Alan Keef Ltd Joins Module IT for Modern VoIP Communications

We're thrilled to announce that Alan Keef Ltd, the renowned British manufacturer of narrow gauge and industrial railway locomotives, has chosen Module IT to modernise their business communications with a fully managed VoIP solution.

About Alan Keef Ltd

Founded in 1983 and based in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, Alan Keef Ltd has built an outstanding reputation for designing and building bespoke narrow gauge locomotives and rolling stock for clients across the UK and around the world. Their work spans heritage railways, industrial sites, and tourist attractions — a business where reliable communication is absolutely critical.

The Challenge

With the UK's Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) switch-off scheduled for December 2027, businesses across the country are facing the need to transition away from traditional landlines. Alan Keef Ltd recognised the importance of acting early to avoid disruption and take full advantage of the flexibility that modern VoIP technology offers.

The Solution

Module IT designed and deployed a tailored VoIP communications package for Alan Keef Ltd, including:

• Hosted VoIP phone system with HD voice quality
• Number porting — retaining existing business numbers with zero disruption
• Mobile and desktop softphone apps for flexible working
• Centralised call management with hunt groups and voicemail-to-email
• Ongoing 24/7 monitoring and support from the Module IT team

Looking Ahead

By transitioning now, Alan Keef Ltd is fully prepared for the 2027 PSTN switch-off and is already benefiting from reduced call costs, improved flexibility, and a more professional communications experience for their customers and suppliers.

"The move to VoIP was seamless. Module IT handled everything and made sure we had zero downtime. We're already noticing the difference in call quality and the flexibility it gives our team."

We're proud to support Alan Keef Ltd and look forward to a long and successful partnership.
