Since the flotation on AIM in November 2003, the Group has made three acquisitions. The Group Today Access Intelligence is based in York with subsidiaries in York, in Stockport, Greater Manchester, Chorley, Lancashire and Newcastle upon Tyne. The company has two principal divisions which are: • Compliance software and services division: This includes a range of software including The Virtual Compliance OfficerTM which enables companies in the retail financial services sector to support their customer acquisition process whilst also ensuring that they comply with ever increasing regulations from the EU and the FSA. ProContractTM our suite of sourcing and procurement software streamlines and reduces costs of tendering and contract management for both buyers and suppliers in the public and private sectors. The government has the objective that all public sector bodies comply with its directive to use methods such as electronic tendering for goods and services in order that it can meet its planned reductions in public spending. • Data Management division: The architecture and provision of high availability systems for mission critical applications that enable customers' data to be available at all times in the event of computer failure. Backup & RunningTM, our online offsite data storage and retrieval via secure data centres. Email archiving. There is an ever increasing compliance emphasis driven by initiatives such as Sarbannes-Oxley to ensure data is held appropriately and can be retrieved easily when required. The Business Model The Group's income strategy is to build repeating revenues delivered through recurring contracts ranging between one and five years. This model provides excellent visibility of future revenues and, with effective customer retention, outstanding gross margins over the longer term. The Strategy for Growth The strategy is to acquire businesses which have good management and high growth potential that fit the revenue model while, at the same time, adding value to the Group's existing services. The businesses acquired will have substantial autonomy to develop within budgets agreed with the Group Chief Executive and Finance Director, whilst benefiting from the experience and cross selling opportunities provided by being part of an expanding group of companies. New companies to the group can take advantage of back office facilities where appropriate thus enabling them to concentrate on the core activities of customer acquisition, service delivery and product development. At this stage of the Group's development, the Central Group Executive Team, which is based in York, will be kept to a maximum of four people, including support staff. The Non-Executive Directors will continue to be involved in sourcing and evaluating potential acquisitions and monitoring the performance of the Group.
