Business in Gloucestershire

Gloucestershire has the highest concentration of cyber security businesses in the country outside London at Cheltenham, anchored by Golden Valley, and a genuine industrial and aerospace engineering base a few miles away at Gloucester. The two sit close enough that the security expectations of one flow into the supply chain of the other. Cheltenham adds a Regency spa town with a festival and racing economy that fills it several times a year; Gloucester adds regenerated docks and distribution on the M5.

Gloucestershire — common questions

Cheltenham has a lot of professional and financial firms. What do they usually ask about?

Call recording and what happens to it — retention, access logging and where it is stored — because that is what their own compliance obligations and their clients ask them. The technology is straightforward; the decisions are not, and an indefinite archive of every call is more to protect and more to disclose than a targeted one.

We are in Stroud or the rural west of the county. Is fibre available?

Address by address, and genuinely variable — the valleys here are one of the places where full fibre reaches one village and stops before the next. Where it has not arrived a 4G or 5G circuit is a real answer and is deliverable in days. We would check the postcode and tell you what is actually there rather than what the area map suggests.

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

We work across Gloucestershire generally, and we have pages for Cheltenham, Gloucester and Stroud. Mike O'Shea is your primary contact, based in Clevedon. Coverage and installation options are checked for your sites; if your town is not listed, send us the postcode and requirements.

Who would I actually be dealing with in Gloucestershire?

Mike O'Shea, based in Clevedon, on 07831 659875. Your named contact helps scope the requirements and coordinate the appropriate service teams within the Southern Communications Group. Support arrangements and responsibilities are confirmed for the services you choose.

What does SCG Solutions do for businesses in Gloucestershire?

IT support, cyber security, cloud telephony and Microsoft Teams calling, business internet from broadband to leased lines, and business mobiles. The right scope depends on your users, sites and existing systems. The town pages describe more of the local context across Gloucestershire.

We have sites in more than one Gloucestershire town. Can that be one system?

A shared cloud phone system can link your sites, route calls between available teams and let people work across locations. We review connectivity, user licences, number-porting requirements and the support scope together. Any costs or savings are confirmed in the proposal rather than assumed.

The 2027 switch-off affects Gloucestershire too. Openreach plans to retire its traditional phone network by 31 January 2027. Check your phone lines, alarms and payment terminals, and plan the move with your provider.
