Founded in 2014, the company is led by Group Operations Director Stuart Steer and serves businesses across Wales and the West region of the United Kingdom.

The company delivers a broad managed IT portfolio organized around Managed IT Services as the core offering, with specialized modules including Network Solutions, Remote Working Solutions, Microsoft 365 integration, Cyber Security Solutions, and Backup and Disaster Recovery Solutions. Underlying technology is built on Microsoft-certified support for Windows and Mac networks, TeamViewer-based remote support, and VMware virtualization, complemented by resold infrastructure from HP and Cisco.

Go-to-market is sales-led and regionally focused: direct enquiries via website forms, phone (02920 348877), and email ([email protected]). Customer segments span SMBs across hospitality (restaurants and bars) up to large healthcare organizations requiring comprehensive IT oversight without maintaining full internal IT departments.
