Projects
Projects with a fixed proposal — and a date on it
Don't have the people to get a project over the line? Our engineers work with a dedicated in-house project manager from scoping to sign-off, and every proposal is written in plain English with a line-item cost breakdown and milestone dates.
How a project runs
A senior engineer scopes the work with you. You get a written proposal with line-item costs and dates. A project manager keeps it on track and keeps you informed. At the end you get documentation and training so your team can run what we built. The invoice matches the proposal unless you change the scope.
Typical projects
- Server and storage refreshes; hypervisor migrations (VMware to XCP-ng or Hyper-V)
- Cloud and Microsoft 365 migrations
- Office relocations and fit-outs, including cabling and Wi-Fi
- Campus and warehouse wireless rollouts
- Network redesigns, firewall replacements and multi-site WAN
- Security uplift programs (Essential Eight, ISO 27001 readiness)
Datacentre services
We maintain inductions at the major datacentre facilities in Newcastle, Sydney and Perth. Rack space is available in Sydney and Perth for businesses that want mission-critical hardware in a secure, powered, cooled facility, and we handle commissioning, decommissioning, rack and stack, and remote hands.
Hardware and software supply
Through our channel partners we supply servers, storage, networking, PCs, laptops and licensing at trade pricing. Lenovo for PCs and Supermicro for servers and storage by preference — but we'll supply whatever you'd rather run, and hardware appears as its own line on the quote so you can compare.
Contract engineers
Need a skills gap filled for a week or two, or leave covered? Our multi-skilled engineers are available on short-term contracts.
