What Storm Technologies does

Storm Technologies Ltd is a UK-headquartered, privately held IT infrastructure and services provider founded in 2000 (registered in England & Wales, Company Number 3998372) with approximately 220 employees and £130M+ annual turnover. The company serves corporate and public-sector organisations across 110 countries, anchored by its UK head office and 20,000 sq ft logistics centre in Watford, plus distribution hubs in Amsterdam and Austin, TX. Storm positions itself as a vendor-agnostic, top-tier accredited partner (Dell Titanium, Lenovo 360 Platinum, HPE Gold, Microsoft Gold, Cisco Premier, Apple Authorised Business) supplying hardware, software licensing, cloud, managed services, networking and security, professional services, server and storage, and end-user compute solutions.

Storm's technology differentiator is OnePortal, its proprietary in-house procurement portal providing access to 3 million+ products with punchout integration to major e-procurement platforms including Coupa, ServiceNow, SAP, SAP Ariba, Oracle and Jagger, supporting ordering, quoting, real-time KPI data and analytics. A second proprietary capability is the Sustainable IT Programme, a closed-loop device lifecycle service (collection, configuration lab, grading, wiping, re-imaging, warehousing up to 90 days, disposal) claimed to deliver up to 90% cost savings versus new hardware.

Storm earns revenue across five streams: hardware sales (Dell, HP, Lenovo, Cisco, Microsoft, Apple), managed services (24/7 service desk, patching, monitoring, device hardening, virtual IT manager), professional services (design, security assessment, implementation, deployment, field engineering), software licensing (consultation, optimisation, compliance, audits), and sustainable IT/refurbishment services. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales, channel partnerships with major vendors, and the self-serve OnePortal procurement experience. Pricing is quote-based and tailored to customer requirements, typically structured around multi-year contracts.
