Accessible, analytical, and risk-free

We’re known for using an agile, agnostic approach to tech infrastructure that factors in your needs and our experience to make sure that you always get the solution that works best for your business.

We’ve formalised that expertise in our TechWorkshop, using our core principles to create a methodology which gives you a systematic, thorough analysis of your IT environment. It’s the result of years of experience, designed to offer you a practical, comprehensive sounding board for your IT infrastructure planning, or as the first step to creating a bespoke IT system.

Weaving in your business objectives, it’s designed to help you grow and thrive, allowing you to concentrate on what you do best. Our clients tell us that it ‘provided essential information for our wider strategic planning,’ and that it allowed them to ‘mitigate risk by early identification of key issues.’

We’d recommend talking to us about a TechWorkshop if you’re looking at projects which are:

Complex – gain a better understanding of the technical and commercial nuances of an IT strategy and its implications for service transition, project delivery and ongoing support.
Involve risk – understand and mitigate risk early on in any project.
Need investment – an insight into understanding the costs of maintenance and support for your proposed IT strategy helps you build a clear and concise business case.

How does it work?

Plan and prepare

We’ll put together a highly skilled team to review all of your relevant IT and business-related documentation, prior to an onsite workshop.

Current state assessment (CSA)

A detailed look at your current IT/ business environment and how it pieces together, making sure that any gaps are understood by both parties. We look at your organisation, staff and how they work, including everything from network, storage and virtual structures to physical servers, support, wireless and backup.

Detailed requirements definition (DRD)

A detailed examination of what you want to achieve, from both business and technical perspectives. These requirements are challenged, prioritised and time lined.

Solution scenarios and recommendations (SSR)

We use the results of the CSA and DRD to develop a bespoke solution, service scenario and give you a range of recommendations, with clear costs.
