Bell Micro brand to be history by October
2010-08-23
Multispecialist Avnet Technology Solutions has put a timetable in place to axe the Bell brand and have all front office staff in place by the end of september. The current phase, which is about 85% determined, is to put in place the structure for the vendor/reseller facing teams to ensure there is minimal or no disruption to business. Although Avnet employs around 1900 staff in Europe, it has refused to discuss headcount cuts. The grand plan is to wring out $50m to $60m in "synergy savings" from the expanded Avnet by reducing staff duplication, consolidating systems and premises. For example, the distributor has in the region of four ERP systems, which should be standardized to SAP in the mid-term, after a migration from Bell to Avnet's infrastructure by Q1. The brand Bell should have disappeared by October, 1st (source : Microscope United Kingdom).
