tThe challenge and the idea

In March 2020 , as the UK headed towards its first lockdown , Babble proposed taking Kiely Bros ’ on-premises environment and transporting it to the cloud – equipping the business for the new world of work .
With a Birmingham head office and four other regional sites across the country , Kiely Bros found that its ageing physical network had been hindering productivity for its 150 staff at the time and the prospect of cloud transformation promised a more resilient solution .
Tom O ’ Donnell , Director at Kiely Bros , said : “ The prospect of lockdown highlighted the importance of making a shift from our old ways of working . It was a wake-up call , as suddenly we had no option but to pivot , as so many businesses did , to allow our staff to do their work with as little disruption as possible . Babble helped take us through that journey , bringing our technology deployment into the modern day .”
By this time , Kiely Bros had already spent 10 successful years working with Babble as its partner in advancing Digital Transformation .
