Who We Are

A long-standing business relationship stemming back from early 2000s when working to reduce company expenditures using RFT and RFQ processes. I stumbled across the brain behind this highly sophisticated and advanced platform – Peter Hall – and have watched and admired his progression even further ever since.

I believe there is no better time than now to make significant changes in the Supply Chain Management simply because of the increasing demands and complexities being placed on everyone involved throughout the lifetime of any purchased product.

The range of products offered in the 4links SMARTplatform streamlines all of it into one efficient system.
