Business Equipment Services was first established by Mike and Ann Powdrill in 1979. The original purpose was to deal in the sale, service and repair of Telecom Equipment.
02/01/1979Throughout the 1990’s the company business moved steadily away from telecom products and by the end of that decade BES had established itself as foremost experts in customer support and after sales service for Sanyo Information Systems, looking after every aspect of service and repair for their range of Dictation products.
01/01/1990In 1992, BES was appointed Main Service Agent by Sanyo Information Systems (UK) Ltd. The range was broadened to include Dictation Equipment.

09/01/1998Working with Sanyo earned BES an excellent reputation within the Voice Processing Industry. It is widely acknowledged that in terms of after sales support we are by far the best in this field. This was borne out when we were approached by Olympus in 2005 and asked to provide a complete support package for their Pro-Line (Professional range) of Digital Dictation Equipment.
01/01/2005BES launched a dedicated support website - www.opdsupport.com - for Olympus Professional Dictation.
20/05/2009When we were first appointed by Olympus is 2005 our work was confined to the UK market, however news of our reputation soon spread and in addition to the UK, we now find ourselves supporting this product for Olympus in Europe and to a limited extent Olympus America. We are also funded directly by the Olympus Corporation in Tokyo with whom we work closely on numerous Global Projects.
