BIS is one of London’s largest specialist datacentre owner operators and providers of IT managed services. We aim to reduce our clients’ IT costs and improve their end-user’s experience through award winning managed colocation, managed networks, managed servers and storage, managed applications, professional services and first class support.
With head offices in the City of London and revenues for 2011 approaching £20 million, BIS is small enough to provide personal service but large enough to recognise the importance of structured procedures. Our phenomenal growth is testament to our relentless focus on client satisfaction as most our new business comes from referrals or existing customers widening their portfolio with us.
In 2006 we acquired AboveNet Communications UK Ltd, a division of US AboveNet Inc. This significant investment enabled BIS to grow its portfolio of datacenters and was our first step towards owning the datacentre infrastructure. Today, BIS manages over 50,000 square feet of flexible data centre space and provides managed services from 5 prime Central London locations.
BIS is vendor neutral, which means we always put our clients interests first. Our staff are continuously recognised as experts in designing and delivering complex infrastructure solutions to highest standards. We are one of only a small handful of UK companies to be awarded Cisco MSCP "Powered” status in 2009 for MPLS, VPN, Managed Internet Services and Metro Ethernet connectivity services and have earned this designation through independent audit each year since its inception in 2009. In addition, BIS is one of only five Colt Gold Partners and one of only six UK DataCore Storage Virtualisation Gold Partners.
BIS understands that every business is unique and we have tailored our managed services to meet the demands of several hundred clients across a wide range of sectors including insurance, finance, legal and media. Clients include the property giant Cluttons, international insurer Catlin, and the NHS Confederation. Shipping is still important to us and we have provided global, low latency managed network services to several shipping brokers including Clarksons. Let your business benefit from our experience and contact us today on 0207 861 7814 or sales@bisdc.co.uk.
