Founded by Simon Hayward and Neon Islam, two IT veterans who saw how networking had become far too complicated and overpriced. They believed there had to be a better way: built on clarity, honesty and real outcomes.

We began as Aruba specialists, trusted in some of the toughest wireless environments. Today we’ve grown into a full network and security managed services provider, covering multiple vendors across enterprise networking, network security and unified communications.

We don’t just sell you the kit and walk away. We work as an extension of your team — the crew you call when you need things done right, without the fuss. Our promise hasn’t changed: Above and Beyond, every time.

How We Work

Four steps. No shortcuts.

01
Assess
We dig into your current network, surveying for gaps and skeletons in the closet. No assumptions — just an honest picture of where things actually stand.
02
Recommend
We give it to you straight: what’s working, what’s not, and exactly where we’d make changes. Clear priorities, no fluff, no upsell for the sake of it.
03
Rollout
We become the hands and feet — from pre-configuration to installation and go-live. Precision delivery, zero shortcuts, and we don’t leave until it’s right.
04
Manage
We stick around, running the whole show end to end so you can get on with business. 24/7 monitoring and management by the engineers who built it.
Technology Partners

The best vendors
in the business.
Delivered by us.

To deliver great outcomes, you need great partners. Our vendor relationships are deep technical partnerships — not just reseller agreements. You get tier-one expertise without the tier-one runaround, backed by years of certified delivery and the region’s top partner award.

Legend Testimonials

The team have dealt with Simon and his contacts for over 5 years, performing predictive, off-plan and on-site wireless surveys. They resolve complex design and troubleshooting requirements in high-impact distribution centres that most engineers simply can’t handle.

Andrew Deeker
Head of IT Operations, EBOS Group Limited

Affinity Blue has allowed my team to have broader conversations with our customers and, most importantly, honoured our reputation by delivering first-class outcomes. Always happy to use and recommend.

Leigh Montague
General Manager, Sales. Oreta

Such a great experience that we now use Affinity Blue for all our ongoing wireless support needs. They designed and deployed our new office and DC network and I could not recommend them more highly.
