About Supplier Synergy — Independent IT Supplier Consultancy

I’m Ian Callens, the independent consultant behind Supplier Synergy. After more than 35 years in the IT services industry, I’ve learnt that choosing the right supplier is rarely straightforward, whether you’re a start-up, a regional company, or a national enterprise.

Too often, businesses find themselves dealing with an endless stream of sales calls, unclear pricing, and conflicting information. My role is to remove that noise and connect you directly with the supplier who’s the best fit for your needs, your budget, and your growth plans.

Much like a mortgage broker, my services are often at no direct cost to you, I’m usually paid by the supplier you choose. This allows you to benefit from expert market knowledge without adding to your overheads.

Working with Me Means

• Clarity and focus – One point of contact, instead of fielding multiple sales pitches.

• Trusted recommendations – Suppliers vetted for quality, reliability, and suitability for your scale of operations.

• Efficient decision-making – Shortlisted options that meet your technical and commercial requirements.

• Straight-talking advice – No unnecessary jargon, just honest guidance shaped by decades of industry insight.

My Goal

At Supplier Synergy, my goal is simple: to give every business from the local firm to the nationwide corporation, the confidence to make IT supplier decisions quickly, cost-effectively, and with complete peace of mind.
