Credit Control & Receivables Management — CICCWORLD
Credit In Control Corporation (2003–2012)

There’s a curious misconception often found in the corridors of business: that credit management is somehow very dull. That endless phone calls, e-mails, and ever more strident letters of intent are tedious — more akin to the office cleaner tidying up at the end of the day than to the bright-eyed sales executive closing yet another deal.

But how muddled that thinking is.
It would be a very odd farmer indeed who planted the corn seed and then forgot to reap the harvest.

In truth, credit management is not only vital — it can also be fun.

Unlikely, but true. And that’s because CICCWORLD, partnering with the UK Institute of Credit Management (ICM)— Europe’s largest credit management organisation (and second largest globally), formed some 70 years ago — brought a wealth of experience in e-learning and interaction to the table. Suddenly, the supposedly dusty corner of the business universe is alive with online education, testing, tracking and performance evaluation. Monitoring, reporting, encouraging, supporting — the Web 2.0 paradigm brought to bear on this vital discipline, tailored to individual employees and entire companies alike.



So successful was the partnership of CICCWORLD and the ICM — working together as ICM Online Services — that the flagship ICMOS website was officially adopted by Lord Mandelson’s Business and Enterprise department as the voice of UK government.

Add to this a client list that includes HMRC, British Gas, Shell, National Australia Bank, HSBC, BT, and PWC, and the picture emerges of an accomplished, versatile source of advice and product development.

Delivered as a suite of websites, online guides and training modules, active tools and screening, the ICMOS strategies for credit management — underpinned by the software innovation of CICCWORLD — put your cash flow exactly where it should be:

In profit. And in control.

Management, control, analysis, online engagement and e-learning in key business disciplines — essential to your company’s success.
