We started out as Tech Computing Ltd and quickly established a confident customer base in Warrington Cheshire. We worked with various business sectors with significant contracts to supply and support services to major companies in the North West of England. EDAC has many years of experience in the IT industry and a wide range of technical products and services. These products and services include technical advice on and supply of hardware and software, data security, telecoms, networking and business continuity. With all these services it means that EDAC is an excellent partner for ALL IT requirements.
We have continued to develop sound and successful relationships with over 50 % of Warrington Schools which has, over recent years, expanded into Cheshire West, Halton, Salford, Knowsley and The Wirral. This is primarily due to EDAC providing committed, fast, reliable and efficient ICT services with a professional and personal approach to all our customers and has led to a trustworthy reputation in this sector that we are immensely proud of.
More and more companies in the UK are putting profits and sales above quality customer care. More than half of our contracts come via recommendations from existing customers, and it is important to us that you are happy with the level of service and after care we provide.
From initial contact we provide free consultation to discuss your Information Technology requirements. We listen to your needs and form detailed recommendations in plain English. For invitations to tender, we provide a detailed portfolio for your perusal, and offer a first class audit of any existing systems. Warranties for your new technology are included with all new systems with options for a more comprehensive support contract. Existing systems can also be covered by support contracts that can be tailored to your specific requirements.
Why EDAC?
We are leading Providers of ICT Support in Schools.
Being a trusted partner in the field we see many different views and approaches to the challenges and changes ahead but what remains constant is our commitment to our customers and their ability to deliver a first class education to our Children.
EDAC Solutions is proud to be the ICT Partner of Warrington Primary Academy Trust, having managed the move from LA maintained status with the migration of ICT platforms to one single network, redesign of the email systems, data backup, SIMS and Finance packages and ongoing support to ensure the smooth transition with a future proof planned structure.
If your School, or cluster, is considering Academy conversion please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss how we can help and / or advise.
I just wanted to drop an email to say how impressed I have been with Adam this year. He has such a lovely manner and nothing is ever too much trouble for him. He doesn't always know the answers to our questions or problems but always works hard to find out how it can be solved. He always comes back with something to try and is always honest in his approach to things.
It is so important to be personable and Adam has this in buckets - he is an excellent ambassador for your company.
Thank you for all you do to support us.

EDAC have been extremely proactive and supportive in the transfer of our IT systems. Turnaround on queries has been swift and resolution to issues explained in non-technical language. Nothing has been too much trouble, including out of hours updates to ensure minimal loss of connectivity. As with any new and updated system there are minor snags, but these are being tracked and traced with vigour and I could not ask for a more responsive service.

I have used EDAC for a number of years now and have been, and continue to be, so impressed with the service they offer. The team at EDAC are highly experienced in providing infrastructure, networking, managed services and strategic consultancy bespoke for our school. I always feel they want the very best for us in every way. The security measures they provide minimise threats to vulnerable children. I have always been impressed with the speed at which they action any request made whether that be sourcing new equipment or solving onsite problems. Their online system for reporting on site issues is also most efficient. The staff are incredibly friendly and have developed exceptionally close relationships with all members of the school community. I have used a range of companies over the years for IT but EDAC are by far the best. I can confidently and without hesitation, recommend them as excellent value for money.

I write this testimonial without any exceptions. Green Lane School have worked with EDAC for approximately 15 years. We brought EDAC in as they had a reputation for quality and we needed an innovative and reliable service given that we could see that the use of, and need for, reliable ICT would only grow going forward. As an all-age special school with ambitions to establish an outstanding reputation we needed a team we could rely on and who would join us on that journey. EDAC have certainly stepped up to the plate and have been a part of our achieving four consecutive outstanding Ofsted judgements.
Some six years ago we relocated to a new site providing additional provision for our learners which, in itself, presented challenges. The ICT aspect of this move was handled professionally and smoothly by EDAC and as time has gone by we have increased the role EDAC play in our school community to the point that they are now an integral part of our team on a daily basis including managing our email systems, cloud based solutions, server management, backups and day to day support.

Having worked with EDAC at my previous school as Deputy Head, and seen the level of professionalism and enthusiasm all their team displayed in my dealings with them, I was keen to bring EDAC on board when I moved to Bewsey Lodge as Head Teacher. A major redevelopment of the school was to be undertaken including a completely new IT provision to complement the outstanding new build of the school. Every step of the way EDAC were both pro active and responsive to some very specific requirements. As Education specialists they understand the very unique needs of a school, it’s staff and the learners. I am happy to say EDAC have never once faltered and I continue to rely on their friendly, dedicated and professional service to this day. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services.

I have worked with EDAC for many years and have always felt they put the customer relationship and the very specific needs of the Education Sector at the top of their priorities. Nothing is too much trouble and their friendly and efficient staff are always available for anything from a major project to expert advice.
In a rapidly evolving ICT world, EDAC are able to explain the pros and cons of various options in a non-technical and logical way enabling our Senior Leaders to make informed and practical decisions.
I would have no hesitation in recommending EDAC to any school looking for a highly efficient and reliable team of specialists.

EDAC have worked with Evelyn Street Primary School for many years and were an integral part of the team when we took the decision to for Warrington Primary Academy Trust.
This trust has grown from an initial three schools to currently six with plans to grow further. EDAC brought an innovative and strategic approach to these changes and have been responsible for the implementation and continued management of all our ICT Systems. Everything from Servers, Workstations, email systems, Cloud Solutions and Backup are managed day to day by the team at EDAC with complete efficiency.
Faced with the challenges of the COVID pandemic and lockdown, EDAC were able to implement a remote learning digital platform rapidly allowing us to deliver live lessons, set assignments, manage our Governor, Trust Board and Staff Meeting in a virtual environment with cloud connectivity and storage.
In summary EDAC have been invaluable, and I look forward to working with them for many years to come
