- Veteran of the Recruitment Communications Industry selects Concept for his new Internal Communications Consultancy, The Loop -

Chessington, UK – October 10th, 2011 – Concept Integrated Systems, developers of the agency management system, Concept™, has today announced Steve Kaufmann a well known figure from the recruitment communications industry and now managing director of The Loop, has selected Concept to underpin the agency's growth. The Loop is a fast growing, global internal communications consultancy headquartered in Bristol, and with a global client base.

Steve has worked with Concept at his former agency Kingsway, (acquired by Tribal) and has a strong working knowledge of what the system can offer. So when he came to equip The Loop with a financial and account management system he knew it was the obvious fit. "Concept was designed by agency people for agency people and it is so much more than a replacement for an accounts package and spreadsheets. It is a complete, integrated agency management system," comments Steve. "It is a very powerful complete agency system that does more than we currently need but gives us all the room for growth and to satisfy the demands of our global workers."

Steve adds, "We are a growing global consultancy and Concept will deliver the financial visibility and job management that we need. Our team can access the system wherever they are based geographically and because it is a Hosted offering we don't need to worry about infrastructure and IT management headaches.

We know the Concept team and we know how responsive they are so this was an easy decision for me."

The Loop (Leadership – Organisation – Operations – Performance) is founded on a basic principle: that people want to succeed and its job is helping them and the organisation they work for. This positive attitude is reflected at every level of project delivery: from the global vision...to the local strategy...to the engaged individual. The Loop offers a broad range of services including vision and strategy, communications planning, communications delivery, and insight and measurement. Its enviable base of clients includes Zurich, Lloyds Banking Group, Rolls Royce, BP, Tetra Laval (Sidel) and General Electric.

"It is a great endorsement of our product and the quality of our service to be chosen by Steve and the team at The Loop," said Ian Tomlins, managing director at Concept. "We worked with Steve for a number of years in recruitment communications and we look forward to doing that once again and underpinning the successful growth of the Loop in the months and years to come."
