Methodology

All migration or consolidation project begin with a thorough understanding of corporate drivers, requirements and constraints. Meetings with key stakeholders are held to determine corporate objectives and then objectives are assessed to determine whether they can be met without migration/consolidation by retrieval of ‘lost’ capacity in an existing facility for example; our in house consultants design a bespoke solution to meet individual corporate requirements.

Planning is key to success and all devices, facility infrastructure and other elements will be documented, assessed for any issues identified and dealt with prior to the move.
