A SNAPSHOT ON THE
NETWORK TODAY
AND THE ACTIONS TO
BUILD THE NETWORK
OF TOMORROW
Network managers regularly face the perfect storm of competing pressures, and
today’s complex networks are not getting any easier to manage. ‘Anytime, anywhere’
connectivity expectations from users and customers, growing data security threats
and budgetary squeeze are standard. Dealing with day-to-day operations leaves little
time for stepping back to take a high level view of the role of the network and how it
supports the organisation’s ambitions and its capability to deliver.
Sometimes it is hard to see the wood for the trees, and that’s when an independent,
external view can be valuable. Reinforcing and documenting what was already planned,
it can also highlight new concerns, opportunities and strategies, and identify a
prioritised list of actions.
We help organisations to take a fresh look at their network and to build a 12 to 24
month strategic roadmap. We utilise our experience and insight into both current
and emerging network technologies to assist you in making investment decisions to
develop, secure and improve the network.

OUR APPROACH
Collect
Our Professional Services Team will hold workshops with you to ensure we fully understand
your deployed network from an architecture, topology and component perspective. We
also consider the current network strategy and how key business requirements drive the
development of your network. During the workshops, we will work with you to collect data and
produce a bespoke report based on specific findings and your needs.
Build & Test
We will then review and analyse the information gathered about the current architecture,
topology and usage to compose an independent picture of your network environment.
Our team will assess the current strategy and identify additional actions, adjustments or
recommendations needed to develop, protect and enhance the future of your network to
properly underpin the stated business requirements.
