About Us
Why soVision IT Exists
soVision IT was founded in 1999 and is led today by a senior leadership team that includes Alex Wellings, Managing Director; Brian Carpenter, CEO; Colin McCleery, Strategic Planning Director; and Justin Mawer, Technical Director. From our roots around Bristol, Keynsham, Bath, and the wider South West, we have grown around a simple idea: business technology should support the organisation, not distract from it.
Many organisations come to soVision IT after dealing with IT support that feels too slow, too reactive, or too difficult to understand. They may be losing time to recurring issues, worrying about cyber threats, questioning whether Microsoft 365 is configured securely, or struggling to get clear guidance before making technology decisions.
That frustration shaped the way we work. We focus on practical recommendations, plain-English communication, proactive monitoring, security-led support, and long-term planning that connects technology to business goals. Our clients include SMEs, charities, councils, academies, professional services firms, and other organisations that need reliable systems, stronger resilience, and a clear route forward.
Today, soVision IT brings together managed IT support, cyber security, cloud expertise, connectivity, software development, and strategic technology advice. The point is not to make IT more complicated. It is to help organisations across Bristol, Bath, and the South West make confident decisions, reduce avoidable disruption, and prepare for what comes next.
How We Approach the Work
These principles describe how soVision IT supports organisations across Bristol, Bath, the South West, and beyond.
Proactive Before Reactive
We do not see IT support as a waiting game. Monitoring, maintenance, documentation, backup verification, and regular reviews all help reduce disruption and give clients better visibility into their technology.
Security Built Into Everyday IT
Cyber security is not treated as a separate afterthought. Endpoint protection, email security, patching, Microsoft 365 best practices, user awareness, and risk reviews are part of how we help clients strengthen their overall posture.
Plain-English Guidance
Technology advice should help leaders make better decisions, not leave them confused. soVision IT focuses on practical recommendations, honest explanations, and clear next steps that connect IT choices to business priorities.
Prepared for What Comes Next
Modern organisations need systems that can support cloud adoption, automation, AI readiness, and future growth. We help clients put the structure, security, and planning in place before change becomes urgent.
