Technology Lifecycle Management
One of the major challenges in maintaining a computer network is trying to predict what will fail and when. With our proactive approach to technology lifecycle management, we can prevent many network failures from ever happening. By combining regular and comprehensive preventative maintenance and robust real-time monitoring of your critical network and desktop devices, we ensure the reliability and stability of your IT assets.
This solution is so effective that our customers see almost immediate results. A regularly maintained network means fewer failures, yielding higher productivity and higher revenue per employee. At the same time, your exposure to security risks is dramatically lessened, and frustration from unstable IT resources almost vanishes. We allow our customers to focus on their core business functions by taking the worry out of managing a computer network.
Our approach to technology lifecycle management:
- Assess: Detailed analysis of your current environment, reporting on issues and actionable items.
- Onboard: Initial maintenance activities, projects, and remediation required to stabilize your technology.
- Manage: Ongoing delivery monitoring & maintenance designed to keep your business optimized.
- Protect: Application of industry best practices for security & backup management.
- Optimize: PTC serves as a strategic partner with you to continually asses, improve and optimize the business environment.
