Technology should be saving you time, money and effort. In so many cases
systems are set up so that they require more effort to utilize than pen and paper.
They do not offer the user the tools to make the job easier and more
efficient. We can review your applications and systems and help design
better processes for your organization...ask us how.

Service, Planning and Deployment
Service Considerations
Environment cleanup/virus recovery:
PC's are checked for Spyware, Adware, Foistware and Viruses
which are then removed. Recommendations are made in regards to unnecessary
program components. Program caches and temp directories are cleaned out
including one 'missed' by the built in utilities. We can also recommend
utilities to keep these components from infiltrating the system again. A
performance increase is a 99% certainty for any system that is used on
the internet without protection.
PC Repairs/Upgrades:
Repairs and upgrades to all PC's regardless of application
(clerical, industrial, POS, etc...). Consider expansion options prior to
replacement. Most performance issues can be solved by simple upgrades to
the PC's resources (disk and RAM).
Printer Repairs:
With over 18 years experience dating to when the first desktop laser
printers where introduced we can help protect your equipment investment by
recommending maintenance programs to extend the life of your equipment and reduce
repair and operating costs. We can even help you by repairing older legacy
equipment such as line printers, bar code and dot matrix printers.
Disaster Recovery:
Disaster Recovery is the ability to recover from serious failures in
equipment or media. A Disaster Recovery Plan can remove the guesswork of what
to do when a drive crashes on a critical PC or server, cables severed by
renovation crews, fire, or theft of equipment. We can help identify all
possible exposures and implement measures that can protect your ability to
stay in business incase of such an event. In some cases a Disaster Recovery
Plan is a minimum level of protection required by ISO certification.
Business Continuance:
Business Continuance is much like a Disaster Recovery Plan. Weaknesses and
vulnerabilities are identified and instead of facilitating replacement and
recovery it involves putting measures in place to ensure that services are not
interrupted. This is accomplished using many methods including redundant
systems, hot sites and multi-path communications. We can also assist you in
preparation of a cost benefit analysis to see whether a business continuance
plan is necessary for your organization.
Resource Diagrams:
Resource Maps serve a number of purposes. We can create diagrams that
represent physical resources like networks, cabling, office layouts or virtual
resources like networking, routing environments and process flowcharting. In
the majority of cases, structured cabling (phone, data, security) is rarely
documented in relation to the office layout. This makes problem solving, moves,
adds
and changes, budgeting and planning troublesome.
IT Resource Planning/Budgeting:
Many organizations are unaware that an IT budget can be as much as 5% of a
company's gross income. Recognizing, accommodating and balancing new technology
against extending the life of your existing investments is key to getting the
most out of your IT budget.
Telecom:
For many businesses the telephone system is the primary access to the
outside world. Reliability is a key factor for business communications.
Service is available for a variety of systems including all Nortel ICS
systems. Installation, relocation and expansion (within system limits) can
also be provided.
Technology Moves
Breakdown and documentation of your existing infrastructure. transport
and delivery of your equipment. Reinstallation and testing.
Manufacturing Systems
Manufacturing processes can be optimized extensively with the correct
utilization of IT. Whether it be tracking of work-in-progress station reports,
tracking production trends or operator efficiency, we can help you through the
implementation of data collection, MRP and JIT warehousing. With ever
shrinking production margins you need your systems to be part of the profit
center of your business.
Data Centre Planning & Design
Whether you are building a new facility or renovating an old one,
we can
help you design, organize and build your new data center or server room. We
have extensive experience in all aspects (cooling, electrical, structured
cabling, raised floors, cable tracks, redundant power, security) with builds
ranging from 100 square feet to 10,000 square. No job is too small to be done
right.
