PROCUREMENT
All organisations can suffer badly when IT procurement goes wrong. In the case of small to medium businesses this can prove fatal.
According to a recent survey, IT buyers spend, on average, a minimum of 8 hours a week ringing suppliers and manually comparing individual product prices. This time, when accumulated annually, can account for as much as 10% of an organisation’s IT budget.
Making the right purchasing decision is critical. CNT’s relationship with our numerous partners means that a competitive price can be guaranteed and we pride ourselves in providing value for money for all of our customers.
We have a wide range of experience in IT procurement across all sectors which means that we can secure all possible public sector discounts where relevant including charitable, educational, local government and social housing.

- Identify business requirements and possible risks;
- System lifecycles – maintaining, refreshing and decommissioning IT systems;
