INFINITE Office Solutions, a business based in the British Virgin Islands (BVI) for over 30 years, recently opened its first office in Guyana.

Managing Director, John Cline, said that they are proud to play a part in Guyana’s development, noting that their services and products will help to develop businesses all across the country.

“We are in a digital transformation and we believe that the products that we offer with the partners that we have such as Lenovo, HP, and Microsoft, are all well positioned to help us to achieve goals that we set out to help businesses to achieve their goals,” Cline said.

Present at the launch ceremony was John Edghill, Director of Business, Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Commerce, who said that for far too long, Guyana has operated as a local business landscape.

He noted that they would like to encourage Guyana to have a competitive business nature.

“Given the new oil-and-gas landscape, we are required to have the highest degree of customer service, competency and professionalism and the only way that we will truly get to that 21st century, 2030 vision that we’re looking at as a country, is if we have the competitive nature of those who are coming in with an already in-built, best-practice framework,” Director Edghill said.

He said that the government is open to have companies with the necessary expertise, training, and professionalism invest in the country.

“It is not to say that we will lose our patrimony and give up all of our rights to any new investor that comes in, but we are always open to business. The country is open to business from anyone who would like to invest,” he related.

Edghill said that the information technology (IT) landscape that their business brings, blends well with what the government is pushing.

“We want to transition a lot of our businesses to digital means. I will commend this business, I look forward to seeing you bid for government contracts because those opportunities are boundless as well,” he said.

Regional Manager, Tom Zurich, said that the company believes that the services they offer can help Guyana develop.

“We want to use the tool set that we have, the products and the services that we offer to help local businesses, individuals digitally transform and utilize the technologies that are available to further their business, make them more profitable, make it easier to do business and more secure and easier to communicate,” he explained.

Zurich related they offer professional IT services, consultation, hardware and more to improve business processes, and employees’ efficiency.

“So we can provide all of that, we can provide simple hardware. If people just need a printer, a computer, a server, cloud services, software from all the major manufacturers, Microsoft, Adobe…” he said.

The company, in the future, hopes to expand its services to the different regions of Guyana, by setting up offices in different areas.
