In partnership with E4 Computer Engineering, Centerprise worked and tested a number of relevant solutions in order to ascertain the best fit for CERN's vigorous requirements. Upon completion of testing and pricing, Centerprise presented two compliant solutions which met CERN's criteria and offered the best results from a performance-price perspective. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Centerprise's credentials were undisputed, given its reputation as an established systems integrator and a reseller of a wide array of manufacturers, possessing certifications from Intel, AMD, Microsoft, and other major vendors. This, in addition to the company's ability to demonstrate its robust Quality Management System, as evinced by its notable list of ISO certifications, led to Centerprise's being deemed an approved CERN supplier. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Consequently, Centerprise was awarded a contract by CERN to supply over 210,000 HEP-SPEC06<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 107%;"><sup>3</sup></span> which resulted in a total of 120 servers with a further order of 15 servers, all which had to be built, tested and shipped within 8 weeks of CERN's purchase order. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Centerprise is proud to declare its smooth completion of the delivery in advance of the required date, with an agreement to provide support for servers delivered to CERN over the next three years. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Centerprise HPC Systems Integrator Account Manager, Ramsey Razzak, said:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>"This is a prestigious contract win for Centerprise that validates our ability to build, configure and deliver computational equipment to highly-educated customers with specific configurations and strict deadlines."</strong> </div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="color: black; font-size: 11pt;"><strong><u>ARTICLE published by CRN Online Magazine</u></strong></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Centerprise is pushing deeper into the distribution space with a new dedicated brand and sales office in Telford.
The advent of 'Ci Distribution' will see Centerprise move beyond distributing just rugged devices and into the components and peripherals space.A new office in Telford dedicated to the brand has been established.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Jon Atherton, who joined Centerprise Group as commercial director in March, said the investment marks a big departure for the firm.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">"Centerprise as a business has been trading for 33 years, predominantly, as everyone knows, focused on MoD and defence – obviously that has expanded over the years to different verticals, it has had a distribution team for in excess of 14 years but purely focused on rugged devices and peripherals, and they've been very successful selling those to the channel. But it was never separate as a business in terms of the branding. Since I've come on board I felt it was important to split that off, hence why Ci Distribution was born."</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">New hires in Telford include (pictured from left to right) Steven Parker, Iain Gillogaley, Ben Davies and Darren Perks, the latter of whom worked with Atherton at Entatech. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Adding in the rugged device and peripherals team that works at Centerprise's Basingstoke HQ, Ci Distribution has a headcount of 12, up from five when Atherton joined. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">"We've got four people [in the Telford office] who have over 100 years' experience in IT distribution, who obviously know a lot of people at customers and suppliers," said Atherton.
<br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">"Our prime focus will be around components and peripherals and some unique products into the market. We are optimistic it will be a success."

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Leading retailer of high-end computer components and customised gaming PCs, YoYoTech, takes part in one of its most successful events to date. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">YoYoTech showcased its latest gaming PCs, various peripherals and monitors from a number of vendors, customised systems with a higher SP designed specifically for the event, and of course the Oculus Rift, which proved to be the event's main attraction. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Also present at the YoYoTech stand were representatives from both the MSI Notebook and ASUS teams, who were each offered their own section at the exhibit in order to push their products to YoYoTech customers. This allowed customers to interact directly with some of the top vendors represented by YoYoTech. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Industry-recognised IT distributor, Ci Distribution, is now equipped to sell branded refurb tablets, desktops and notebooks by all its tier one manufacturers. Moreover, all Grade 'A' refurbed products are backed with a direct end-user warranty to offer users invaluable peace of mind. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ci Distribution will be combining the hardware offering with Centerprise's ADISA-accredited (Distinction) Asset Retirement services. In this way, when it comes to both refurbishing and shredding, Ci Distribution guarantees the highest level of security, offering peace of mind to both its resellers and end customers. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ci Distribution can also offer a full retirement service to its reseller partners.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">RM3733 is available to be utilised by any public sector body in the UK, and provides a fit-for-purpose and market-leading replacement solution for the RM1054 Agreement. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bidding for RM3733 began on May 20, 2016, and unlike its predecessor, this agreement features 6 rather than 4 lots. Centerprise is proud to announce its exclusive position, being the only company awarded a position across ALL lots. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Framework's 6 lots are: Hardware, Software, Combined Hardware and Software Requirements, Information Assured Products, Volume Hardware Requirements, and Catalogue. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"The successful award of RM3733 across all 6 lots further strengthens our position across Public Sector.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The RM3733 Framework highlights Centerprise's great standing as a provider of IT products, services and solutions.

