Case Study: Hymans Robertson achieves greater efficiency and cost savings with Microsoft Corporation

Microsoft technology boosts efficiency at Hymans Robertson

Hymans Robertson, a leading UK pension consultancy, needed a more cost-controlled way to manage hosting and scale power based on demand rather than commit to a fixed-term contract. The company also faced communication challenges because many consultants travel between offices and client sites, making it harder to stay connected. Microsoft Corporation’s Azure and Skype for Business, along with Office 365 and Surface Pro 3, were used to address these needs.

Microsoft Corporation implemented Azure to let Hymans Robertson scale resources as required, reducing potential capital expenditure on on-premises data centres. Skype for Business improved communication across the organisation and replaced the PBX phone system company-wide. As a result, Hymans Robertson streamlined operations, lowered costs, and delivered a faster, more effective service to clients while strengthening its position as a sector leader.
