BIBA Technology ICT services launched exclusively for BIBA members

The British Insurance Brokers’ Association (BIBA) is launching BIBA Technology, in partnership with Redstone plc, to offer members a complete service for information and communication technology (ICT).

Members will benefit from a specially negotiated rate on many of Redstone’s services which include telephone tariffs, network infrastructures and converged communications.

Robert Cavan, Managing Director, Redstone Managed Solutions, said: “The launch of the BIBA Technology service is the latest stage in Redstone plc’s longstanding relationship with the insurance sector. BIBA members will benefit from the reassurance of knowing they are using services embraced by some of the UK’s leading general insurance organisations.”

Redstone is the only ICT supplier to be endorsed by BIBA and was awarded this status after undergoing BIBA’s formal appraisal and proposal process.

Cavan added: “By delivering trusted consultancy and proven solutions we can ensure BIBA members have the right IT and communications environment, allowing them the confidence to excel in their area of expertise and giving them cost effective business efficiencies.”

Steve Foulsham, BIBA Technical Services Manager, said: “The current economic climate means that insurers and brokers are looking for opportunities to improve service. BIBA Technology will give our members the efficiency, experience and peace of mind that comes from a single point of contact providing full end-to-end ICT strategies and solutions.”

BIBA Technology will be launched by Eric Galbraith, BIBA’s chief executive, in a photocall on stand B12 at the BIBA conference and exhibition, Manchester, on Thursday 14th May.

BIBA Technology is backed by the Redstone group of companies. Redstone is one of the UK’s leading IT and communications providers through its five divisions, each one specialising in complementary solutions; Telecom, Mobile, Converged Solutions, Managed Solutions and Technology. BIBA Technology will provide the cohesive channel for the entire Redstone portfolio.
