We have experience of a wide range of IT Infrastructure, from small offices running Windows through to large companies with an environment, which includes a number of different operating systems. We have the experience to help companies to design and build large infrastructure projects, or to improve their existing infrastructure.
We will evaluate and improve your existing infrastructure in terms of:

• Functionality - The capabilities of the system
• Are you receiving the results you require?
• Is there a potential business benefit not yet explored?
• Stability - Is the system reliable?
• Security - Is the system adequately secure from possible danger?
• Physical - Theft, Power Cut
• Software - Virus
• Hacking - Data Loss, Data Theft
• Disaster Recovery - Are plans in place?
• Support - Are sufficient contracts in place?
• Documentation - Is the system sufficiently documented?

• Initiate an infrastructure project
• Help with a project as an extra pair of hands
• To maintain an existing system
• To troubleshoot a problem
• To advise on new technology

The real value of our services is realised when we are able to help you with your infrastructure through IT Management Services. Although IT Infrastructure is primarily a technical issue, priorities and investments in this area depend on the nature of your company.

For example, financial services companies would regard the data that they carry about their customers as highly confidential and would be prepared to invest heavily to secure that data. Other companies hold less sensitive information and will judge that the risk and consequences of data theft, warrant a smaller investment.

Thompson Partnership would look at your current infrastructure and at your business. We would draw up a list of investments that would improve your systems. We will then prioritise these investments by looking at risk/opportunity, consequences and investment required.
