About Us

NewIT Partner is a new technology and consulting services company founded in 2011. The company has been set up to partner with clients to address their specific Technology, Process and Management challenges and opportunities. Where it makes business sense for the client NewIT will assist them to outsource as much of their IT needs as makes sense for their particular business model. NewIT is convinced that for many organisations much of their IT capabilities and resources could be outsourced in a manner that is cost beneficial but still meets the demands of the business drivers. Applications as a service is now available in the Cloud and represents significant opportunities particularly for the small and medium size enterprise to greatly reduce their internal IT resourcing costs allowing them to focus their efforts on their core business while NewIT and the Cloud service provider ensure that the client’s IT is cost effectively and efficiently delivered.

The founder of NewIT Partner is Patrick Dillon who has worked in most roles including Developer, Project and Programme Manager, Consultant, Partner, and Chief Executive for companies as diverse as Ericsson, IBM, Project Management (PM) Group, PMI Software Ltd and Daysha Consulting Ltd.

As a newly formed business NewIT Partner are anxious to meet with potential clients to understand their current Technology, Process and Management challenges and opportunities in order to see if/where NewIT may be able to partner with them to advance  their objectives. NewIT is also interested in meeting with providers of innovative technologies that NewIT may be able to deploy to the benefit of its clients.
