    I'm looking for a large site build +mobile site built on the Magento enterprise platform. I'm in the process of sending out an RFI for the project but am struggling to find established agencies with any form of pedigree in delivering successful projects. I will want to speak to references and this seems to be a big problem for the couple I've found.

    Any serious suggests would be really appreciated.

    Hi Rodney

    I guess the obvious route is to ask Magento themselves for recommendations. Have you already tried that?

    BTW, I assume you know that eBay has acquired Magento (http://www.magentocommerce.com/blog/comments/ebay-agrees-to-acquire-magento/) and eBay has also acquired GSI Commerce (http://www.gsicommerce.com/news_events/news_releases/ebay_inc._completes_acquisition_of_gsi_commerce/).

    Have a look at GSI's global marketing services group and who they also own - http://www.gsicommerce.com/global_marketing_services/. I don't know exactly what the planned strategy is but clearly there are agencies (http://www.trueaction.com/) in that group who can provide services to support Magento which will become a 'sister' company.

    Hi Rodney,

    You could do much worse than speak to Duncan Bradford, MD of Kuki Media - very experienced Magento partner developer based in Nottingham.

    Kuki tel number is: 0115 941 7213.

    He has built sites for Biffa, & ATS Euromaster amongst many others.

    hi there,

    We're currently working on a Magento Enterprise implementation for a major UK wine distributor. If you'd like to chat just get in touch.

    In terms of pedigree we've been going for nearly 12 years but I think our case studies should speak for themselves. :-)

    Hi Rodney,

    I need to declare a distant interest here - Ashley mentions above the GSI and eBay link - so e-Dialog is also part of this family. But suggest you could also check out London based Sessions at www.sessiondigital.com
