About us

Due to our recurring need, Simms maintains a 3-month stock holding to ensure continuity of supply, protecting Safety Shield from fluctuations in availability further down the chain. This gives us huge comfort and trust in Simms as a key supplier.

They are a trustworthy supply partner who understands our needs and is geared up to meet our requirements.

Simms service is fantastic; Sam is always super-fast to respond with orders typically turned around within less than 24hrs!

We’ve had some fun along the way, too!

It can be quite difficult to find partnerships with distributors where they really understand and care about your business needs. A lot of distributors are just box shifting, so we prefer to work with independents.

It’s about quicker responses and turnaround times for our business, which helps us have an edge. I have found that working with Simms has been very easy in that they are very responsive and agile, so they can get things done for us very quickly. This means a lot to us as many of our customers require rapid turnaround times on our workstations and servers.

The benefit of working with Simms is having a great account manager like Jason. With their support, we have managed to close some serious major deals for large installs.

We like our distributors to be fast-acting and flexible. Simms demonstrates this time and time again, and nothing is ever too much trouble.

Simms has put us in touch with Micron, which has been hugely beneficial to our business recently, as well as strengthening our bond with Kingston. One of the biggest benefits of working with Simms is their flexibility, and they just ‘get it’.

There aren’t many distributors (in our experience) that aren’t massively weighed down by ‘systems’. Simms just do what they say, when they say it. We’re always confident our needs will be more than met.

Simms' passion for memory really stands out. They have a deep knowledge, unparalleled vendor relationships and a reliability that makes them a trusted and valuable partner in every project we complete together.

With Simms, we have better and more consistent stock availability, which has given increased turnaround times for our customers and therefore allowed us to both retain and win new business.

We really value the stock availability and their customer service, having a dedicated account manager on hand who we can speak to easily.

Before meeting Simms, most of our supply chain was based on JIT supply. Simms took all that stress away, providing a streamlined service of holding stock and pricing, allowing us to provide custom machines quickly and with consistent pricing.

Before working with Simms we struggled to have easy access to our vendor supported pricing, as other disties kept us waiting for quote responses, which in our market can easily lose you the opportunity.

Simms helps us by providing weekly price lists, never go missing and our account manager responds within minutes at all times.

Their pricing is sharp, but the biggest single benefit is the level of stock holding available next day, which allows us to back-to-back order and build and ship solutions within customer expectations.
