The company, which released its first-half 2007 results last week, saw turnover increase slightly by 4.6
per cent to €68m due to continued investment in bolstering its managed services offering. Net profit for the
six months increased 416.9 per cent to €1.6m.

Graham Jones, chief operating officer at Integralis, said: 'We are moving away from a vendor-led approach to a services-led company. We are starting to drop vendors, but are also standardising on some vendors across the whole group.'

Alastair Edwards, senior analyst at Canalys, said: 'Integralis is pursuing a innovative model and is one of the leaders in that space. But being a leader means it has to take all the risk and invest heavily in its strategy.'
