Many IT service companies have sprung up to meet the needs of companies in this area. Some of them have been set up just recently. But a few have lasted decades, and have become household names in Nigeria’s technology industry. Resourcery is an IT services firm that belongs in the latter category. Leveraging on its competencies in business applications and communications solutions, as well as computing, storage, and managed services, it has helped numerous businesses in Nigeria to fashion and upgrade the technologies they require to operate efficiently. Founded in 1985, Resourcery began as a small firm serving a limited number of clients. Over the years, it’s grown significantly, thanks to the skill and foresight of its management team. Today, the company delivers products and services to its clients from its offices in Lagos and Abuja, as well as Accra in Ghana. In the time since its founding, it has transited from a privately-held establishment to a publicly owned organization with more than a thousand shareholders having a stake in it (the transition took place in 2008). Much of its expansion has been fueled in part by this move. The services on offer from Resourcery range from business voice and video solutions to network infrastructure solutions, as well as voice and video solutions, among others. Its range of products has expanded over the years, with more added to its suite of solutions as growing demand for them is detected. Through its subsidiary (TriVersa), Resourcery provides business application solutions to numerous businesses. This aspect of its operations involves assisting firms with the implementation of solutions from such vendors as Microsoft, SAS, EMC, HP, and Oracle. The products cover a wide range of needs: analytics, business intelligence, data management, enterprise solutions, and IT security. The business voice and video products available from Resourcery include IP telephony (which makes voice calls over the internet possible), call and contact centre (communication system for resolving customer issues and tracking staff interaction with customers), video conferencing, Digital Media Systems (DMS), and unified communication (which links voice, video, data, and mobile applications).
