Overview:
Kavanagh's solution, based on advanced HP technology meets the ambitious targets set by Robert McBride for TCO, performance and manageability.
Robert McBride Ltd is a fully owned subsidiary of £600 million McBride plc, the leading European producer of private label household and personal care products.
David Birchall, Technical Operations Manager at Robert McBride's Middleton headquarters, knew that his aging IT infrastructure needed replacing. Following an Invitation To Tender (ITT), he and his team put together an Invitation To Tender (ITT) that described their existing infrastructure and laid out the company's business needs in terms of user workload and IT growth over the next five years.
A rigorous process to evaluate both the solution providers and the proposed IT systems resulted in Kavanagh with its HP based solution being selected.
