It’s all about Partnerships!

Well, not quite “all” but here at ISL we have always sought and nurtured relationships with business partners who operate in the same markets we do.

Our new subsidiary in Germany has, within the first year of operation, established a rewarding partnership with a key supplier of software for the waste & recycling collection sector (https://sensis.de/). ISL’s route optimisation software offering bolsters their portfolio strengthening their wastemanagement software proposition.

In the UK we partner with companies like WhiteSpace Waste Management Software and, more recently, Yotta (recently acquired by Causeway) who have an asset & jobs management system called Alloy. Causeway have also introduced ISL’s route optimisation solutions, primarily RouteSmart-for-ArcGIS, to their client base. Another partner is VWS who have developed a software system primarily aimed at private sector waste & recycling companies. Their interest in the ISL route planning software suite is centred on RaaS (Routing-as-a-Service) – a cloud based service that is fully automated with data moved between systems via an API.

When it comes to public sector procurement, ISL has a mutually beneficial partnership with Bramble Hub with whom we recently won a route optimization deal at South Cambridgeshire Council. Bramble Hub is a a “thin-prime supplier” on many government procurement frameworks. These frameworks are provided by the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) and other providers, and give public sector customers the ability to purchase services and products in straightforward and cost-effective ways.

ISL’s has many routes to market. Partnerships are a key element in our successful sales strategy and, in 2023, we will be seeking and nurturing more. If you operate in our core markets and feel that route optimisation software and/or consultancy services would be of interest to your clients feel free to get in touch.
