#01THE CHALLENGE

Ashdale had been running on ageing IBM servers that were well past their expected life expectancy. The problem with ageing and disparate systems and software is they often become expensive on not only time but also money. The Ashdale Directors contacted FUEL as they required an IT partner to upgrade not only their servers but also their infrastructure so their business could grow, and offer their own customers excellence in their service.

#02KEY BUSINESS BENEFITS

FUEL worked alongside the Ashdale project manager Paul Ford to bring this new installation and upgrade in on budget and time. FUEL’s expertise ensured that the Ashdale solution was perfectly tailored to Ashdales vendor software requirements and systems. This was to ensure installation for optimum productivity, in a timeframe that caused the least amount of disruption, helping Ashdale to eliminate inefficiencies that were costing their business time, money and customers.

 

#03SOLUTION

FUEL’s flexibility and systems knowledge helped to complete the Ashdale install and upgrade without any hassle to them, and this firmly cemented the partnership between FUEL and Ashdale. The Ashdale system and infrastructure update and installation used cutting edge virtualised server technology, Office 365 and Microsoft Advanced Threat Protection designed to add business value to Ashdale and enhance their customer experience, all while reducing operational costs.

 

Working with FUEL provides a level of respect, confidence and consistency that is hard to find these days. FUEL engineers know the critical importance of knock-on effects of program alterations and never take the easy option, rather what is best for us as a fully satisfied customer. FUEL’s skill and capability has made them our one-stop-shop for all our IT support requirements.
