Technology services provider Logicalis has combined its Australia and Asia operations, creating a new Asia Pacific entity.
This strategic realignment will be effective from 1 June and will be led by Chong-Win Lee as CEO of Logicalis Asia Pacific.
The combined Logicalis Asia Pacific entity will consolidate 1,600 employees with a collective revenue upwards of US$350 million across 10 countries, including Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, China, Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan, Philippines, Vietnam, and now Australia.
Anthony Woodward continues in his role as CEO of Logicalis Australia and reporting to Lee. In addition to his current responsibilities, Woodward will lead a special task force focused on fostering innovation and identifying synergistic, joint opportunities across the region.
“The strategic consolidation of Logicalis’ operations across Australia and Asia marks a pivotal moment in the company’s continued growth and evolution,” Lee said.
“The aim of this reorganisation is to build a powerhouse capable of delivering high-impact technology solutions more efficiently for customers across Asia Pacific, while still providing the local expertise and support that Logicalis customers value.”
The combination is designed to enhance service delivery and bring a cohesive solution portfolio to customers, reflecting the alignment of Logicalis Asia’s strategy to enable XaaS operating models to support digital transformation.
The combined operation will deliver seamless access to Logicalis’ experience in industry sectors such as financial services, government, and healthcare, empowering teams to build skill and capacity for data and application modernisation, cloud managed services, artificial intelligence (AI), and more.
From a security perspective, it will reinforce the company’s customer proposition, giving customers access to the global network of threat intelligence research and experience encapsulated in the regional Logicalis Security Operations Centre (SOC).
“Formally combining the strengths of Logicalis Australia and its Asia counterparts is an acceleration of what has already been happening organically,” Woodward said.
“This evolution lets Logicalis Australia and our customers leverage high-value digital capabilities from across the region, ensuring faster, more competitive, and more comprehensive service offerings.
“It also strengthens the local team’s onshore capabilities while integrating best practices and expertise from across Asia, enabling the delivery of scalable, cost-effective managed service options for customers.”
Logicalis has been focusing on expanding its core Microsoft and Cisco businesses, enhancing its capabilities in cloud, cybersecurity, and managed services.
Logicalis Asia has also recently brought Atlassian onboard as a strategic vendor.
“The Logicalis Asia Pacific entity will help the company achieve greater influence with vendors and deliver even greater outcomes for customers into the future,” Lee said.
Logicalis global CEO Bob Bailkoski said the goal for Logicalis was clear – to harness the collective strengths of the company’s diverse operations to drive innovation and growth throughout Australia, Asia, and the globe.
“This reorganisation represents a strategic response to the evolving IT landscape and reinforces Logicalis’ commitment to developing solutions that support its customers’ success in the digital age,” he said.
