Solution Proof of Concept (PoC)

A cost-effective way for you to test the viability of new technology, providing valuable insights into its performance and potential challenges. The PoC tests key features, identifies potential issues, and strengthens the business case for your recommended solution. This process helps you build confidence in the solution, ensuring a smoother transition before full implementation.

The network design journey from discovery to enablement

Here’s what to expect from our network design and build process: a structured approach that optimises your IT infrastructure, ensures seamless integration, and aligns with your business goals.

Uncover & align

Audit: We begin by identifying your pain points and challenges, understanding your vision, and mapping out the path to achieve your goals. We assess your current IT infrastructure to determine the best solutions for seamless integration.

Workshop: We present our findings to all stakeholders, reviewing what we’ve learned about your infrastructure and the needs you’ve shared. Then, we present tailored recommendations and collaborate closely with you to ensure alignment with the proposed strategy.

Blueprint for success

HLD (High-Level Design): We develop a comprehensive network design that outlines the overall architecture, which is then reviewed and signed off to ensure alignment with your objectives.

LLD (Low-Level Design): In close collaboration with your team, we create a detailed, step-by-step design, covering every aspect of the solution. This provides a clear reference point for implementation and future reference.

Precision building &
resilient testing

Infrastructure Build: We construct your infrastructure exactly as designed, ensuring that all elements are implemented with precision and care.

Infrastructure Testing: We proactively test the environment to identify potential issues before they arise. By simulating scenarios, we predict outcomes and run comprehensive tests—both internally and with your team—to ensure resilience. We also provide remediation documentation for any anticipated challenges.

Seamless migration, confident deployment

Phased Migration: We implement a gradual, phased migration, introducing functionality step by step to build confidence in the infrastructure’s performance and stability over time.

Full Production: Once the system is thoroughly tested and optimised, we transition to full production, ensuring smooth operations and complete integration.

Empowering your
team

Since technology vendors don’t usually offer formal training courses, we bridge the gap by providing tailored workshops, comprehensive documentation, hands-on training, and detailed design run-throughs to ensure your team is fully equipped to manage and utilise the solution effectively.

Transition to managed
services

Should the need arise, our deep understanding of your environment will allow us to seamlessly transition to a Managed Service to support your ongoing needs.
