Solutions Design & Validation
What do we offer?
Our pragmatic consultancy will recommend areas for infrastructure refresh which meet your specific goals. ICM consultants work alongside your IT staff in design workshops, creating both logical and physical architecture that includes detailed design concepts, the effort impact on your business and cost planning. We then use a virtual test environment (VTE) which can be either hosted at ICM or set-up at your premises. In this environment, we're able to validate specific technological change whether it's a migration concept, a technology upgrade or a validation of interoperability.
How do you benefit?
ICM's approach to Solutions Design & Validation brings you tried and tested benefits that include:
- Thoroughly planned and executed design concepts
- Validated and tested design components and migration concepts
- Increased internal knowledge share and skills transference from ICM experts
- Development of infrastructural processes such as desktop lifecycle, Active Directory management and 'what if' scenarios
- Assurance of successful production deployment
What's covered?
We design solutions incorporating all leading manufacturer technologies, tailored to achieve your specified business and IT objectives. These solutions are tested in a controlled environment, ensuring the impact on your business is fully understood and managed effectively during the solution deployment.
What our customers have to say
ICM’s understanding of our business and its technology requirements was impressive. In particular, knowledge of the NetApp technology along with its specific application in our wider business context was second to none, ensuring Lloyds’ business and IT objectives were aligned.
