Technology Refresh
Business requirements do not stand still. They change, evolve and grow. As your needs change so must the technology that supports you.
The tricky part is that almost every component of your infrastructure is intrinsically linked. If you change one thing you need to make sure all the other bits will keep on working as they should.
In our experience this is what makes a technology refresh so tough to complete. If it were just a simple matter of upgrading the PCs or implementing a new network it wouldn’t be too complicated. But you need to think about the cause and effect on all manner of systems and applications.
If you’re like a lot of organisations, you may not exactly know all of the assets you own or the relationships between them, which makes the problem somewhat larger.
IT infrastructure does have a shelf life and it’s usually much shorter than you’d like. Unfortunately explaining this is a tough job, and quite rightly business leaders expect to get more life out of their IT investments than ever before.
This is where we may be able help. There are very few companies that have the breath of capability to take a holistic view of a refresh, whilst having the depth of expertise and experience in specific technology areas.
A good example of a full technology refresh is the programme we led for a UK Government customer. They needed to renew their entire infrastructure for 7,500 users and chose 2e2 as their partner of choice.
We’ve worked with hundreds of public sector and commercial organisations to build a business case for change. We can help you clearly articulate the business advantage of a refresh, secure the budget and then deliver the programme with you or for you.
