Systems Integration (SI) proudly announced a further strengthening of the affiliation with Source UK. The new global strength and stability acquired from the change is believed to optimise their position in the South African data storage market. Source will trade under the name of Source Consulting South Africa.
Source Consulting SA is a joint-venture company between Source Enterprise Consulting UK Limited and SI. The joint venture will offer sophisticated, vendor-independent storage consultation services. The partnership marries the skills SI has acquired over 12 years in the storage arena, with a proven suite of storage consultation services from Source Enterprise Consulting UK Limited.
Source Consulting SA will operate as a separate and independent division of SI, complementing the group's overall storage expertise and offerings.
"Source is the UK's leading vendor-independent storage solutions provider. With our unique philosophy, Source offers a combination of professional consulting services, market leading hardware and software, and world class accredited integration and deployment resources to deliver data storage solutions that enable our customers to reduce risk, manage growth, and control costs." Says Jason Rabbettes, commercial director for source UK.
The approach ensures that customers deploy a storage management strategy that is smarter, not necessarily bigger. With a clear understanding of consumption rates and data profiles, Source SA ensures that the lives of their clients existing systems are prolonged, that performance is optimised, risk minimised, and their total cost of ownership is reduced.
