Durham CC Education ITSS selects Gemini Help Desk to support over 400 schools

The Information and Technical Support Service (ITSS) within the Education Department of Durham County Council is implementing the Gemini Help Desk system to help streamline its operations and improve the IT support service that it provides to over 400 schools in Durham, Darlington and Hartlepool.

“We want to resolve a much higher percentage of calls at the first level of contact, thereby providing a more responsive service, whilst enabling us to deal with a larger volume of calls,” states Brian Whitehead, Head of ITSS. “We believe that Gemini will play a major part in helping us to achieve this.”

The service is amalgamating three support operations in order to provide a single point of contact for all IT issues. Previously, support for curriculum computing (i.e. classroom PCs), management computing (i.e. PCs used for schools administration) and engineering repairs and technical support, was provided by three separate teams using Uniserve, Richmond Help Desk and an in-house developed Access system.
