LONDON, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Logicalis, a leading
global technology services provider, has announced the creation of
a new Asia Pacific entity,
combining its Logicalis Australia and Logicalis Asia operations.
This strategic realignment will be effective from June 01, 2024, and positions Logicalis to amplify
its market presence through increased synergy within the APAC
region.
The combined Logicalis Asia Pacific entity will consolidate
1,600 employees with a collective revenue upwards of $US350 million across 10 countries, including
Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong,
China, Thailand,
Indonesia, Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam, and now Australia. The newly formed entity will be led
by Chong-Win Lee as the Chief
Executive Officer (CEO) of Logicalis Asia Pacific with Anthony Woodward continuing in his role as CEO
of Logicalis Australia and reporting to Chong-Win Lee. In addition to his current
responsibilities, Woodward will lead a special task force focused
on fostering innovation and identifying synergistic, joint
opportunities across the region.
Chong-Win Lee, CEO, Logicalis
APAC, said, "The strategic consolidation of Logicalis' operations
across Australia and Asia marks a pivotal moment in the company's
continued growth and evolution. The aim of this reorganisation is
to build a powerhouse capable of delivering high-impact technology
solutions more efficiently for customers across Asia Pacific, while still providing the local
expertise and support that Logicalis customers value."
The combination is designed to enhance service delivery and
bring a cohesive solution portfolio to customers, reflecting the
alignment of Logicalis Asia's strategy to enable XaaS operating
models to support digital transformation, and Logicalis Australia's
commitment to becoming the best MSP in the country. The combined
operation will deliver seamless access to Logicalis' experience in
industry sectors such as financial services, government and
healthcare, empowering teams to build skill and capacity for data
and application modernisation, cloud managed services, artificial
intelligence (AI), and more. From a security perspective, it will
reinforce the company's powerful customer proposition, giving
customers access to the global network of threat intelligence
research and experience encapsulated in the regional Logicalis
Security Operations Centre (SOC).
Anthony Woodward, CEO, Logicalis
Australia, said, "Formally combining the strengths of Logicalis
Australia and its Asia
counterparts is an acceleration of what has already been happening
organically. This evolution lets Logicalis Australia and our
customers leverage high-value digital capabilities from across the
region, ensuring faster, more competitive, and more comprehensive
service offerings. It also strengthens the local team's onshore
capabilities while integrating best practices and expertise from
across Asia, enabling the delivery
of scalable, cost-effective managed service options for
customers."
The announcement comes at a time when Logicalis has been
increasingly focusing on expanding its core Microsoft and Cisco
businesses, enhancing its capabilities in cloud, cybersecurity, and
managed services. Logicalis Asia has also recently brought
Atlassian onboard as a strategic vendor. Chong-Win Lee, CEO, Logicalis Asia Pacific,
said, "The Logicalis Asia Pacific entity will help the company to
achieve greater influence with vendors and deliver even greater
outcomes for customers into the future."
Bob Bailkoski, global CEO, Logicalis said, "The goal for
Logicalis is clear: to harness the collective strengths of the
company's diverse operations to drive innovation and growth
throughout Australia, Asia, and the globe. This reorganisation
represents a strategic response to the evolving IT landscape and
reinforces Logicalis' commitment to developing solutions that
support its customers' success in the digital age."
