Project Management
Project Management has found its place in today's
competitive business arena and we understand how to get
it done. Viewing your project goals as their personal
goals, you can rely on our seasoned project managers to
meet or exceed expectations. The prerequisites include a
courtesy Project Definition/Assessment Phase. This
allows us to develop a "roadmap" for your project,
setting realistic expectations for all timelines,
providing deliverables (if required) with cost-justified
estimates. We work with your designated contact,
reporting project status on a continual basis, and
keeping you well informed of progress.
Staff Augmentation
Staff
Augmentation is the utilization of skilled IT personnel
to help fill a defined role within your company on a
temporary basis. Staff augmentation includes help desk
support, desk side support, and general IT functions
(moves, adds & changes, updates etc.) or even LAN
administration on a daily basis. Staff augmentation
allows a business to utilize resources that are already
trained in a particular skill(s), for any length of
time. This allows us to be a true extension of your
organization. Unlike typical staffing firms, we
frequently utilize our skilled engineers and consultants
on temporary assignments.
Help Desk
Advanced Vision Technology Group Help Desk Support
Services provides a support organization to our clients
in which support is only a phone call away.
Organizational product lines are indistinguishable,
problem ownership and customer advocacy is the rule, and
the competency and predictability of each interaction is
given. Advanced Vision can be your Help Desk or act as a
back up to your Help Desk by providing complete support
for each end-user on software, hardware, and networks.
Available through a toll-free "800" number, support is
available for network coordinators and LAN
administrators, as well as end-users. As your help desk
partner, Advanced Vision can provide a single point of
contact for multi-vendor hardware, software and
networking services nationwide. Problem recording,
tracking and resolution, are standard offerings with
guaranteed satisfaction.
Premier IT Procurement and Vendor
Management Program
How much time is spent researching just the right
desktop or finding the device that an executive has
requested? We will help manage the procurement process
and provide a method of controlling IT expenditures. The
process includes a series of checks and balances that
will meet most audit requirements. It also provides
automatic serial number tracking and procurement
histories.
You will work with our Inside Sales Team who will help
you research, select, order, track and complete the
hardware and software required. They will research
solutions allowing you to make a proper purchase
decision.
If needed, they can also provide proof of purchase for
tax or warranty purposes; thus relieving you of the
tracking and reporting burden.
In addition to working with the distributors and
manufacturers as your representatives we will also work
with all of your Technology vendors. If you want to
reduce your telecommunication expenses or want to
establish a new office we will manage the vendor
relationship for you, ensuring the best service and most
efficient operations.
Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity
Plan Development
Of
course we all have Recovery and Continuity plans for
any unforeseen concerns. However, do they work? Have
they been tested? Are the procedures documented so
even a layman can assist through a difficult time?
We have found this not to be the case. We provide:
 |
Contingency planning
|
 |
Develop policies and
procedures
|
 |
Instill back-up policies
and verifications |
 |
Hot site programs |
 |
Off-site data backup and
recovery services
|
 |
Testing and Documentation
of procedures |
All
procedures are fully tested through a reenactment and
then after a successful execution are they considered a
true Business Continuity and Recovery Plan.
In
addition to developing the DR/BCP plans, Advanced Vision
Technology Group will complete a disaster recovery
exercise annually. During the DR/BCP exercises we
simulate an event and actually go thru various recovery
models. By doing this we are confirming that the data
and systems that are being backed up are actually
restorable.
