Wilson HTM signs up for IntraPower cloud computing
Wilson HTM Investment Group has struck a $16 million deal with the information technology and communications group IntraPower to migrate its complete IT infrastructure and application delivery to the IntraPower cloud computing platform, Business On-Demand.
Wilson HTM will no longer require any in-house IT infrastructure or systems and staff will access their virtual desktop, which includes Windows, Microsoft Office and industry-specific applications, through IntraPower’s network.
Commenting on the new agreement with IntraPower, Wilson HTM chief David Groth said the company now has access to an environment it would not be able to cost effectively create in-house.
“Our IT will be less complex and more responsive to the growth and innovation initiatives of the business,” Groth said.
“This agreement with Wilson HTM is the largest in the company’s history and endorses our investment in our trusted cloud platform to leverage the high growth potential of this market opportunity,” said the managing director of IntraPower, Greg Kennish.
