A company set up six months ago is expanding after winning a number of contracts.

IT4Vision.com, which is based in Harlepool, provides monitoring systems, technical support, training and direct IT services. It has won work with SCA packaging, quarry owner Lafarge Aggregates and car dealership SG Petch.

After installing £12,000 of surveillance cameras and monitors in the SG Petch site at Middlesbrough, IT4Vision has won a second contract to fit out the company's showroom in Bishop Auckland, County Durham.

Its recent work for Lafarge involved the installation of test cameras at its Thrislington Quarry, near Ferryhill, County Durham.

Company co-founder Dave Brown said the Lafarge project could lead to contracts at 50 other sites, worth more than £600,000.

IT4Vision was set up by Mr Brown and Roger Clark in September last year and was one of the first tenants to move into UK Steel Enterprise's Innovation Centre, in Hartlepool's Queens Meadow Business Park.

The company is now planning to nearly double its floorspace.
