During a local Networking meeting it was clear that Thames Valley Hire Services needed the assistance of ACT Systems. Steve Storey owner of Thames Valley Hire Services was keen to move his Business forward but it had become apparent that their dated IT infrastructure was a major hindrance especially in respect to the dynamic working of the remote outlets.

ACT Systems were at hand to help, following a FREE onsite audit and meetings with Steve a proposal of our recommendations was accepted. The proposal consisted of a new Microsoft Server with remote working for the remote outlets and a schedule to replace existing dated workstations.

“ACT Systems made it so easy, explained the proposal in plain English and delivered exactly what was promised with ongoing support that really does make a difference to the running of my Business!” (Steve Storey – Owner)
