A Hewlett Packard Enterprise Case Study
Softcat Limited, one of the UK’s fastest‑growing IT providers, needed to develop “as‑a‑service” capabilities and a more flexible way to acquire, access and pay for technology to meet rising demand for cloud, converged systems, security and big‑data solutions. To gain the speed and agility required to deliver innovative customer solutions, Softcat partnered with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, leveraging HPE equipment and HPE Financial Services’ flexible IT investment and technology‑refresh offerings.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise, via HPE Financial Services, implemented flexible financing and technology‑refresh programs that eased capacity forecasting, simplified legacy transitions and streamlined customer engagements, enabling Softcat’s sales teams to close larger, more frequent deals faster. The partnership delivered measurable impact — roughly $18M USD of introduced business annually — and helped Softcat Limited scale offerings, grow revenues and margins, and maintain its competitive, service‑oriented edge.