<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Headed by experienced Group
Commercial Director, Jon Atherton, the Centerprise Marketing Team has witnessed
a 300% increase in manpower (or in this case, woman-power) since March – a
month which has seen Karlee Gould (Creative Lead) join forces with new
marketing executives, Harriett Walters and Julie Miah. Alongside this trio, an
experienced copywriter, Nour Bahgat, has also recently joined the group. In
addition, the Centerprise Marketing Department is looking forward to the
recruitment of a second Designer in the near future. Well-known to the IT
channel, and a seasoned veteran with over 25 years of experience, Atherton
asserts: </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">“With this team, I am confident we will deliver on our promise to offer
the Centerprise Group the truly well-rounded representation it deserves.”<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="color: #2f5496; mso-themecolor: accent5; mso-themeshade: 191;">Karlee Gould (Creative Lead):</span> Armed with a degree in
Fashion Design and Illustration, Karlee is in charge of all things
design-and-art-related. She has been with Centerprise for 2 and a half years
to-date. From crafting unique promotional material, to creating entire
websites, Karlee is a one-of-a-kind artist with a keen eye for detail. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">“We’re a Super-sonic
Ci Machine #NoShame” – Karlee.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="color: #2f5496; mso-themecolor: accent5; mso-themeshade: 191;">Harriett Walters (Marketing Executive):</span> Upon
obtaining a Business degree from Kingston Business School in 2014, Harriett
lived for a year in Malta, before acquiring relevant experience working for an
IT company. Highly-motivated and secretly witty, Harriett never fails to bring
a degree of professionalism and friendliness to the table, delivering quality
work which speaks for itself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">“Everyone in the team
comes from varying backgrounds and experience and I look forward to the coming
year and finding out what we are capable of together” – Harri. <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="color: #2f5496; mso-themecolor: accent5; mso-themeshade: 191;">Julie Miah (Marketing Executive): </span>In 2014, Julie was
awarded a 1st Class Honours Degree in Digital Media from Portsmouth University.
After gaining significant expertise working in varying Marketing roles,
Julie arrived at Centerprise ready to put her well-rounded experience,
contagious enthusiasm, and helpfulness to excellent use.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">“Being part of such
an energetic team is inspiring; I am positive that our marketing team will
excel greatly and I look forward to the future with the creative bunch here” –
Julie.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="color: #2f5496; mso-themecolor: accent5; mso-themeshade: 191;">Nour Bahgat (Researcher/Copywriter):</span> Nour studied
English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Reading, after
which she completed a Master’s Degree in Publishing at UCL. She acquired
practical experience in digital marketing at a number of publishing companies,
and is now utilising her combined passion for editorial and marketing to assist
the team. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: center;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">“I am privileged to
have been offered a place on this fantastic team. From working on annual
marketing plans, to organising wonderful charity events, our department is
constantly buzzing with energy. I look forward to helping bring all our
creative plans to life!” – Nour.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Aside from the significant growth
in people on the ground, Centerprise has aligned its focus to incorporate the
Marketing Team directly with Sales, in an effort to maximise future potential as
well as increase awareness of all campaigns. </span><span style="font-family: "calibri";">Centerprise has also established
new partnerships with vendors, and has solidified pre-existing relationships
with others, including Dell, Panasonic and Fujitsu. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Moreover, for the future,
Centerprise has plans to expand on its current customer focus, which at this
point in time is predominantly public sector, and has been such since the
company’s foundation in the 1980’s. In preparation to develop its profile in
the private sector, Centerprise has initiated a B2B business unit and has expanded
its Distribution Sales Business Unit. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri";">Thus, with an increased focus on
PR, and with a goal both to create new partnerships and strengthen established
ones, the Centerprise Marketing Department is well-equipped to embark on the
