Business continuity assurance exercises
Today it is well understood that the risk of technology, infrastructure failure, pandemic, or natural disaster should be factored into a company’s strategic plans. Company risk assessors/auditors are expecting to see that these plans exist and be shown to work.
Our network laboratories, virtual server farms, office space and disaster scenario simulators (DSS); the NEC Business Continuity Management/Disaster Recovery Plans can be tested to ensure that:
• the technology operates as expected
• the people know and understand their roles in a disaster
• the procedures operate as expected.
Evaluation of new technology solutions
Wading through the technology that’s available today can be a very time consuming and resource intensive task. We have extensive expertise with networking and convergence technology from virtually all major voice and data vendors. Consequently, we can offer objective recommendations that help you to make the technology selections that best meet your infrastructure needs and business goals.
Patch and Product feature testing
Most technology vendors regularly introduce fixes or new product features via hardware or software upgrades. When this happens, it is important for these new features to be tested to ensure they provide the functionality the business requires and operate with existing technologies.
We can test new fixes or features within across numerous networking scenarios and document the results. We can then distribute and implement tested patches or features in accord with agreed change control processes.
