IT for heritage organisations
Abbeys, churches and heritage attractions run like small businesses in very unusual buildings. There are visitor tills and ticketing, a shop and cafe, guest Wi-Fi, events and venue hire, offices for staff and trustees, and often a large team of volunteers.
Getting reliable connectivity through centuries-old stone, across grounds and into outbuildings needs careful planning, and any installation has to respect the fabric of the building. We plan cabling and wireless coverage with that in mind.
DP-Solutions supports organisations including Glastonbury Abbey and Bath Abbey. Our engineers are based in Yeovil, Glastonbury and Wells, so we are close to many of the region’s historic sites.