promising voyage ahead.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgncwdc_ofeHw_gPjpvCoH7szB7ngaLEw6y15hlUYnQsAGhEw9mAtHrtHewontM6p9z2eE9GVm-zpr74ZXAE1BitgUkjBawuYBJymqpVLxp1GpQTk_wfjc8Imx1S6XU0ssT15YY92eaqCaW/s1600/ci-distribution-colour.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="271" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgncwdc_ofeHw_gPjpvCoH7szB7ngaLEw6y15hlUYnQsAGhEw9mAtHrtHewontM6p9z2eE9GVm-zpr74ZXAE1BitgUkjBawuYBJymqpVLxp1GpQTk_wfjc8Imx1S6XU0ssT15YY92eaqCaW/s320/ci-distribution-colour.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">For over two decades now, Ci Distribution (Ci D) has
been supplying its way to greatness. Established in 1990, Ci D was in the
business of delivering a vast array of hardware devices, ranging from
components and scanners, to pcs, laptops and mp3 players. In other words, it
was in the business of providing the equipment which we have now come to accept
as everyday-essentials.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Fast-forward to 2014, Ci D began to invest its efforts
in what has now become its main vein of specialisation: distributing ruggedised
devices through the reseller channel. These tenaciously resilient pieces of
hardware have been afforded more than your average five minutes of fame, from
helping formulate the game-changing decisions of the Wimbledon umpires, to providing
life-changing solutions for emergency ambulance services. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Owing to its successes in the reseller channels, Ci D
saw fit to undergo an expansion of its team, with this year welcoming six brilliant
new members of staff. Moreover, in addition to being armed with what has now
become a team of 11 sales people, Ci D have a dedicated marketing resource
helping them increase brand awareness and further raise their status within the
market. Specifically, they have been assigned a member of the marketing team
who is capable of offering them a bespoke marketing service, aligned to suit
their unique brand – a brand which has now been encompassed in a new logo.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Acquiring its own brand inevitably signifies a bespoke
brand image and service, and consequently, a bespoke identity. For this reason,
a delineation of Centerprise and Ci D as being two separate brand entities was
voted a natural and progressive way forward. The positive aftermath of such a
decision is embodied in Ci D’s being listed by the CRN awards as a
Specialist Distributor of the Year finalist. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">But don’t just take our and their word for it; here is
what Ci D business unit manager, Emma Loveless, had to say about the promising
future that awaits:</span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 48.2pt 8pt 1cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“I am delighted with the re-branding which we hope will now reassure the market that Ci Distribution operates with its own identity. We have a solid strategy in place for growth that will ensure our customers can have the right products for their verticals. It is going to be a challenging but exciting year ahead.” </span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "myriad pro" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-family: "myriad pro" , sans-serif;">Centerprise
have secured a contract with CERN, the European Research facility for Nuclear
Science, to provide 25 petabytes of storage units alongside a 3 year support
contract after demonstrating a substantially successful history of delivering
server and storage solutions across the UK public sector. <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "myriad pro" , sans-serif;">Physicists and
Engineers at CERN are studying the structure of our universe, quite literally particle
by particle, in pursuit of discovering the fundamental laws of being. The
research is conducted with particle accelerators that are designed, built and
operated within CERN with the aim to one day conclude the question; how did we
come to be here?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "myriad pro" , sans-serif;">CERN is an
intergovernmental organisation with 21 member states and is located on both sides
of the French/Swiss border. The existence of CERN provides a platform that
enables the international collaboration in the field of high-end particle
research in their pursuit to ‘accelerate science’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "myriad pro" , sans-serif;">Centerprise built,
tested and delivered the storage units in excess of 25,000TB ahead of the 8
week schedule. The project was completed in compliance with all specifications
which included above industry standard component functionality. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "myriad pro" , sans-serif;">In procurement and
completion of the released tender, Centerprise have delivered an extensive
infrastructure that contributes significantly to the storage and support
network CERN require to maintain the ongoing search beyond the office.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

<b>Centerprise partner
YoYoTech have received even more recognition after a review from the industry
leading title, Computer Shopper. <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The spotlight fell on the Warbird RS12 – the ultra-powerful
yet super sleek gaming workstation, crammed with handpicked hardware components.
