Areas we cover in Edinburgh
Edinburgh IT supply questions
Do you have an Edinburgh office?
No — Servnet operates from our Surrey HQ and a UK-wide engineer + parts network. For EH postcodes we ship parts overnight and dispatch engineers via train or flight as required. Most Edinburgh contracts run on a next-business-day SLA, with same-week response for P1 / P2 incidents.
Can you supply Scottish Government and Scottish public sector?
Yes — Crown Commercial Service frameworks (G-Cloud, Technology Services 4, Cyber Security Services 4) apply across the UK including Scottish Government, NHS Scotland and local authorities. Scottish Procurement frameworks also available for specific Scottish-government routes.
What's your experience with the Edinburgh asset management cluster?
Edinburgh's buy-side tech estate has familiar shape — FIX engines, market-data feeds, Bloomberg / FactSet workstations, end-of-day batch infrastructure, FCA Operational Resilience evidence. We support several FCA-regulated firms and bring the buyer-side knowledge that comes with that.
How fast can you respond in Edinburgh for an urgent firewall failure?
For contracted 4-hour SLA accounts in Edinburgh we keep cold-spare FortiGate / Palo Alto / Cisco hardware in our UK depot for next-flight or next-train courier — typical end-to-end recovery 6–12 hours from call. For non-contracted ad-hoc work, recovery depends on engineer availability and depot stock.
Need an IT partner in Edinburgh?
