Origins

Turnstone started life in early 2006. After spectacular improvements in IT costs and service levels whilst working in-house, the founding directors developed IT procurement as a new service offering for other large IT functions.

Since then the company has expanded steadily, offering not just cost reduction but also review of legacy contracts, benchmarking and ITP training.

We believe that IT procurement is uncharted territory for busy IT departments, yet offers unrivalled opportunity for business improvement.

Who We Work For

Our clients are typically FTSE 350 and large public sector organisations with a substantial spend on IT and telecoms.
We work for Chief Information Officers (CIOs), IT Directors and Sourcing Directors who suspect they may be paying too much for their IT products, or who are looking for new ways to evolve their department.

Who We Don’t Work For

We are independent and impartial, we do not sell any software and have no affiliations with any technology suppliers. You can be assured that our advice will always be independent, unbiased and in your interests only.
