Poole: Blue Chip achieves record year following investment
Leading IT specialist Blue Chip has recorded an eighth consecutive year of growth, with turnover for 2013/2014 at £22 million and staff numbers increasing to over 175.
Managing director Richard Cook said: “We have worked hard in recent years to take the business forward, investing in infrastructure for a new generation of IT services and expanding our business services further. By default this has led to the formalisation of business processes to provide consistency and efficiency at an even higher level, with both customers and staff clearly understanding the above-industry expectations and standards of our award-winning service and delivery.”
Underpinning this has been the investment of a further £1m in the best available datacentre capacity and infrastructure at Vodafone’s Tier 3 datacentres in Leeds and Uxbridge, expansion of its Leeds operation and a restructure of the account management team to provide dedicated, specialist support to SME, corporate and enterprise customers, relevant to their size.
Blue Chip customer Stuart Thomas, client services director at First Choice, said: “Over the past couple of years we have found Blue Chip to be responsive and technically competent which, in today’s market, is high praise indeed. They have worked hard to ensure that we remain a satisfied customer and can be relied on to provide considered and skilled responses to challenging and changing technical requirements.”
