About Us
IT4GP was founded in 2007, in Victoria, Australia. Our focus is on IT solutions that improve business outcomes. Our innovative services have seen a strong story of growth year on year.
We attribute this growth to working in a specific range of industries to support them with implementing and maintaining services to assist them with customer service, though predominantly we have been working within the Health Industry. We focus on IT infrastructure consulting and project management.
In 2014 we had attributed enough managed healthcare centres all with a common issue, government legislated panic alarm systems, a compulsory requirement, although there were many options on the market it became very apparent reliability was an issue, with battery or USB focused typical under the desk stuck on alarms after a year or so it became very apparent these alarms were never visibly tested, sadly the test would happen upon requiring help, again this led to a number of situations where something far more visible was required.
With the design and development wholly performed in house, we were able to test our products under 100s of different environments, making sure every day a user sat down, they were 100% confident their Duress Alert was both installed and working, from there the Duress Alert became Australia’s most used and respected on-screen panic alert software.
We are proud to have 1000s of staff using such a powerful tool and making sure if they require support its available 24/7, 365 days per year, knowing when you buy Duress Alert you and your staff are safe and know when they need help, it’s there.
