Welcome to Orange Teapot! PDF Print E-mail
We are an I.T. consultancy practice based in the south east of England. We specialise in wide-area network and systems architecture design, one-off technology solutions advice and technology refresh projects..

We have a broad knowledge of Wide-area and Local-area networking technologies, server architectures and Voice services. We like Microsoft, VMWare, Cisco, HP, Linksys, Sonicwall, Zyxel but don't have any reseller agreements with any of them as we prefer to build solutions based on customer needs using reliable products and providers. 

We think it would be great if every customer of ours could afford best-of-breed products and if every solution had a perfect off-the-shelf solution but we know life isn't actually like that so we do the best we can for our customers within their budget constraints. Sometimes though budgets need to be raised and we can help with the business case justification when you are struggling or on occasion, we'll help trim your wish-list down to a point where you can make some gains now and work towards achieving your nirvana solution when budget is available.

Code of Practice

Rather than develop a code of practice on our own, we have adopted the BCS Code of Practice and have attained (or for the newer consultants - are working towards) the CITP mark. Image

Why an Orange Teapot ?

Well. Try and not think of an Orange Teapot. Hard isn't it. Your teapot is a quintessential icon of the civilised age. It evokes an image of a relaxed, welcoming scene with friends coming together and guests being welcomed.  But Orange ? If any colour can be described as zany or maybe "interesting" it would have to be orange. It wins over blue or green any day. We are a bit like that. We get excited about technology, especially when there is an obvious business need being met. You know that we will get a buzz from making I.T. work for you, helping you to relax (maybe with a cuppa) and get on with your day job. And with a set of traditional working values and a professional approach, you know we'll get the job done.
