Part of the Globus travel group, Avro was the first UK company dedicated to offering (flight) seat only charter bookings including holiday insurance, car hire and airport parking. Previously running on Sequoia systems, Avro found that it was not coping with its 16 per cent year on year business growth. Avro decided to migrate to HP and found the solution with HP partner Preferred Computers and Networks of Manchester, UK. To support the 'Always-on' needs of its HP-UX environment, Avro is one of the biggest UK companies to use the HP IT Resource Centre (ITRC) service, the on-line source of expert support in maintaining systems, learning about new technologies, collaborating with other users and planning IT changes.
