A Glasgow-based company with a reputation for excellence
and innovation has been recognised as Small to Medium-Sized
Business of the Year at this year’s prestigious National
Business Awards for Scotland.
The National Business Awards, dubbed the ‘business
Oscars’ by Prime Minister Gordon Brown, is an independent
programme recognising success, innovation and ethics across
all industries and embraces businesses of all sizes.
As winners of the AXA Small to Medium-Sized Business of the
Year Award, BiP Solutions’ entry impressed the judging
panel on the basis of the company’s significant growth
in turnover and profit and its innovative approach to its
market sector.
BiP Solutions was established in 1984 to facilitate business
between the public and private sectors. What began as the
provision of public sector contract information in its Contrax
Weekly magazine has since developed into a comprehensive
total procurement solution, embracing the latest in electronic
media delivery systems along with events and consultancy services.
BiP Solutions is now recognised as a leading provider of
procurement solutions and market intelligence services, with
thousands of public and private sector clients in the UK,
Europe and beyond. It also provides events management, accreditation
and consultancy services, and has used its knowledge and experience
on behalf of a range of high-profile clients, including the
Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform
(as supplier of the national lower-value contracts portal
www.supply2.gov.uk),
the Ministry of Defence and the Home Office, as well as a
number of Scottish public sector organisations. International
clients include the European Defence Agency, the United Arab
Emirates Army and Kenya’s Ministry of Education.
Ron Burges, CEO of BiP Solutions, said: “BiP Solutions
is delighted to have won the Small to Medium-Sized Business
of the Year category. We are pleased that the judges have
recognised the success of a Glasgow-based media company on
a national and international stage, and in a market sector
where innovation and service delivery are paramount.
“Winning this Award demonstrates the quality of
BiP’s people and its services, and is a great recognition
of the achievements of the company and its entire staff.”
