CEO Laurence Baynham said the FY15 results reflected the company’s strategy of transitioning from a product centric approach to a service approach in a rapidly changing IT environment.
“We see economic conditions remaining challenging in FY16 with traditional technology investments remaining flat. However, we are seeing digital disruption as a high priority for commercial and public sector organisations and this is attracting increased investment.”
