Cost Reduction

For many organisations driving down costs is always an issue, this has been compounded by global economic pressures and downturns. It is therefore imperative that all systems, not just IT are as effective as possible and cost efficient.

An effectively managed data centre that utilises the latest technological advances in both physical hardware and applications can deliver a significant advantage on business costs and performance.

For example: by utilising blade technologies and virtualisation considerable savings can be made in key areas, and the total cost of ownership.

• Savings on hardware.
• Hardware fully utilised away from one server, one application.
• Fewer physical devices required, reducing hardware cost.
• Significant savings against associated running costs.
• Saving on space requirements - internally or data centre space.
• Reduced cost of ownership.

We work with clients to finalise a complete review of the total cost of ownership of IT systems, this includes a review of the total power consumption for the IT hardware including desktops. Once completed, this highlights the total cost of running IT systems. After reviewing all of the information we can then recommend a solution to reduce TCO and increase the return on investment.

We have undertaken many significant projects, for example: a 42 server consolidation project delivered a total return on investment in just 11 months, which include a fully virtualised blade infrastructure and continues to deliver reduced operating costs.
