Education Services
PB Tech’s Education specialists have years of experience meeting the hardware and software technology needs of educational institutions of all sizes.
With the onset of Covid-19, PB Tech helped schools and universities around the country to pivot to distance learning quickly by supplying them with large quantities of devices and peripherals in extremely tight timeframes to prepare both teachers and students for remote learning.
These projects allowed us to further hone our processes in procurement, zero-touch provisioning, and mobile device management; and helped us build critical partnerships with industry leaders.
YOU NEED IT, WE GOT IT
Procurement
PB Tech stocks the biggest range of laptops and STEM products in New Zealand. Our team works to source high value, high calibre products, regardless of the market position of the brand so that our education customers get more value for money.
Even when Covid-19 saw supply chain snarls hold up projects around New Zealand, our large stock holding and evolving logistics solutions allowed us to find alternatives and keep supplying to education institutions.
BYOD
Bring your own device
At PB Tech, we understand that digital literacy is becoming indispensable. Parents and teachers need to equip students for a digital world, but students at different ages have different needs for their devices.
PB Tech has a range of suitable devices for BYOD at different price points, and we help simplify BYOD for schools by letting you create your own BYOD portal so you can recommend the exact devices needed for the syllabus.
DAAS for Education
Device leasing
Need to update your device fleet, but don’t want to do it in a lump sum payment? Spread out the cost with a monthly payment over three years and give your teachers the devices they need to do their job.
Keep staff happy by reassuring them they won’t have to cobble together makeshift solutions to keep up with the demands of remote learning.

Three Kings School recently selected PB Technology and Securitek to install a site-wide CCTV security system. From the pre-installation meeting to the final sign-off, they were outstanding. I was particularly impressed with the professionalism displayed by the entire team. We are extremely happy with the end result and have no hesitation in recommending them to others.
Janine Young
Office Manager of Three Kings School
We have found PB Tech to be a valued technology partner for our company. Not only do they provide reliable hardware at reasonable pricing but their support both before and after sales is par excellence. They have also been able to assist us with managing large regional projects across our various New Zealand campuses. In short, they are our trusted one-stop-shop for much of our technology needs.
André Basel
IT Manager of One School Global
I can confirm that PB Tech has been a valued IT partner to the University of Waikato over the past 3 years, being chosen as part of a competitive RFP process. We would highly recommend the team at PB Tech for the supply, delivery, and configuration of Desktop and Laptop PCs, Mac Devices, Chromebooks, and associated accessories.
