The CIR Business Continuity Awards recognise excellence within the field of business continuity and operational risk management and Peterborough based NetSupport have been named a finalist in the Specialist Business Continuity And Disaster Recovery Company Of The Year category.

Ensuring the ongoing viability and success of their business in the event of a disaster has become a key objective for many business leaders in recent years and the awards were established to bring focus to those Business Continuity providers who excel in their field.

The judges commended NetSupport for the investment they have made, and continue to make, in providing customers with the latest state-of-the-art facilities combined with the highest levels of customer service. A recent extension of the company’s infrastructure has seen an increase in seat capacity as well as the introduction of an additional data-centre and cutting edge fire suppression system.

Commenting on the nomination, NetSupport’s Head of Business Continuity Services, Ravi Pathak said; “We are naturally thrilled to have been recognised by such an established national awards programme. NetSupport have been offering Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery and Server Co-Hosting services since 2003 and we have quickly established ourselves as one of the leading providers in the region, it is very rewarding to now be shortlisted alongside our peers from across the UK.”

Award winners will be announced at a gala dinner in London on May 12th.
