COVID-19 IT SERVICES

PREPAREDNESS PLANNING

As the Coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19) spreads across the globe, the likelihood of it impacting business as usual increases. Our intention is not to raise alarm or amplify fear. Our goal is to increase preparedness against potential business disruption. Technology plays a major part. Many businesses are considering precautionary measures as they lean into proactivity. We support this approach for the sake of guaranteed business continuity. Consider your readiness for the following scenarios:

• – Workplace illnesses
• – Schools closing down
• – Reduced delivery schedules
• – Reduced or paused work travel
• – Supporting clients out of state
• – Worker requests to stay home
• – Increased digital communication
• – Rapid workforce augmentation
• – Hardware shortages (E.g. laptops)
• – Transition to teleworker setup

BEFORE YOU LOOK AT DEPLOYING NEW TECHNOLOGY

Before you consider hardware or software, it’s important that you have a secure and compliant foundation with strong governance built in. Setting up an employee with a laptop on their couch while they have Netflix on in the background sounds easy but there’s a lot to consider. Network speed and security are essential, and data handling compliance requires documented protocols, expectations and governance training for your staff. While technology is essential, you also need a strategy. A bespoke solution designed and deployed to meet your specific work environment needs.
