improved quality and/or customer convenience.” The National Business Awards have been described by the Chancellor of the Exchequer as the UK's "Business Oscars," and are awarded across five UK regions. epyx has won the prize for the Midlands and East of England. The company has also been named in the Sunday Times/Microsoft Tech Track 100 survey for the last 2 years in succession. Established 5 years ago and based in Meriden (Warwickshire, UK) epyx produces the 1link range of fleet e-commerce platforms, now in use by more than 10,000 motor dealers and fleets representing two million vehicles.
Greg Connell, managing director at epyx, said: "In a relatively short space of time, we have created an e-commerce standard that is by far the most successful in the motor industry. It is very pleasing to receive independent recognition of this kind, and it reflects very well on what the team here has achieved.” epyx has launched two new 1link e-commerce platforms this year — 1link Disposal Network and 1link Hire Network — to sit alongside its established 1link Service Network, 1link Vehicle Network and 1link Vehicle Relicensing products. Connell continued: "We now have a 1link product in place for every major phase of a vehicle's life, creating a complete cradle-to-grave e-commerce concept. Our aim over the next year is to create acceptance and increase usage of our new products and to start taking 1link into key overseas markets." |
