The new offices represent a significant investment by the Admiral Group for these three expanding divisions. The IT Services division helps businesses with IT support, hardware and software purchase, project planning and installation, back-up and disaster recovery plus network connections. Admiral IT Services achieved Microsoft Gold partner status in 2008 and is also a HP Gold partner. The division has achieved great success with sales growing by 100% over the last twelve months and is looking to double turnover again in the next twelve months. Admiral IT Services has experienced considerable success with its clients who have been implementing new Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 solutions, with Admiral investing to develop its expertise in this area.
Both the Telephony Systems and Photocopier and Printer Solutions divisions have also reported growth in a turbulent market over the last 12 months, with the Telephony division reporting 12% growth year-on-year. Admiral Group has achieved sales growth through the application of its group-wide sales strategy designed to help customers benefit from multiple product and service offerings all promising high standards of value and service. In addition to the investment in the new London offices, Admiral Group has launched dedicated web sites for both its IT and Telephony divisions with new web sites at www.admiral-it.com and www.admiraltelephony.com respectively.
Paul Allen, managing director – communications business, Admiral Group, commented:
“We have seen our IT Services business expand dramatically over the past year which is in line with our sales strategy that we developed a couple of years ago. We recognised early on that to grow in today’s challenging telephony market, we needed to embrace IT technology and understand it fully. We believe that this expertise has added considerable value to the advice we can offer our customer, and this expertise has really set us apart from our competitors.”
