About Us

Managed IT Services & ERP Software Since 1991

Technology should help your business run better — not become another daily problem to manage.

At The HBP Group, we help growing UK businesses take control of their technology through Managed IT Services and ERP Software that are secure, stable and built to scale. For over 30 years, we’ve supported thousands of organisations by making IT simpler, support more human and systems genuinely useful for growth.

The HBP Group: At A Glance

At The HBP Group, we’re more than just a technology provider. We’re a team of people who care about doing things the right way — for our customers, our colleagues and our communities. Here’s a quick look at who we are, what we stand for, and what makes us different.

Built on 30+ Years of Expertise

Since 1991, we’ve grown from a local IT supplier to a national group supporting thousands of UK businesses with their technology — all while staying independent and people-led.

A People-First Company

We believe great service starts with great people. That’s why we invest in our team, work toward Best Companies accreditation every year and build long-term careers that make a real impact.

Proud to Support Our Communities

Giving back matters to us. From local charity partnerships to team-led initiatives, we’re committed to doing good — not just doing business.

Driven by Purpose

We exist to change the relationship businesses have with technology — turning it from a source of stress into a true enabler of growth.

At The HBP Group, we’ve always believed that technology should empower people — not frustrate them.

Too often, we hear from businesses who feel let down by their systems. IT becomes a source of stress. ERP feels overcomplicated. Support feels impersonal. Projects feel risky and disruptive. That’s not good enough — and it’s exactly what we set out to change.

Our purpose is simple:

To change the way businesses experience and benefit from technology.

Technology should be an enabler — helping your people work smarter, your processes run smoother, and your business grow faster. That’s what we deliver, every day, through expert support, real partnerships, and a proven approach that’s designed to drive progress without disruption.

Our Approach: Stabile. Adopt. Enable.

We don’t believe in overwhelming businesses with massive technology projects. We build a foundation that supports growth — step by step.

Stabilise

Eliminate downtime, reduce risk, and stop IT fire drills through proactive Managed IT Services.

Adopt

Implement the right tools and software as your business grows — including cloud platforms, productivity solutions and ERP Software.

Enable

Optimise your systems so your team can work faster, collaborate better, and make confident decisions using connected data.

This approach gives you a clear path forward — without the disruption.

What This Means for Your Business

Without the right partner, businesses often face:

Downtime and lost productivity
Security incidents and compliance risk
Reactive support that never solves root causes
Growth bottlenecks caused by disconnected systems

With The HBP Group:

IT runs smoothly in the background
Leadership feels confident and protected
Employees get fast, reliable support
Systems scale as your business grows
Reporting and operations become more connected over time

From IT and ERP chaos to confident growth.

It All Starts With Great People

We believe great service starts with great people.

That’s why we invest heavily in our team, build long-term careers, and work toward Best Companies accreditation every year. Because when you work with HBP, you’re not just getting great technology — you’re getting great people who genuinely care about the work they do and the customers they support.

Proud to Support Our Communities

Giving back matters to us.

From local charity partnerships to team-led initiatives, we’re committed to making a positive impact — not just doing business. We support the communities where we live and work, and we encourage our people to get involved in causes that matter to them.

Because real impact starts close to home.

Let’s Change the Way You See Technology

Whether you’re stuck with outdated systems, frustrated by IT bottlenecks, or simply looking for a better way forward — we’re here to help you take that next step.

With the right partner, technology isn’t just easier. It’s transformational.
