Irish IT solutions company ICT Services has been honoured as IT Services Company of the Year 2022 by the All-Ireland Business Foundation (AIBF).

The business, with bases in Dublin, Cork and Belfast, has received the prestigious accreditation from the AIBF for standards of excellence in the areas of trust, commitment, performance and customer-centricity.

ICT Services has also been added to The AIBF Register of Irish Business Excellence (TRIBE) as part of the honour.

ICT Services, now celebrating 25 years in business, employs over 100 people while offering all-Ireland IT services in everything from system maintenance and installation, to desk-side assistance and 24/7 cover.

The company is also a Dell Technologies Platinum Partner, allowing it to offer Irish-based expertise and services in conjunction with the technology and resources of one of the biggest global names in IT.

Business All-Star accreditation is an independently verified standard mark for indigenous businesses, based on rigorous selection criteria.

The accreditation is overseen by the prestigious All-Ireland Business Foundation, whose adjudication panel is chaired by Dr Briga Hynes of the University of Limerick and Kieran Ring, CEO of the Global Institute of Logistics.

Managing Director at ICT Services, Don Scanlon, said they’re thrilled to accept this accreditation:

“We are incredibly proud of this achievement. It is an honour to be recognised in this regard by the business community of Ireland and the perfect way to mark 25 years in business serving our customers and partners with world-class solutions.”

“This is a testament to the quality of our staff, from our excellent team of engineers both in the field and on-site to our tireless back-office team, all of whom are dedicated to providing our customers with the best possible service.”

“We have ambitious plans for the future and look forward to the next 25 years in business.”

Deputy Chair of the Adjudication Board, Kieran Ring, has paid tribute to ICT Services for achieving IT Services Company of the Year 2022:

“The company is now recognised as one of Ireland’s leading IT services companies, and has extended its customer base beyond our own shores. It delivers world-class IT solutions to its customers across the public and private sectors.”

“Our accreditation recognises the company’s conduct in the areas of trust, commitment, performance & customer centricity. This recognition is testament to the quality of their staff, and we congratulate them on their first quarter-century in business.”

“The company’s background, trustworthiness and performance has been thoroughly evaluated during this multi-interview process, and ICT Services deserves to be accredited as IT Services Company of the Year 2022. “ICT Services is hereby included in The AIBF Register of Irish Business Excellence (TRIBE).”

Managing Director of the All-Ireland Business Foundation, Kapil Khanna, said the accreditation, which is now held by over 500 firms, is needed by the thousands of small and medium businesses which operate to their own standards but have nothing to measure them by.

He said: “We evaluate a company’s background, trustworthiness and performance, and we speak to customers, employees and vendors. We also anonymously approach the company as a customer and report back on the experience. The business goes through at least two interviews and is scored on every part of the process against set metrics.”

The All-Ireland Business Foundation (AIBF) is an autonomous national accreditation body tasked with enterprise development and the promotion of Best-in-Class in Irish business.

The Foundation actively engages and supports its network through peer dialogue, collaboration, mentoring and enterprise development activities. Companies are qualified for accreditation by completing an enterprise audit and are identified by their use of the AIBF’s Business All-Star Marque.
