major contract opportunity, develop a comprehensive customer profile and
robust sales arguments. We were shortlisted and the Si2 Expert supported the negotiations and contract development process and
helped us understand and remedy risks. We closed on the deal with much more confidence”
