Commerce Business Systems (CBS), IT and telecommunications solutions for businesses

Commerce Business Systems, known as CBS, is a British technology services and solutions company for organisations across various sectors. Its activity covers IT support, security, cloud services, document management, VOIP telephony and the supply and leasing of printing and photocopying equipment. The company presents itself as a specialist in copying, printing, scanning, IT and telecommunications for the business environment.

Background and structure

CBS was founded in 2002 by John Green, its managing director, with the stated aim of building a business focused on customer relationships and personalised service. Since its creation, the company has developed a team of more than 25 specialists across its offices in Bradford and Blackburn. Its head office in Bradford has an expanded technical service department that allows it to keep more than one hundred different types of toner in stock.

IT and security services

The IT support area is focused on maintaining fast and reliable systems that support the growth of client companies. In terms of security, CBS offers solutions applicable to Mac, Android, iPhone and server devices, with antivirus protection, Office 365 email and GDPR compliance. The company works in collaboration with the client: first it analyses their needs and then selects technology solutions from different manufacturers and suppliers, supporting the design, implementation and maintenance.

Cloud, document management and connectivity

Cloud services allow systems, databases, storage and networks to be integrated into one accessible private location, with the aim of protecting company data. Document management is presented as a response to the problems of losing or deleting documents, so that the organisation always knows where they are. The offering is completed with broadband services.

VOIP telephony and printing equipment

In telephony, CBS sells flexible VOIP systems for businesses of all sizes, designed to make, receive and log calls. The CallSwitch One app allows you to use the same number and extension as your work phone from your mobile, with plug-and-go functionality and call recording.

In printing, the company offers a range of models for the public and private sectors, both photocopiers and colour printers. The leasing of printing and photocopying equipment is tailored to each company's needs through total cost per page (TCP) formulas that seek to minimise expenditure. The proposal includes all-inclusive cost, bespoke quotes and a wide range of printers.

Office supplies and other services

CBS's online shop sells supplies and stationery, with ink and toner, paper, office furniture and other items. The company also offers office interior design services. Its solutions are segmented by workforce size: 1 to 10 employees, 11 to 50, 51 to 100 and more than 100 workers. The firm serves clients across Yorkshire and the whole of the United Kingdom, and has expanded its office services following the acquisition of ASK.