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The workstation received 4 stars from Computer Shopper, as
well as a recommended Award, after undergoing the rigorous testing these
reviews demand. Computer Shopper is read by technology enthusiasts across the
UK and is home to the largest reviews section in any UK tech magazine. This
section is often the first port of call for gamers when considering their next PC.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
This most recent accolade comes shortly after an ‘Editor’s
Choice’ award from MicroMart, proving that YoYoTech are leading the way in the
UK gaming workstation market. <o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 17.12px;">Centerprise International confirmed their inclusion on “Link: Solutions IT” the new NHS Shared Business Services Framework, with the second highest scoring proposal out of the 15 companies accepted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b style="text-align: justify;"><span style="line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">Link: Solutions IT is a
multi-million pound procurement framework for NHS bodies, as well as other
public sector institutions. It will serve as a one stop shop for IT, with a
single Lot covering cloud services, networking, virtualisation and managed
services; reflecting the ways in which IT has changed in the last decade, as
well as the latest trends in public sector IT procurement. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">Centerprise International (Ci) has provided
specialist IT within the NHS for a number of years. The new framework will run
alongside the current Link: IT and so allow Ci to capitalise on their move into
managed service provision, as well as providing a full product offering to NHS
organisations. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; line-height: 107%;">Since diversifying into managed
service provision in recent years, Ci is well positioned to build on its wealth
of knowledge and experience within the Healthcare sector to supply the full array
of services expected through this framework. Ci’s ability to design, implement
and support relevant solutions is strengthened by the fact that it owns an
impressive manufacturing facility located in Wales – this breadth and depth of
capability undoubtedly contributed to Ci’s high scoring proposal. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

With George Osborne set to stick
to his long term economic plan and continue to cut back on public spending,
local councils are faced with enduring austerity measures imposed by the
government.</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3vqZLKYt253owAoRw3D5AkewKSfzUM8X5MDjTIii3HEbNGqRl6o2Y7XPnWG5jxXbufcW8CJMP5Kf8PRGacmQ6nkypLObmkk3Wo8BitRgpAwZNfvbOjuWJu9x9H7usp72GZ5myaUEhqji3/s1600/budget.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="199" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3vqZLKYt253owAoRw3D5AkewKSfzUM8X5MDjTIii3HEbNGqRl6o2Y7XPnWG5jxXbufcW8CJMP5Kf8PRGacmQ6nkypLObmkk3Wo8BitRgpAwZNfvbOjuWJu9x9H7usp72GZ5myaUEhqji3/s320/budget.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
For the past 5 years, local
governments have had to do more with less money, but how does this relate to
technical IT developments?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The funds for new technology are
few and far between, making it difficult for our councils to keep up with the
innovation currently sweeping the IT industry. But when this has an adverse
effect on their processes, with legacy systems becoming obsolete, our
government bodies have to make a change – right?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In theory yes. The public sector
is not unique, and like all business they must incorporate new IT into their
everyday operation to improve efficiency, communications and processes. So,
they are firmly stuck between the need to ride the tide of change and the need
to deliver up to 40% savings in real terms by 2019-20.</div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
The Solution?</h2>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Off the back of these austerity
concerns, a few particular IT trends are rising to the fore in the public
sector. By now you would have heard the phrase ‘as-a-service’ – virtualising
everything from software to full IT infrastructures, the main benefit of which
is the cost savings due to lower infrastructure costs. Gone are the arduous
worries about the maintenance of hardware and networking equipment, or the
concerns about replacing old equipment, replaced with an efficient, usually
outsourced, service.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now that’s all well and good, but
what if our councils are unsure which service would benefit their organisation?
With the heavy burden of austerity, mingled with the challenging necessity to
keep up technologically, the IT procurement process can be an unclear, daunting
prospect. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Here at Centerprise, we can
identify key potential cost-saving and productivity measures, with the right
people, the right skills and the right technology to help, whether local
authorities are considering adopting digital transformation to optimise how
they interact, a technology refresh following a planned rationalisation of
their real estate, or merely wishing to identify savings associated with the
under-utilisation of their existing ICT estate. An Information Technology Asset
Management (ITAM) audit across a local authority’s entire organisation is the
place to start. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnhH1TwCES-bjQ_IdvYUqf0sZ-NAPiMiO3nUuNs4mOsUPUFWicn1HBQVuu2CCez9h1gekjtMV_O7ZMOJySk5Ab8IUk9YKlCLya9O8CfTp8v7QqWmbNk2RcxDFktwbOgOdofTZXTHg4HoVz/s1600/itam+pic.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnhH1TwCES-bjQ_IdvYUqf0sZ-NAPiMiO3nUuNs4mOsUPUFWicn1HBQVuu2CCez9h1gekjtMV_O7ZMOJySk5Ab8IUk9YKlCLya9O8CfTp8v7QqWmbNk2RcxDFktwbOgOdofTZXTHg4HoVz/s1600/itam+pic.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The initial stage of the ITAM
audit is a non-intrusive, tailored questionnaire. Once complete, we identify
any saving opportunities relating to the under-utilisation of software licenses
and/or hardware capacity, and also pin point opportunities for ICT
optimisation.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
And the best part? We are
offering our ITAM audits with a risk free guarantee. We’re confident in our
ability to deliver results and support this claim by offering this service to
local authorities absolutely free of charge if we’re unable to produce material
