£600,000 of new business marks a fantastic start for Novosco.
Today sees the launch of a new and exciting IT virtualisation firm to serve the All-Island market. Novosco, a derivative of two Latin words meaning ‘new understanding’ is the result of the merger of two of Northern Ireland’s most successful IT solutions companies.
In May of this year Real Time Systems Ltd (RTSL) and 4sol joined forces in what was seen as an exciting and innovative partnership. Both companies saw huge potential in working together to create a stronger IT company capable of mounting a serious assault on the all Ireland IT infrastructure and integration marketplace.
Although only operating for a matter of months Novosco has already chalked up a number of significant contact wins totalling £600,000, with clients of the calibre of Balcas, Quinn Group and Acheson and Glover.
Commenting at the launch, Patrick McAliskey, Managing Director at Novosco said, “I am thrilled at the way the two companies have come together and although we have only been in operation for a short while, the level of new business we have won has been tremendous. I believe this is a direct result of the synergies and skills that were carried through from both RTSL and 4sol. These have enabled us to deliver clear benefits to our existing clients, generate new business and move forward with a common vision.”
“Novosco currently employs 35 people in Northern Ireland we are working closely with Invest NI exploring how best the two organisations can work together in the future to maximise the potential for growth in export markets. The majority of the current employees are highly qualified technical staff. In addition, we will be relocating to new business premises to facilitate Novosco’s future expansion plans.”
John Lennon, Business Development Director at Novosco commented, “When we took the decision to merge, I was confident it was the best option for both organisations and this has certainly been the case. Everyone involved has pulled together, allowing us to move forward in a positive direction.”
Mr. Lennon continued, “At the time of our merger announcement we indicated our intension to operate on an All-Island basis and I am happy to confirm we now have fully functioning business premises in Belfast and Dublin serving clients on both sides of the border. The ICT marketplace throughout Ireland has developed rapidly over recent years. Our clients are demanding the best products, services and advice in order to support their plans for growth and development. I believe our decision to operate in this manner clearly demonstrates our commitment to the Irish marketplace and is one that will undoubtedly benefit the company.”
