i-Tel Group Sustainable Supply Chain Procurement

i-Tel Group is one of the UK’s leading indirect procurement specialists, covering all operational business purchasing requirements including IT hardware, office supplies, workplace furnishings and more.

They help organisations minimise their costs and carbon footprint, providing affordable and environmentally-friendly solutions for smart, sustainable business.

As the procurement process can be quite an abstract concept to explain with just words, i-Tel Group decided to commission a custom designed explainer animation that illustrates how beneficial i-Tel's services can be to potential clients. After some discussion and testing, we decided a mix of motion graphics with characters in business scenarios would best communicate i-Tel's key messages.

The animated video is used in sales meetings and in their digital marketing strategy.
