Company history

Founded in 1988, IBIS Business Consultants Ltd has grown steadily using its expertise in consultancy, data security, systems support, training and contractor services

With turnover in excess of £1 million, a Microsoft Certified Partner since 1998, and recognised as an Investor in People, IBIS has the skilled people and resources able to help you develop your IT systems and services, including bespoke software, and to support and protect all the elements of your network infrastructure

Since the acquisition of the Computer Solutions (Leeds) Ltd. business in 2002 we can now boast a complete portfolio of services that can offer 'cradle to grave' solutions to its client base, many of which are major blue chip organisations

Founded by Jon Browne, to supply expertise in Microcomputer to Mainframe connectivity technologies. Jon already had over ten years experience in the computing industry, both with large mainframe vendors such as IBM and NCR, and six years experience of the emerging microcomputer market

By 1990 IBIS Business Consultants Ltd had moved into microcomputer networking, primarily using Novell 3.1x. This was put to good use during a four year offshore oil project, where the IBIS skill set of quality professionalism was used to the full

Over the years the Company has grown in personnel numbers and skills, and in the year 2001-2002 achieved turnover of over a million pounds. We have also recognised the growing acceptance of Microsoft NT and have changed the Company emphasis, so whilst we still enjoy a high level of expertise in Novell Netware, we have also achieved Microsoft Certified Partner status for the last five years in recognition of our strong Microsoft skill sets

IBIS Business Consultants Ltd have provided both technical and project management skills for major rollouts, including the conversion of the CCTA, the UK Government Centre for Information Systems, from Novell 3.1x to Novell 4.11. IBIS provided both project management and the technical skills for a 3000 desktop rollout for The Department of Health in Leeds with a team of four people. A team of six IBIS designers has also been responsible for the design and implementation of the new BBC Corporate wide desktop, V2.1, which has now been installed on over 20,000 desktops. We were responsible for the network design and installation for 'Top Shop' Oxford Circus, the worlds largest fashion store, and have provided significant support resources for both ABB and Centrica across the UK throughout 2001 and 2002

We provide top quality consultants in all regions of the UK for a variety of project work, and also maintain a strong presence in the contract marketplace
