IT services provider CompNow has expanded into Western Australia with a new office located in Perth.

The services provider has recently helped non-profit organization Breakthru into a business transformation of its ICT environment across 34 locations in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland.
As part of this project, CompNow introduced Epson's WorkForce Pro RIPS printers to each office and existing laptops were replaced by Microsoft Surface Pro.
Prior to the rollout, CompNow created a system image so devices were fully provisioned and bound to Breakthru’s network before being sent to employees.
According to Breakthru executive leader, business performance Heather Hollingworth, CompNow swapped the devices within 24 hours.
