Allow us to introduce
ourselves
Itec is a leading provider of a
comprehensive suite of business
solutions. Since 1996 we have been
specifying, supplying and backing up
customised technology solutions that
enable our clients to simplify their
operations and run their businesses
more efficiently and cost effectively.
Years of experience and an innovative
approach have enabled us to
consolidate and build a substantial
operation which has set us apart and
made us an industry leader.
Our proven ability to deliver is
underpinned by the strong partnerships
we have cemented with many of the
world’s best-of-breed technology
vendors and network operators. This
allows us to offer our clients a range
of trusted best-of-breed brands to
choose from.
we work smart
We are a dynamic and growing
business with a culture of innovative
thinking and a commitment to
constant improvement.
Some examples:
Sentry, our proprietary diagnostic tool,
is a proactive device that sends real-
time alerts to us such as when a printer
is running low on consumables.
Itec was the first company in Africa to
offer Mitel and Samsung PBX solutions
in the cloud.
Our breakthrough business and
education apps are set to transform
the way companies and educational
institutions operate and how users go
about their business and studies.
We make things simple
Our network of 47 offices enables us to
service your regional offices, branches
and franchises throughout the country.
Our automated National Resolution
Centre is reached by dialling a single
number regardless of where you
are located. Backed by 300 expert
technicians, Itec is in a position to
provide on-site and remote services to
clients who operate in either a single
location or a multi-branch network.
Our SLAs make provision for a six hour
turnaround time for on-site service calls.
we solve problems
Cookie cutters should be consigned
to the kitchen. Our approach is to first
understand your specific challenges
and second, customise a practical
solution that is both smart and
simple. We put our hands up. Taking
responsibility and being accountable
are two things we live by. A problem is
nothing more than something in need
of a solution and we won’t back down
until we find it for you.
Our single source
capability, together
with our innovative,
flexible approach and
desire to please, are the
reasons that over 16,000
clients entrust their
business technology
solutions to us.

Solutions designed to satisfy your BUSINESS needs
What we value
Innovation is a way of life
We take an innovative approach to
everything we do. From the way we
interact with clients; to the insights we
have to add more value to our solutions;
to the manner in which we back them
up. We like to think differently, change
things for the better and then continue
to seek out additional improvements
and efficiencies.
Excellence. Always
To provide you with best-of-breed
expertise and services, we build our
team by seeking out smart, dedicated,
energetic people who will always
put your needs first while stretching
their talents to the limit in an effort to
surprise you.
We can do it
Can’t is our least favourite word in the
English language. We believe that
nothing is impossible – even under the
most challenging circumstances. It’s an
attitude that has served us well for over
two decades and we see no reason why
we should adopt a different one now.
Above all else – Trust
Trust between a client and a service
provider is the cement that builds solid
businesses. We start a relationship
with a simple goal – to earn your trust.
We do it by being accountable, by
delivering on our promises and by being
there when you need us. Trust doesn’t
happen overnight. It accrues slowly
with day-after-day service delivery.
That is how we have built long lasting
relationships with thousands of clients.
We also foster a culture of trust in our
company. Our team collaborates closely
and backs each other up. The result is
service levels that set the benchmark in
our industry.
MOBILITY
Work out of the office as
if you are in it.
PRODUCTIVITY

to improve the output of
your workforce.
SECURITY
Information and asset
protection 24/7.
ACCESSIBILITY

costs by using pay-per-
use models.
FLEXIBILITY
Both in our services which
can be scaled on demand
and in the financial
models we offer.
AGILITY
Geared to help you adapt
quickly to changing
market conditions.
SIMPLICITY
Complexity takes your
eye off the ball – we like
to keep things simple.

Print AND Document
Management Solutions
Print, copy, fax and scan at
the touch of a button and
improve information and
data security, while making
your operations more agile
in this fast-moving business
environment. Our complete
document-management
and print solutions optimise
everyday tasks and give you
reliable and cost-effective
processes to meet your
everyday business needs.
Print management
In today’s tough business climate,
scrutinising every expense is an
effective competitive strategy, yet
90% of organisations don’t know or
underestimate their document output
costs. The uncomfortable reality is
that printing and imaging can cost
the average enterprise up to 3% of
annual revenues – substantial amounts
of cash that are better directed to your
bottom line.
Electronic Content
Management
M-Files enterprise content management
(ECM) solutions transform how
businesses manage, secure and share
information, with a unique metadata-
driven approach that organises and
processes content based on what it is,
rather than where it resides.
FaxMail
It’s true that the best things in life are
free. FaxMail is Itec’s 100% free fax-to-
email service. FaxMail eliminates the
need for an extra fax line, fax machine,
fax paper and maintenance. With
FaxMail, privacy is guaranteed since
faxes don’t “float” around the office
waiting to land on the right desk,
but are delivered directly to the
designated inbox.

functionality such as advanced online-
finishing capabilities, professional

superior service to our clients.
Our financing options have been
designed to make the optimisation
of your office technology simple. The
advantage of dealing with Itec Finance
is that you deal with one company –

business, offer the flexibility you require
or share the approach to customer
satisfaction that we do.

resolution. When necessary, technical
personnel are deployed to resolve

Strategies for
Sustainability
To us sustainability is
more than just an aspect
of corporate social
responsibility – it’s good
for business. Sustainability
drives innovation,
inspires employees and
shareholders, and helps
companies operate more
efficiently.
Itec is independently
audited and is an
accredited Level 1
contributor to BBBEE –
the highest level, which
has been achieved by
very few companies in
our industry.
Our environmental strategy focuses on
reducing the impact of the equipment
we supply to clients. We partner with
suppliers who share our commitment
to the sustainable use of the planet’s
resources.
For example, we partnered with
impactChoice to become the first
solutions company in South Africa
to offer our clients an audited and
recognised carbon-offset programme.
Through impactChoice we are able to
issue valid certificates that effectively
neutralise the impact of their printing
and copying functions in a simple
automated manner.
We continue to drive government’s
transformation objectives, both
within our company and the
broader community. In partnership
with our BBBEE partner Ikamva
Labantu, we are active participants
in a range of corporate social
investment programmes designed
to spur entrepreneurship in poor
communities and to uplift previously
disadvantaged people.
Purposeful
empowerment

In association with
In our own business,

our impact by

and disposing of

in an environmentally
sound manner.
