About the project.

As one of the most successful FE colleges in the UK, enrolling over 12,000 students each year across 4,000 programmes, and with an annual turnover of around £50 million, Dudley College of Technology needs scalable, flexible and futureproof ERP solutions.

The Journey with QuickThink Cloud

In 2016, Dudley College of Technology implemented Unit4 Business World, requiring modern and comprehensive solutions adept for FE financial needs. Through collaboration with Highpoint Services, one of our ERP specialist support partners, QuickThink Cloud were able to provide technical consultancy and facilitate a smooth implementation.

When Dudley College of Technology then sponsored the creation of the Dudley Academies Trust in 2017, they knew their on-prem hosting would not be enough. In order to achieve seamless use of their Unit4 system across four school locations, cloud hosting was required. As a relationship had already been developed and QuickThink Cloud’s capabilities demonstrated, Dudley College of Technology knew who to turn to for trustworthy cloud hosting.
