K & W Engineers Challenges
- IT Disaster Recovery: Lack of an IT Disaster Recovery infrastructure to assure business continuity.
- IT Security: Outdated and misconfigured hardware and software distributed across multiple platforms and providers creating business risk.
- IT Technology: Lack of up-to-date technology as the business continued to grow.
- IT backup: no backup solution in place to prepare for potential critical issues.
The Business Case
K & W’s goal to revamp their IT department with up-to-date software and hardware that would keep their data safe, protected and provide them with peace-of-mind with disaster recovery and business continuity began with a call to Higher Information Group (HIG). HIG’s multipronged assessment to their IT and data center concerns were mapped out as solutions to their issues and were quickly formulated. A timetable was constructed with benchmarks as the project progressed.
