History of ROCC
In 1976 the UK Rediffusion Group formed a computer company,
Redifon Computers, to manufacture and sell minicomputers for data
capture. The company subsequently expanded the product range to
include scanning systems, networked distributed processing systems
and, from 1980 onwards, innovative videotex systems. Michael
Aldrich had invented online shopping in 1979 using videotex
technology.
In 1984 the company was sold to a team led by Michael Aldrich who
had joined the Board in 1977. He subsequently bought out the other
shareholders. Michael Aldrich retired to become Non-Executive
Chairman in 2000.
The company has been involved in many high profile projects and
has become known for its innovations with projects such as the
maintenance and logistics systems for the Siberian Gas Pipeline
(1981/1982) and many UK government projects including Cattle
Passports following the BSE crisis (1998).
Since 2000 ROCC has been run by a talented and experienced
management team led by Luke Aldrich CEO. ROCC has continued to
change, divesting its engineering business and acquiring
specialist companies with unique technology and service offerings.
ROCC today is an innovative technology company conceiving,
designing and selling complex software, consultancy and services
solutions to the Public and Private Sectors throughout the UK and
Europe.
