This is the beginning of a new adventure

Business IT managed service specialists Connectus Business Solutions has announced the launch of a new venture called Connectus Mobile Device as a Service

The new company aims to satisfy market demand and the increased need among Connectus’ clients for fully managed mobile workflow solutions on devices including tablets and phones on as ‘As a Service’ Model.

It has been established in joint venture with leading telecommunications solutions provider PRS Group and cements a trading relationship that has lasted almost a decade.

Connectus and PRS Group have, in addition, set up a second joint venture – called PRS IT – to offer PRS Group clients the full range of Connectus’ Connect, Protect and Collaborate managed services on a white label basis.

The creation of Connectus Mobile Device as a Service comes just weeks after Connectus reached an agreement to partner with Lincolnshire-based Genius Technology Solutions to support their 100 customers, principally across Lincolnshire and the Midlands.

Connectus has now completed five transactions in the past 3 years, with 3 of them coming in the past six months, as part of an accelerated growth plan.

Connectus remains privately owned and is now delivering services to over 550 customers across the north of England, the Midlands, and London.

Commenting on this latest deal, Roy Shelton, CEO of Connectus Business Solutions, said:

“Connectus has always been a partner-friendly company, so building on our foundation technology relationships with leading vendors such as Microsoft, Pax8, Brigantia, Dell, Vodafone and Xelion, we are thrilled to be extending our relationship with PRS Group.

“Collectively, we service over 1,300 businesses across the UK in vertical sectors such as financial services, legal, sports and leisure, hospitality, manufacturing, logistics, property developers and retailers.

“Our white label IT managed services offering along with PRS’s extensive experience in the field of mobility solutions provides a wider range of proven capabilities for our current and new clients. I have been a huge admirer of Paddy and his team for many years and feel the time is right to extend our service offering.”

Commenting on the new chapter with Connectus, Patrick Gill, Chairman and Founder of PRS Business Holdings, said:

“Since 2003, PRS has been primarily a provider of mobile solutions for businesses. We have grown the business from zero customers to a broad range of businesses across all industries and the whole of the UK. That has been complimented by providing Telephony System solutions featuring, MitelUnify, & 3CX.

“Our clients have always asked us to take care of them on the IT front and giving them access to the portfolio of Connectus will be a fabulous development for the betterment of our customers’ satisfaction.

“Roy and I have worked on various projects and initiatives over the years and we both recognise, realise and are motivated by the unification of our portfolios. This is the beginning of a new adventure for everyone involved in both PRS and Connectus.”
