Their engagement with financial institutions, public sector companies, manufacturing and distribution companies, educational institutions as well as Africa's burgeoning telcom industry has seen them deploying the region's most accomplished mission-critical data-centre infrastructures, large scale data networks as well as infrastructure software and security services. They have led the regional IT industry for a number of years, often deploying the largest infrastructure projects East & Central Africa's largest Unix and Windows Server clusters, the largest Storage systems, the first disaster recovery solution, the largest deployment of Microsoft infrastructure solutions, while also sub Sahara Africa's first campus-wide wireless data network. They've built these solutions in collaboration with globally leading vendors such as HP as an Enterprise partner, NetApp as a business partner, Microsoft as their first Gold partner, Citrix as a Solutions partner, Veritas as VAR and Cisco as their first premier partner. As they continued to review their value proposition to these enterprises, they improved their service delivery model by certifying their processes across the ISO 9002 standards from Nemko, the dutch certification council. Over the years, they began to view their engagement with their customers as a critical element of their execution infrastructure. They recognized the growing role of IT as an operational component of their customer's business strategy and success. An enabling capability that will eventually assist them in their business strategies, including collaborative product development, consumer-driven supply chain, multi-tiered channel management and customer services…etc. Services that are actually impossible to execute without the support of underlying business applications, data repositories, and workflow systems, along with the basic networks, servers, storage, and other infrastructure they require.  They are today, a dynamic IT service delivery company that help their customers smartly leverage their information infrastructure, to reduce costs, improve efficiency and impact business benefits. They see that without understanding this fundamental requirement they cannot effectively serve their customers. So while they have evolved as a successful business solutions vendor, they have strengthened their IT infrastructure service offerings tied to a world-class service delivery framework.
