Gold Coast Business Excellence Award for Information Technology and Multimedia

FOR most businesses reducing costs is high on the agenda. Founded in Surfers Paradise in 1996, GCOMM is recognised as one of the leading suppliers of Internet services and computer-integration systems to the Gold Coast business community.
 
GCOMM, which won the Gold Coast Business Excellence Award for Information Technology and Multimedia in October, distinctively combines internet technology and computer systems (hardware and software) solutions to make businesses more productive and reduce operating costs – which is particularly important in the current economic climate.
 
Managing director Dan Thompson said computers and the internet were primarily used to simplify and enhance business processes. “Of equal importance is to ensure that the infrastructure that is invested in is performing to optimal capacity, and as a consequence GCOMM invests in the best technology, partners with leading global vendors and employs only the most experienced staff to service our customers,” he said. “Employee retention and consistency of service is paramount to survival in business.
 
“To illustrate this GCOMM has over 35 per cent of its staff having already reached their 10-year anniversary – this is an amazing achievement, particularly in the IT industry.” GCOMM has also introduced many products to the Gold Coast business community, including business-grade ADSL and SHDSL, spam and virus filtering, high-rise internet and voice-services provision, collocation and server hosting.
 
Mr Thompson said GCOMM also partnered with a number of local Gold Coast IT companies supplying services to their customers. “There are a number of good IT companies and technicians on the Gold Coast and we endeavour to partner with them,” he said. “After all business is long term, and by working closely with these companies we can deliver the best solutions for their customers, which is good for the Gold Coast.”
