The service
WHAT IS IT PROCUREMENT?
Managed IT procurement is a strategic approach where an external service provider oversees the acquisition of technology assets and services for an organisation. This includes identifying needs, sourcing, negotiating, purchasing and managing the lifecycle of IT hardware, software, products and services.
The aim is to streamline the procurement process, reduce costs, ensure compliance with regulations and enhance efficiency by leveraging the expertise and resources of the managed service provider. By outsourcing IT procurement, companies can focus on their core activities while ensuring they have the latest, most effective technology solutions in place to support their operations.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ: Managed IT procurement
What is managed IT procurement?
We can act as a one-stop shop for all of your IT procurement needs. Do you need a laptop, cable, mouse or a hundred new wi-fi access points for that event you are putting on or the new theatre? We can help. We have partnerships with multiple tier-one vendors, including Cisco, Microsoft and Fortigate, and access a wide array of equipment and software via our distribution partners.
Can I buy my own kit?
You can, but why would you want to? Let us take care of your requirements, handle suppliers, warranties, delivery and setup.
Can you supply literally anything?
In theory, yes. In reality, we supply a set of vetted and supportable items we know you’ll love. If you need something specific or customised, we can do that too — but that takes a little longer and is likely to cost a little more.
I'm not a managed IT service customer. Can you still quote me?
We can! We will need to work out how much of something you want to source and what it is. Sometimes we may just refer you directly to a partner if we cannot help.
