PC World Business (PCWB) is to be an approved reseller for the UK government's Catalist IT catalogue, the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) announced today.

It would have been a disaster if the outcome had been any different: PCWB already claims 56,000 public sector accounts and is an approved reseller to the state through its G-cat accreditation. G-cat lapses later this year to be replaced by Catalist.

PCWB's Catalist status extends to all its brands, including Inmac, Equanet and MacWarehouse. ®
