Company Overview

su53 Solutions was conceived in 2005 by two visionaries who had been working in aspects of SAP Security for all of their working lives. For years they had seen how business pressures – whether from auditors or from customers, suppliers, the city or the community – were growing, yet the response was not as efficient and focused as it could be. In many situations organisations using SAP were having to react to some incident or issue, and ending up with re-work, recovery and unplanned expense. However there were more and more examples of getting it right – organisations who built in security at implementation, who looked at optimising their SAP operations, who would get it right from the start.

The two founders,Gary Carter and Gavin Campbell, both shared an overwhelming drive to get all organisations to work like that – and developed a vision to set up a specialist consultancy that would bring focus, innovation, and investment in this area. Shortly afterwards they met with Martyn Proctor, a seasoned SAP Practice Director with a strong business management and marketing background, and through joining forces, su53 was launched into the market.

A geographic and economic analysis proved quickly that Northern Ireland was the best place to found the business: innovative, available and committed people, combined with support from the Northern Ireland Government provided the advantages needed, and so su53's HQ was set up in Newry. Revenues in its first year exceeded those planned, and have gone on to more than double every year. su53 has since expanded its delivery strength with additional permanent employees, and some associates, all selected for their skills and singularity of vision: each su53 person has a passion for SAP GRC & security, and how it should best be applied to support effective business risk management. The company creates new and innovative service ideas, and is promoting its approach across the UK and increasingly across Europe and globally. su53's growing market share and reputation confirm that the market does indeed need this style of business focused, pragmatic, and focused consultancy.
