Forth communication aim to provide our clients with the most secure, professional and cost effective communication needs. Whether it be for their mail, email or data, we can help them maximise their mailing potential. We therefore help our clients build long-term relationships with their customers. As a result, we allow them to focus on the message they are communicating while we do the rest.
Forth communication was founded in Haymarket, Edinburgh in 1991. We spent the first 9 years building our reputation as the preferred supplier when managing Direct Mail projects.
In 2000, we opened a data processing and production facility in Bangor, Northern Ireland. Because of this, we can now provide uniquely detailed services to clients’ that average mailing house cannot fulfil.
Providing impeccable attention to detail when working with data our reputation grew as data experts with the ability to provide a full mailing service.
Developing Forth communication’s first online statement viewer in 2003 enabled our clients to provide a digital service for their customers. As the years went on we developed our skills and expertise. We managed our first Part VII mailing in 2006, proceeding to complete five Part VII mailings in 2011.
With our client list growing, from 2012 we have invested greatly in developing our production facilities with top industry laser printing and enclosing machinery.
Since then we’ve continued to invest heavily in our data processing and production departments here at Forth communication. This will enable us to provide a hybrid mail production service in the heart of Northern Ireland from our Bangor production facility.
Whether your needs are bulk mailings or daily mail, individual letters sent ad hoc or digital communication through email or web portals, we can help you. We manage, produce and mail 40+ million items of post a year for a wide range of clients.There are very few businesses we’ve come across that we can’t help. Take a look at some interesting facts about us:
ISO 27001 is an international standard for Data Security. It is the best practice specification helping businesses and organisations throughout the world develop Information Security Management Systems (ISMS).
Data Security is of most noteworthy importance when sending a mailing; this accreditation shows we have the expertise to provide you with the most secure facilities when managing data.
Information Governance relates to the way organisations ‘process’ or handle information. The IG Toolkit Certification is an assessment against the Department of Health Information Governance policies and standards.
Gaining this accreditation we have shown our ability to manage and keep secure data of our clients working within healthcare or under the direction of the Department of Health.
The Accreditation provides us with access to the latest software tools to aid in the development of our software solutions and extensive training programmes ensuring our staff are up to date with the latest technology.
With this accreditation we demonstrate we can deploy, recommend, sell and service the latest Microsoft technology to meet customer demand.
ISO 9001 is the internationally recognised Quality Management System (QMS) standard. It is awarded and implemented into a business with focus on continuous improvement and streamlining of procedures.
When dealing with the complexities that come with intricate data, it is of the upmost importance that the procedures set in place are as effective as possible. We pride ourselves on the adherence to this accreditation.
Recruiting and developing young people is a great way to develop a more dynamic and productive workforce and can help tackle issues such as an ageing workforce, skills gaps and shortages, talent development, succession planning and customer insight.
Here at Forth we know our young people are the future of our business. This is therefore why we are proud holders of the Investors in Young People Bronze Good Practice Award.
