Our Solutions

Our Process

Your In-House IT Consultant At No Charge To You

We handle everything from the initial in-depth assessment to implementation to testing and the final off-boarding process. We are available every step of the way and for any questions that may come up even after the offboarding process.

Assess – With our all-encompassing proven Discovery methodology, we work to understand the existing environment to include technology, applications, users, and locations to understand current processes and procedures. We put in the hours ensuring you don’t.

Plan – By discussing and providing a Scope of Work for each customer we discuss and understand budgets, timelines, available resources and what seems to be most important, timing. By understanding each milestone or important touch point, it allows us to deliver effective business solutions that reduce costs, streamline operations and increase productivity, as well as profitability.

Implement – Best of breed technology meets best of breed technical resources. Our white glove concierge services allows us to augment or compliment available resources to ensure a proper deployment. Leverage our experience and contacts pushing projects through critical milestones.

Test – Lets start by acknowledging the elephant in the room… Technology fails. Challenges occur. We take pride in separating ourselves from our competition by showing you where we truly excel. And traditionally that is in the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere when you hear us on the other end of the phone. We are not transactional order takers. We are your partner. We hope you evaluate our value on the amount of time you get back in your day.

Hand-Off – With clearly defined expectations and a team that would impress even the most technical of the bunch, when the boxes are checked and the handshake is complete. Then and only then will we leave you to explore your new technology to its fullest.
