Dimension Data North America Expands Services for Small and Medium Businesses


Global IT Services Leader Leverages Expertise in Commercial and Enterprise Markets to Help Smaller Businesses Gain Competitive Advantage

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., May 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dimension Data, a $2.7 billion leading IT solutions and services provider, today announced it has made a significant investment in serving small and medium businesses (SMBs) in North America. The SMB team is headquartered in Dimension Data's recently expanded Raleigh, North Carolina office.

Dimension Data currently serves more than 1,200 government, enterprise and commercial organizations. Today's small and mid-size companies face the same challenges as these larger organizations -- leveraging the power of technology for business advantage -- but typically have constraints on staffing and capital expenditures. As an award-winning global provider of IT services and solutions, Dimension Data is applying its expertise in networking, converged communications such as IP telephony, security, storage and wireless, as well as its unique skills in consulting, integration and managed services, to create customized client solutions for this expansive market.

"Today, technology is easier to use and more affordable than ever," said Joe Hewitt, vice president of Dimension Data North America. "Small and mid-size businesses are recognizing the benefits of automation, and turning to the experts to help understand, deploy and maintain technology solutions. Unlike traditional SMB consultants looking to build their business through regional growth, Dimension Data brings a 20-year history of experience in the networking space and commitment to client satisfaction to the IT projects that are underway or planned in the SMB market."

Bob Thompsen leads Dimension Data's SMB group as the national sales manager, directing a group of territory account managers and insides sales account managers across the U.S. Thompsen joins the company from Pharmacare Specialty Pharmacy in Fort Worth, Texas, where he was director of Inside Sales for Specialty Medications.
