Wednesday 08 February 2012

Under the Agreement, Digital Crew will focus on its highly successful TeamworkPM business which has rapidly expanded over recent years while Granite Consulting will take over responsibility for all website development with the core website development team at Digital Crew joining the Granite Consulting business.

Speaking about the agreement, Sam Kidd, Director of Digital Crew said that “Due to success of TeamworkPM, our software development team made the critical decision to concentrate their efforts wholly on the successful application. Once that decision was made we needed to find a strong partner who could take over and improve the web development side of our business.

"We had worked well with Granite on a number of projects and knew that our web clients would be in very safe hands with them. They are also extremely strong on the web marketing side of the business, which is an extra service that we know our existing clients will benefit from”

"This collaboration is great news for both companies. We are looking forward to working with the Digital Crew web team and using their superb CMS system and we can also provide valuable online marketing expertise to those clients. We work well with the Digital Crew team and this was a huge motivation behind the takeover"
