case studies
BAU Support
BAU is the first line of support for the bank’s end-users. The team’s support portfolio is vital for most aspects of the bank’s current IT requirements and ranges from the provision of new headsets, through to the support and maintenance of major market data technologies.
Asset Management
Prior to July 2008 the Asset Logistics team consisted of Excel I.T. doing the admin and goods in role while a separate courier company delivered IT equipment between sites. This affected efficiency as the courier company were quite regimented in the number of deliveries they performed each day and to which buildings.
Moves, Adds & Changes
Following a high profile acquisition and the resulting merger of two investment banking giants Excel I.T. were engaged to relocate the entire Equities and Credit Trading business between two premier London trading floors. This massive project required the relocation of a total of over 700 front office users in three principle phases.
