Experienced leadership
Coming from the corporate world, and with 21 years of IT experience, our MD Richard Davies led a team of over 30 staff across Europe, US and Africa delivering IT services to over 25,000 employees, rolling out multi-million pound projects & integrating systems to make cost effective solutions. Managing annual budgets in excess of £10,000,000 per year. Working on proposals and delivering solutions for key Clients like the UK MOD.
Ethics
We firmly believe as a team that having good business ethics is absolutely key to building strong and long lasting relationships. We deliver on our promises, we honour our agreements, and will always be fair and stay on the right side of the law. We want to build our business alongside our clients, because we know that if we help in your growth and success, then that is where we also find ours.
Expert team
Unlike the IT firms of just one or two people, Compio has a team of dedicated IT personnel waiting to take your support issues and start working on them. Our SLA (Service Level Agreement) ensures we strive to deliver world-class service. Our team of experts pride themselves on their speed, accuracy and focus to find a resolution. We also incentivise our team uniquely in the industry so quality, volume and customer care are all measured equally.
Ethos
Being part of our local communities is important to us and we do a lot of work with local schools and charities. We assisted at a business level to help a local pre-school remain open by helping them put a financial recovery plan together, and we still assist when required as an advisor to the new directors. We also provide time & resources to help support other local community projects and events.
Our Approach
It all starts with you. Although we are an IT Services provider, we try ur best not to hide behind our technology or jargon. We like face to face relationships with our clients and at an initial meeting with you we want to hear about you and your business, your future plans and your dreams, what currently works well and where you would like to see improvements, and we put together a plan with you using IT as a facilitator to work towards these goals, in the most efficient and cost effective way possible.
For us it’s all about the people, and we really care about getting our approach right, our clients tell us all the time that it’s one of the things they love most about us.
We’re all about the long term, we’re proud of the fact that nearly all of our business is through word of mouth, for us there is no greater tribute than a client recommending us to their own clients and business network
Meet The Team
My special skills are: I’m a lateral thinker & I love to solve problems, but IT Security, Networking and Governance are my favourite areas, and even though I shouldn’t be doing the technical stuff I can’t help but get involved if I see the team working on interesting projects or challenges in these areas, well it is all about the team.
Tell us a little about you:
I live at the foot of the Chiltern hills with my wife, 2 children and our family dog.

We try to spend as much time as we can with the kids, and with football and cheerleading training we are kept busy at weekends but still like to find time for little adventures, we love to travel, and enjoy holidaying in Tenerife and America.
I love football (Lifelong Everton fan here!) I am also a bit of a movie buff, particularly Sci-Fi but also action / adventure, trips out to the Cinema with the family take up many a Sunday afternoon.
My Favourite movie quote is from Apollo 13 (1995), Gene Kranz: “Let’s work the problem people. Let’s not make things worse by guessing.”
Super power:
My Super power is not accepting everything at face value, I need to challenge and understand something before I accept it. Just because it hasn’t been done before don’t mean it can’t be done or shouldn’t be done differently!
