CSES FORMATION – For Small Business
CSES International was formed by Michael Relph in the fall of 1991 as an IT solutions company to help the small business owner utilize the up and coming database POS software that could run on a PC. With such a powerful tool then and now it was not difficult to demonstrate that it could help to provide significant savings in; inventory costs, customer retention, direct marketing, and give an accurate customer buying history to determine where the business was making money. As a result CSES has served over 200 retail, warehouse, and service organizations on an international scale. For many operations CSES helped to provide a much higher rate of return on the bottom-line, and for others saved their business from failure, and yet others a very successful startup.

SMALL BUSINESS – Owner Empowerment
Owner Empowerment for the small business owner is about having all the business tools needed to run their operation looking ahead. The fewer the tools the better. The opposite of empowerment is like trying to drive a car backwards up a dangerous mountain pass (with no guardrails) through the rearview mirror at a dangerous rate of speed.

No matter what the economic climate, with the right tools a business owner can make the appropriate adjustments to their operations in order to meet customer demand and provide the right products and services at the right time. With such a tool set a business owner can confidently move ahead and watch their business prosper.

What are the tools of empowerment?

SMALL BUSINESS – Tools of Empowerment

The key tools of empowerment are simple in scope.

#1 a comprehensive understanding of your cash flow and disposition in real time coupled with having the financial tools to make crucial decisions work.

#2 real-time information about your business in order to understand where and how you are making money, and where you are not and what you have to do in order to magnify your successes and purge where you are not.

#3 high-tech merchant account processing performed on the web, or your cel phone, or your PDA not only gives you real-time reporting of all transactions in your organization, it will create 4 to 5 new revenue streams at no cost to you and will reduce your back-office costs up to 80%.

*** INFORMATION IS KING ***

CSES’ core expertise will help the business owner purchase and implement a technical solution that will be cost effective and provide the information needed to meet the business objectives discussed in an introductory analysis of where the business is today and where the owner would like to take it.

*** READY CASH CLEARS THE WAY FOR PLANNED SUCCESS ***

In the end leadership at CSES International would like the opportunity to show you the business owner how your vision for success can be played out even in a very challenging economic climate.

CSES Supporting Large Corporations and Government Agencies
In parallel with working with the small business enterprise CSES has over 30 years of experience (since 1979) with large corporations and government agencies, assisting them by providing state of the art technology and creative strategic business direction. The core of those strategies include process improvement, quality and environmental program development, in-depth business and financial analysis for companies looking to purchase another, large-scale contract, program, and project management, radically new Intranet and Extranet Web-Site Designs and Concepts, IT Operational establishment using models such as ITIL in order to increase quality, stability, and reduce costs.

CSES Supporting Minority Company Development
Another parallel since the mid-90’s through associations with Ford Motor Company’s Minority Technical Assistance Program and through Detroit Home-Town great Willie Horton, CSES was/is invited to assist many of the Ford’s Tier One Minority Suppliers to implement technical projects that the supplier may not afford due to their size, so Ford paid ½ of the bill. For CSES those projects included Quality and Environmental Systems Development, implementing B2B over ANX, IT Infrastructure Design, Installation, and Support, Document Management, and Web-Site Development to name a few.

CSES Supporting Manufacturing – Auto Suppliers Turning Government
That journey taken with Mr. Horton led to working the Michigan Minority Business Development Council and the Michigan Senate with respect to Manufacturing. For those Minority Manufacturing Businesses was asked to speak and train those owners how to capture government grants and contracts. Several others asked CSES to develop Strategic Business Plans in order to start or expand their business. Yet others asked CSES to get involved with the political engines of the State of Michigan, Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb Counties, and the City of Detroit as a Strategist for Innovation in the areas of Manufacturing, Alternative Energy, Energy Efficiency, Education, and Property Tax Management.

CSES Supporting Community – Those who could not defend themselves
It was in the area of Property Tax Management that in 2004 pulled off one of the most significant political feats in Michigan where the Wayne County Treasurer was held back from illegally foreclosing on more that 22,000 properties mostly owned by Senior Citizens. The fact remains that all elected political officials associated with the City of Detroit from the city, county, state, and federal government, to include judges, lawmakers, law enforcement, policy makers, etc etc, all voted simultaneously on a resolution to delay the foreclosure process long enough so all property owners could be lawfully notified of their tax obligation and to have them pay it immediately. In only 30 days that number went from 22,000+ to 3,005 saving Wayne County 100’s of millions in potential lawsuits. Additionally that night over 300 attorneys came prepared to help solve outstanding cases and with their help along with all the attending judges over 300 cases were solved in only 2 hours time. This is PROOF that if our elected officials all pull together and work as a team, much can be accomplished in short order.
