Challenge

As the business has grown and evolved, an internal team managing all their IT needs and providing support had grown organically, which presented a number of challenges. Being a fast-moving accountancy firm with significant rapid growth, operational IT became a priority, which therefore challenged the time for strategic activities, future planning, and emerging technologies.