savings.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">

infrastructure is currently underutilised, or you’d like to realise the
potential of new IT trends in your organisation, contact the Centerprise Team:</h3>

The annual Basingstoke Deane Rotary Club Charity Concert was a huge success last weekend. On the 30th January, the Band of her Majesty’s Royal Marines performed to a packed audience at The Anvil theatre in Basingstoke.</h4>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Rotary Club is involved in supporting a range of local charities and the concert is a key date in their fundraising calendar. This year, the majority of the proceeds went to the Ark Cancer Charity, who Centerprise have and will be supporting throughout 2016. As the headline sponsor, Centerprise’s chairman Rafi Razzak, who has supported the Rotary Concert for many years, was amongst the memorized spectators.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the main beneficiary of the concert, The Ark Cancer Charity received a whopping £10,000 in support of their efforts to build a new state-of-the-art cancer facility in Basingstoke. This unique local cancer treatment centre that will help and support people in the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust area.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Ark Cancer Centre Charity is now well on the way to achieving their £5 million appeal as the Rotary contribution enabled them to reach the £1 million benchmark! </b></div>

<br />
Our very own Sharon Allen went for a bold new look for Christmas - and it's really paid off, as she has raised thousands of pounds for good causes.<br />
<br />
Sharon is Group Finance Director at award-winning, Basingstoke-based Centerprise International, and both she and colleagues have pledged to use their fundraising muscle to support three charities over the next 12 months - Ark Cancer Centre Charity, Help for Heroes, and MCCH, which helps people to manage mental well-being challenges.<br />
<br />
To get the fundraising ball rolling, Sharon decided to lose her locks in time for Christmas - and her brave feat has paid dividends for charities.<br />
<br />
The donations came pouring in, and by the time the scissors and clipper were wielded on December 23rd, Sharon had raised more than £5,700 in online and offline donations, and has every hope that the final figure will top £6,000.<br />
<br />
Sharon's purple and pink locks were lopped off in front of colleagues at the company's Hampshire International Business Park headquarters in Chineham.<br />
<br />
The hair was sent tumbling thanks to some snipping and clipping by Centerprise International Chairman, Rafi Razzak, Group HR and Support Director, Sam Lailey, and Dave Taylor, from the Systems Integrators team.<br />
<br />
Sharon said:<br />
<b>"I am staggered and blown away by the support that I have received from family, friends and work colleagues. I was hoping to raise £500, so to raise well over £5,000 already is amazing."</b><br />
<br />
Just before Sharon's fundraising haircut, Director of Fundraising and Communications for Ark Cancer Centre Charity, Mark Jones, gave a talk to the Centerprise team about the charity, which is raising £5 million towards a cancer treatment centre that will help and support people in the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust area.<br />
<br />
Mark Jones stated:<br />
<b>"The Ark Cancer Centre Charity team are so grateful for the support of the staff at Centerprise International. The commitment and involvement of the 150-strong team will really help to raise awareness of the cancer treatment centre project as well as funds for the charity appeal."</b><br />
<br />
The £5m appeal will ensure a range of support services and complementary therapies are available alongside chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments in a calm and uplifting environment.<br />
<br />
The new centre is earmarked for a location in the Basingstoke and Deane area, and if the preferred site near to Junction 7 of the M3 is approved, it will be easily accessible to everyone in the HFFT region. The centre is scheduled to open at the end of 2018.<br />

<b>STAFF at award-winning Basingstoke-based Centerprise International have pledged to use their money-raising muscle to help fund a unique local cancer treatment centre</b>.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Employees at the top-performing IT company, based on Hampshire International Business Park in Chineham, have voted to support three charities in 2016 – and 80 per cent of their fundraising will go to Ark Cancer Centre Charity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The charity is raising £5million towards a cancer treatment centre that will help and support people in the Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (HHFT) area. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sam Lailey, Group HR and Support Director at Centerprise International, said the company’s charity committee and staff will be delighted to support Ark Cancer Centre Charity, Help for Heroes, and MCCH, which helps people to manage mental wellbeing challenges, during 2016. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sam said: “These are three very good causes, and the team are looking forward to taking on various fundraising activities to support them.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Group Finance Director Sharon Allen will be kicking off the fundraising for Ark Cancer Centre Charity in a big way when she loses her locks for Christmas by taking part in a sponsored head-shave on December 23.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sharon, who has already drummed up more than £4,000 in sponsorship support, said: “I'm never going to climb a mountain or run a marathon but I can do this simple thing to raise money for a fantastic charity.” </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To mark the launch of Centerprise’s year of fundraising, Ark Cancer Centre Charity trustee Merv Rees visited the company’s offices to thank chairman Rafi Razzak and his staff for their support, and to tell them more about the charity and cancer treatment centre project.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Merv said: “I am very grateful to the Centerprise team for choosing Ark Cancer Centre Charity as one of their good causes to raise money for in 2016. This significant show of support will help to raise vital awareness of, and funds for, the charity appeal and cancer centre project.” </div>
