Glasgow, 7 October 2026 — As Scottish small businesses cut costs to survive a tightening economy, one Glasgow IT founder is giving away the one thing most suppliers charge for: the truth about what they are paying.
Timothy A. of Riverbank IT Systems has opened a free IT cost audit to any business in Scotland or Northern England. The audit reviews Microsoft 365 licences, cloud bills, software subscriptions, hardware spend and support contracts, and produces a plain-English list of what can be cut, renegotiated or exited.
"I have sat in too many offices where the business is paying for 40 licences and has 28 staff," Timothy said. "Or for a support contract that renewed itself three years ago at a price nobody questioned. That money should be paying wages, not padding a supplier's margin."
The audit is offered on a no-savings, no-fee basis, subject to the information provided and existing contract terms, and businesses are free to act on the findings with or without Riverbank.
Born and raised in Glasgow, Timothy runs the company on deliberately low overheads — no London sales machine, no bloated structure — and passes the savings to customers. Riverbank also offers a £39.99 plus VAT fixed-price repair for one-off IT faults, from crashed servers to cracked iPad screens, with any further work quoted in writing first.
"Call it heroics if you like," Timothy said. "I call it being on the side of the people who actually keep Scotland working."
