Why Reading fleet rollouts have their own shape
Reading customers include tech-corporate-HQ scale (500+ unit refreshes for Microsoft / Oracle / Cisco UK) plus tech scale-ups. We tune staging to both extremes.
Microsoft / Oracle / Cisco / HP UK HQ scale
Tech-corporate UK HQ customers run 500+ unit refreshes typically over 8–12 weeks — Dell Pro / Latitude + Lenovo ThinkPad with US-customer-aware secure baselines.
Thames Valley tech scale-ups mixed estates
Reading tech scale-ups typically run MacBook for engineering, ThinkPad for ops, with AWS / Okta-ready imaging.
Reading proximity = hand-delivery option
Reading is close to Surrey HQ — for smaller fleets we can hand-deliver from Fetcham directly to your Reading office, often within the same day.
NHS BOB clinical workstations
Royal Berkshire and BOB ICB-affiliated trusts standardise on Dell Latitude / ThinkPad with NHS-baseline secure imaging.
