Company History
Formed in 1989 by partners Adrian Rees and Andy Shipman, ASAP Computer Services was created to provide component level computer and electronic device repair to the business and end-user market.
From those early days, ASAP Computer Services quickly gained a reputation for high quality work, using innovative fault diagnosis and repair strategies. This agile approach enabled us to provide repair solutions to a wide variety of equipment, and became the default option for many companies when looking for IT repair services.
By the year 2000, ASAP Computer Services identified a requirement from many of our customers for on-site support. We became aware that many of our customers were frustrated by being caught between software and hardware support companies, and just wanted to have their problems solved without having to get too involved themselves.
Our Field Service department was therefore launched, with our intention being to simplify IT support for our customers, providing a single point of contact for hardware and software problems. Our reputation for a tenacious approach to fault finding in the workshop was applied to our on-site business, which allowed our customers to hand a problem to us with confidence that it would be resolved “no matter what”.
As business owners ourselves, we realised the importance of understanding our customers' businesses, and therefore the requirements they would have for their IT. We have often taken on the role of an in-house IT department, identifying shortcomings in the infrastructure, recommending worthwhile upgrades or pointing out useful new technologies that may be relevant, enabling our customers to get full benefit from their IT.
