Case Study
Northern Disposal Services are a waste management company operating from two physical sites, the main head office is located in Mirfield and the secondary site is in Rochdale. Both sites are fully maned with operational staff. Their current IT Infrastructure has been in place for around 5/6 years and has done well, however started to slow down affecting performance and efficiency of the business which limited potential growth.
Just before the application for the Digital Growth Voucher the main head office invested in a leased line to see if this would improve any speed issues, however it was apparent that the fundamental issues where with the physical equipment itself.
Investing in a new IT infrastructure gave Northern Disposal Services the abilities to improve turn around time for quotes and proposals giving the business a competitive edge when dealing with both prospects and customers which lead to growth and creation of new jobs.
The refreshed equipment included a new bespoke server, the newest version of Windows 2019 and upgrading all their current virtual machines to Windows Server 2019. They also upgraded all the VoIP handsets to improve efficiency remotely and in the office as well as purchasing a powerful laptop to improve remote working. Northern Disposal Services now have access to technology such as Microsoft Azure, offsite backups, remote apps and one-drive integration.
