University Campus Suffolk, Ipswich
"Now that the dust has settled on the opening of the Waterfront Building and we have lived in the space for 6 months we have had time to reflect on the project.
There is no doubt that Malcolm Andrew played its part in the success of the opening. Your installation team performed to the highest standards throughout, not only achieving the near impossible of getting everything in place on time for the opening but doing it with such good humour.
Rest assured that we will be talking to you again when we reach the appropriate time in phase 2.
I look forward to our mutually beneficial business relationship for many years to come."

Flegg High School, Norwich.
"When we were looking to purchase furniture for our new business centre and offices we contacted Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions (MAOS).
MAOS promptly provided us with free on-site consultations and produced 3D and scale room layouts enabling us to visualise what rooms would look like even before the builders had moved out.
Having dealt with many furniture companies in the past we found that Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions not only met but exceeded our expectations on price, installations and after care service.
I found Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions were flexible and we have called upon them a few times now to supply other furniture around the school. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions to fellow project managers and Schools."

Frank Stockley, Suffolk County Council (St Felix School)
The staff and pupils of St Felix School moved into their new buildings at the beginning of term 2009. This has been achieved as a result of enormous effort from a number of colleagues including Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions.
I am aware that many individuals have contributed with their time and skills to ensure the successful outcome that has been delivered. The equivalent of 18 months planning and construction has been compressed into just a few months and has inevitably led to stress and friction at times. However, all concerned have maintained their professional attitude to ensure that a good job was well done.
The whole school and wider community were shocked at the sudden loss of their buildings. Your hard work and commitment to getting the job done has ensured that they were back on the St Felix site as quickly as possible.
On behalf of St Felix School and the County Council I would like to formally place on record our sincere thanks for your part in this important project.

Trevor Kirton, Ipswich Town Football Club
At Ipswich Town Football Club, we needed a supplier that could take the complications out of ordering office supplies, to help us with obtaining supplies for many different departments; over several locations and a need to keep strict budget control.
When we contacted Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions to look at how they could help us with our office supplies, they came back to us with a tailor made package that took account of all our buying issues and provided us with a solution that has helped us immensely with our buying.
Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions have provided us with an ordering system that takes the hassle from ordering supplies. We are set up on their online ordering system that provides us with cost centres to help us with budget management and we receive one invoice per month with a set of reports that breaks down what has been spent where as this is an important part of our ordering and budget control.
Their excellent customer service team and prompt next day delivery service only adds efficiency to the day to day running of the football club.
Overall Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions have been providing us with a superb service which we hope will continue to be a good working partnership.

Julie Bridges, East Suffolk Mind
As a charity based organisation with multiple locations across Suffolk we needed a supplier who could be competitive on price but also service all our remote sites.
We were approached by Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions and were informed that they could help us with our cost saving exercise but also still provide a high service level to all our premises.
They put together a tailor made package which was comparatively more competitive on price but also offered a free of charge, next day delivery service to all our sites; an added bonus to our busy services, who often would pay high street prices on standard stationery items they had run out of and needed replacing urgently.
As a charity, keeping costs to a minimum is important to us. We have experienced many advantages of the next day delivery service and not just of monetary value either; storage space has reduced, staff are ordering the products they need and not the products they think they’re going to run out of and our internal post costs have almost depleted.
Malcolm Andrew Office Solutions have provided us with an excellent service to date, have helped us save money and are also supportive and appreciative of the work that we do. Long may the relationship continue.
