We actively focusing on The UN Sustainable Development Goals.
We are responsible to our clients in ensuring hardware and IT we use, and recommend, is non-environment negligent, from postage of laptops and using responsible manufacturers, to energy used in our Datacentres.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to transform our world. They are a call to action to end poverty and inequality, protect the planet, and ensure that all people enjoy health, justice and prosperity.
We have partnered with Microsoft & Ingram Micro Trust X Alliance to advance this journey.
WW Computer Systems was founded in 1983 by Neil & Simone Lester. The business, a Word Processing Bureau (called Word Workshop), started from a small shop in Edgware, NW London. Neil Lester was a pioneer in technology and had one of the first desktop computers in the UK.
Our first client requiring IT Support walked through the door in 1990…”I cant open Word Perfect, can you please help”.From there the business grew in to supplying and supporting desktop computers.
In 2001 Marc Lester graduated from University and joined the Family Business. At this time the business strengthened and focused on IT Support and new technologies such as Internet and Email (with dial-up modems and internet speeds 0.6% of what they are today!)
A year before the launch of the first iPhone, WWCS moved into its first office at Mowbray House and hired its first employee. The business grew from a family concern into a team of 5, supporting 50 clients. Support engineers were out across London every day — anything from clearing a paper jam to installing Word and Excel for a client (which came on 30 disks!)
In 2011 Neil & Simone Lester retired from the business. The business continues to be run with the original ethos of strong customer care, relationships and technological mastery. Internet speed increased, which saw the birth of the “Cloud”
In December 2014 WWCS WW Acquires Freedman IT Solutions (FIT). FIT offered IT Support Services on a pay per hour service to 59 Small Businesses in London. The acquisition assisted in the companies growth objectives.
In winter 2015, the business moved into purpose-built corporate offices in Brent Cross, supporting growth to a team of 14. That same year, Marc Lester was selected for the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses programme — an experience that gave him valuable insight to help shape where WWCS is today.
At the beginning of 2018, WWCS joined the Ingram Micro Trust X Alliance; the premier global community for top-performing solution providers. Trust X is a member-powered network comprising of over 340 IT solution providers worldwide with proven leaders in the midsize and enterprise business markets. Along with this partnership, WWCS completes certifications in ISO9001 & ISO27001
WWCS makes further investment in VOIP Infrastructure and telecoms solutions for WWCS Clients.
We are proud to have obtained Microsoft Gold Partner and have completed the acquisition of Marsworth Computing; an IT consultancy of 16 staff focused on Education & Public Sector clients.<br />
Closing the digital divide… Proud to be doing such important work with Saracens Group again... cleaning and preparing laptops for distribution to local schools for children and families who don't have access to computers at home.
The starting point for the business's sustainability plans for the coming years. The venture at Microsoft in Paddington helped shape a clear road map for how WWCS will embed sustainable practice into its operations and client services going forward."
A bit of a sideline for us at WWCS … Our Vintage Tech collection hits 150 pieces (from Apple iPhone, to Commodore 64 and Amiga's, to JVC camcorders and speak-and-spell to PlayStation 1 and most tech in-between!)
To be recognised at this level, against some of the most innovative businesses in our industry, is something we’re incredibly proud of. We’re also honoured to be named Finalists for MSP of the Year – Sub £10m & Partner of the Year – up to £100m. Well done team WWCS!
WWCS opened a new office in Sheffield, marking the business's expansion beyond London and bringing its expertise to clients across the North of England
