About ITomica
Keeping your staff online
and operational
ITomica was formed in 2015 by Martin Tomlinson, Michael Lynam and Asif Ali to address a gap in the market where organisations need a partner to work as an extension to their IT department. Understandably, where possible, companies will look to place their IT support function in “low cost locations" but they still need to deploy IT hardware and that requires physical interaction with equipment. With our extensive experience in the Life Sciences sector and knowledge and understanding of the intricacies of how these organisations operate, it seemed natural and fitting to offer our specialist service to these types of organisations.
A common scenario where our services represent real value in this sector is when a company has moved much of its IT support function “offshore” and conducts most IT support remotely. In these situations, while there is a cost reduction delivered by employing IT people in “low-cost centres”, there is still a need for local IT people to perform physical activities than cannot be accomplished remotely.

“ITomica have supported all of our UK offices for over 5 years now, and the service has been seamless and of an exceptional standard. Whether it is setting up desks for upcoming new hires, or resolving on site IT hardware issues, ITomica have been both responsive and flexible when it comes to our local offices demands. As well as hardware set up and support, ITomica have also been able to provide resource to support the facilities team during various projects which has been a huge help and I would happily recommend them to any companies looking for IT deployment and local office support services."
Laura Martin
Senior Manager, Key Projects
ITomica have recently assisted us with some office closures, relocation and downsizing projects. These projects have involved tasks such as taking down a whole network, and complete removal of network infrastructure, and physical set up of the network equipment in the new location. They have also assisted in completely clearing floors of IT equipment and setting up desks with various IT equipment at a number of locations. These projects have always been to tight timelines and I am happy to say that ITomica have always stepped up and met all of the project timelines, proficiently and ahead of schedule. Communication has always been excellent from ITomica throughout these projects I would have no issue recommending ITomica for any upcoming projects you may have and will certainly be working with them again in the future.
Steven Ennis
Real Estate Project Manager
Over the years, ITomica and ICON have developed a strong working relationship. They have been especially helpful in Europe, deploying hardware on a daily basis to over 20 different countries. Their robust processes ensure that users receive correctly configured hardware in a timely manner. They are our first port of call when we’re looking for an IT partner for projects. Last year, when the pandemic first took hold, they accelerated the deployment of laptops to those that needed them, and they demonstrated a great deal of flexibility for an integration project that we undertook just while lockdowns were becoming a global “norm”. They have always been happy to help with projects in the US if we’ve needed them. I look forward to continuing to work with ITomica going forward.
Ray Craven
Director, IT Operations
I’ve been working with ITomica for over 5 years now. In that time they have deployed around 7,000 laptops to our user community. I have always found them to be responsive, diligent and efficient. They have worked with our company to develop reliable processes around hardware deployment, and they have worked with us over the years on a number of projects, delivering on time and on budget. We have come to think of them as a natural extension of our IT department and they’ve never let us down.
