Credit Managers who manage large or multiple ledgers have
come to realise that they need to use specialist software to
achieve or maintain performance improvement – be that risk,
collections or both.
For many Credit Managers a key question is where to start.
How do you examine and evaluate the options? How and when
do you start the budgeting process? What are the steps?
Co-pilot has advised on credit management software for a
number of years. We have good knowledge of the available
solutions, what’s good, how they work and what type of
solution best fits given situations. We combine this with
considerable experience of credit management Best Practice
so that you can pull everything together into one place and
achieve a flexible and sustainable position going forward.
We work with you through a structured evaluation process
which is designed to enable you to have a clear view of
what you can achieve going forward, what is practicable, the
business case implications, the preferred supplier(s) and what
the implementation process would sensibly look like (in our
opinion, there is no such thing as “Plug and play”).

Safe’s unique approach is centred on changing the
perception of the credit control function from a series of
reactive processes to proactive ones. Credit controllers are
traditionally regarded as an essential element in business
to chase late payments and respond to customer queries.
Safe Credit Control has taken the concepts of customer
relationship management (CRM) and applied it to the credit
control function, providing a softer, service orientated team of
customer service representatives.
