Designed Solutions
Design Consulting Services Professionals are experts in providing complete data storage solutions. As an Independent Storage Solutions Provider, we are able to freely search the entire storage marketplace picking the highest quality technology products when architecting our storage designs. Our Solutions Group reviews each technology selected validating component availability, maintenance requirements, historical information (performance and issues) and interoperability testing results to assure our final technical designs are based on sound reliable technology. After certifying the proposed technologies fit the business needs, we then gather appropriate vendor proposals, provide a complete resource study to fully understand Total Cost of Ownership and finally prepare a Cost Benefit Analysis to validate true business value. Our Professionals use a best of breed approach when selecting technology and for each defined need, design a two solution approach to maintain a competitive vendor environment. All technical components chosen must exceed the technical requirements set forth for the project before being further evaluated at the resource, personnel and political levels. By using an evaluation scoring system exclusive to Design Consulting Services, the best products are then fairly rated inclusive of all implementation, support and resource requirements and presented via the Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) to the customer for final technical and financial approvals. In having two solutions, each exceeding the needs of the business, negotiations with each vendor on final cost, additional products and professional services can proceed in a truly competitive environment. With the solution design and purchase complete, our Services staff can then implement the solution or guide and assist your staff with the installation and configuration. Once installation and configuration have completed you too will understand the benefits of a partnership with Design Consulting Services.
