Sponsorship Success At Northamptonshire School Business Management Forum

Tandem Solutions were delighted to sponsor the 2013 NSBMF at Whittlebury Hall & Conference Centre.

The conference attracted Bursars and Business Managers from all school phases – primary, secondary and special, foundation, trust, community and PFI Schools within the Northamptonshire area.

Northamptonshire School Business Management Forum (NSBMF) – Membership purposely consists of BMs/Bursars for all schools within each of the 7 County Area Improvement Partnerships represented by a BM from their area. This ensures all aspects of school business management, and the way they affect all schools, are discussed by the group and that every part of the county is represented ensuring well disseminated information.

The Conference ran over 2 days incorporating various workshops and seminars and a chance for Tandem to showcase our Managed Print Solutions to new educational establishments as well as catch up with our existing MPS customers within the Northamptonshire area. As a key sponsor we also donated 2 Samsung Galaxy Tablets to the evening Gala Dinner and the raffle which took place during the main conference.

For Tandem Solutions and the Bursars who attended the conference this year, we can safely say it was a resounding success and we look forward to the next NSBMF Conference!

Cloud Computing Can Cut Costs

Companies that are moving select IT capabilities to the cloud are saving money and increasing profits which they are putting back into the business to increase headcount, boost wages and drive innovation.

The decision over whether to move your organisations IT to the cloud can be a daunting one. After all, it means a wholesale change in the sourcing and delivery of IT products and services. However, many companies are making the leap, at least for select capabilities – a recent survey by CDW of 1,242 IT professionals found that more than half of organisations are moving a variety of capabilities to the cloud. And a majority of them are recognising cost savings and increased profits.

The study found that 88% of cloud users pointed to cost savings and 56% of respondents agreed that cloud services have helped them boost profits. Additionally, 60% of respondents said cloud computing has reduced the need for their IT team to maintain infrastructure, giving them more time to focus on strategy and innovation.

Reducing IT operating costs is only one of several cloud benefits, according to cloud users surveyed by CDW. In fact, organisations implementing or maintaining cloud computing point to increased efficiency (55%), improved employee mobility (49%), increased ability to innovate (32%) and freeing current IT staff for other projects (31%) as the top benefits.
