Redcentric refines strategy to focus on managed services
Redcentric, an IT managed services provider based in Harrogate, says it has re-aligned its sales team and strategy to pursue opportunities in the health sector, particularly with new UK Integrated Care Boards structures. The company recently completed the sale of its eight data centres, and its CEO noted ongoing high costs for hardware and chips due to regional instability.
What changed for Redcentric
Redcentric says it has re-focused its business on managed services rather than owning and operating data centres. The sales team has been re-aligned to target opportunities related to Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) in the UK, which oversee local health services. The sale of the eight data centres completed this strategic shift, moving the company toward contracts that support health-sector IT needs instead of owning physical infrastructure.
Who is affected or involved
Potentially affected are Redcentric’s customers in the health sector that need managed IT services, as well as competitors in healthcare IT procurement. The shift may influence how NHS-style health bodies interact with external IT providers for continuity, compliance, and support services. Redcentric’s staff in the sales and services teams are adapting to new market targets and structures like the ICBs.
Practical next steps for readers
If you are in UK healthcare IT procurement, monitor whether Redcentric announces new contracts or case studies with ICBs. For investors or partners, look for updates on how the company performs in the health sector and any commentary on hardware cost pressures that could affect service pricing. For IT buyers, consider evaluating providers that offer managed services aligned to NHS-style governance and compliance needs.
