Overview
KCH Garden Square is a well-established Barristers Chambers who provide legal advice and representation for individuals and solicitors within criminal, civil and family law.
Location
They have offices based in both Nottingham and Leicester.
Problem
Their phone system, a key business function to operate effectively, was causing substantial issues, regularly dropping calls, losing internet connectivity and they received little support from their previous supplier. They were also utilising an MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) Network from the phone provider to incorporate both offices onto a single network.
Their print environment was also a mismatch of models and brands combined with poor support levels, slow engineer response times to fix machines regularly breaking down and replacement consumables not provided for lengthy periods of time, despite being a local provider.
KCH Garden Square were in contract with existing suppliers for all their current systems in place – with different termination dates, and several years to go in some cases.
Solution
Understanding the current agreements in place regarding KCH Garden Square’s network connectivity, phone system and printers, we were able to work on a proposed solution that met all of their needs, offering a substantial cost saving to the business, whilst taking into account any contractual obligations.
Outcome
KCH Garden Square have a fully functional, unified solution, encompassing their print fleet, phone system and network connectivity between their two sites.
