Teleglobe's IT Operations
organization was presented with an $8M technical design
proposal by their primary systems integrator for a development
and test lab. The quote was high, and a more economical
solution was required.
The CIO asked EKIVE to
review the proposal and identify ways to reduce cost without
compromising capability.
The value EKIVE provided
to Teleglobe's CIO included:
|
Reviewing the proposal
and discovering that there were serious integration
incompatibilities which, if implemented, would result
in a non-operational environment and severe schedule
impact. |
|
|
|
Recommending the
necessary changes to bring technical capabilities in
line with critical business requirements. |
|
|
|
Implementing a
functional 7500 square-foot data center that met business
requirements. |
The project was delivered
on schedule at a savings of over $7M against the original
budget. Our recommendations and actions helped the client
avoid the costly mistake of purchasing expensive, incompatible
equipment and software. More importantly, the intervention
prevented costly project delays.
