More Information

Why does industry domain experience matter in systems integration?

In high-consequence sectors like CNI or Energy, a purely technical vendor without domain knowledge risks operational downtime, regulatory breaches, or safety hazards. Sword’s engineering teams bring decades of sector-specific experience directly into project execution, operating within hazardous environments (ATEX) and strict regulatory frameworks.

Does Sword operate on public sector procurement frameworks?

Yes. Sword is an approved supplier across major UK public sector frameworks, including Crown Commercial Service (CCS) G-Cloud, Digital Outcomes and Specialists (DOS), and regional devolved government call-off structures.

How does Sword support energy operators through M&A transitions and asset carve-outs?

Sword provides end-to-end M&A IT execution, auditing legacy environments, establishing independent cloud tenants, migrating active directory structures, and deploying 24/7 managed support to guarantee early exit from Transition Service Agreements (TSAs) without operational disruption.
