IT Strategy and Advice
With the pace of change accelerating, you need an IT Strategy that aligns your technology with your specific business requirements.

- An end-to-end review of your IT, including systems, management, security, applications, lifecycles, provisioning and users.
- A gap analysis, highlighting areas where IT could be improved to meet the needs of your business.
- A well defined roadmap, highlighting next steps, deliverables, timescales and priorities, as well as justifications for each activity.

Cloud Readiness Service
A move to a cloud environment may not be right for you given your business needs, or it could potentially be very disruptive and complex and it is best you understand that early.
With pressures to improve your flexibility, reduce your costs and improve your time to market, it makes sense to investigate whether your business would benefit from investing in a cloud solution. Following our cloud readiness service, you will be in a strong position to decide if the cloud is right for you and you will have a well thought out and coherent plan to get the most from any cloud engagement for your business.
We will review your current IT infrastructure maturity and spend, before working with you to determine your future IT requirements.
That will help uncover both your business and technical needs, as well as help you benchmark yourself against other similar organisations.
The report will help you:
- Refine your vision for the cloud.
- Better understand, identify and address any gaps or areas of concern.
- Properly qualify your cloud needs and requirements.
- Identify whether you would benefit from a private, public or hybrid cloud approach.
- Help support any financial business case.

We can offer the following:
- Server Virtualisation
- Application Virtualisation
- Desktop Virtualisation
- Hardware Virtualisation

- Storage Virtualisation
- Operating System (OS) Virtualisation
Transform your technology platform with our proven end-to-end virtualisation solutions.
Backup & Continuity Services
You need to know that you can recover securely and rapidly when disaster strikes. To do so, you need to have a backup and continuity plan in place that is well designed, fully tested and continually reviewed to ensure it remains fit for purpose.
As a business that is reliant on technology, you recognise the risk posed should the worst happen. It is therefore critical that you have effective backups in multiple locations and a robust business continuity plan in place for the long-term well-being of your business.
There are a multitude of things that can go wrong that you would need to recover from. Those include everything from viruses and security breaches to data corruption, power outages and employee sabotage.
Each of these would affect your business-critical applications and data negatively. You need to ask yourself the following questions:
- Are you prepared for when disaster strikes?
- Do you know how long it would take you to recover?
- Have you recognised how costly downtime could be to you, both financially and to your brand?
- What would happen to your business if you lost all of your data?
- Offsite Replication of your Mission-Critical Data with a Variety of Recovery Options
