Stockholding and scheduled supply
Where we agree it with you, we source ahead, hold an agreed quantity and release it in planned batches so your build schedule is not waiting on availability.

Account management
People who know your account
Think of your account manager as an extension of your IT or procurement team. They get to know your business, respond to your requirements and stay involved from quotation to after-sales, with as much or as little involvement as you want.
We won’t nag when you don’t need us, but we’ll always be here ready when you do.

Component supply for hardware builders
You build the product. We help source the IT components behind it.
You specify the components. We coordinate the supply.
- Exact part numbers and revisions, with alternatives subject to your team’s technical approval
- Availability checked against your quantities and build dates

- Planned component changes raised when we hear from suppliers

Customer examples
How it works in practice
Keeping specialist scientific systems supplied
A life sciences business builds specialist scientific systems that it sells on. Keyzone sources the specified graphics cards and memory, holds agreed stock and supplies it in batches, so component supply lines up with planned builds.

A customer needed a very specific, unusual component outside typical IT catalogue lines. Keyzone sourced it directly from its manufacturer in Europe and arranged shipment into the UK.

“Becky and Keyzone always go out of their way to help source everything our company needs - no request has ever been too big or too small. Being able to depend on Keyzone to always deliver has really helped our business to thrive.”
