Case
Study 1 - chriscore.net assists with IT recruiting
A large manufacturing business in Melbourne found
themselves in need of assistance when their IT manager
of several years left on short notice. Although the
organisation’s HR department knew a good many
of the attributes they desired in a replacement, they
lacked the expertise to correctly assess the technical
merits of each candidate.
chriscore.net was
brought in to sit-in on the final rounds of the interviewing
process to provide a technical assessment of each
candidate. chriscore.net also provided
assistance to the successful candidate during the transition
phase.
Case Study 2 - chriscore.net advises on
hardware procurement
A boutique recruitment firm in Melbourne was stunned
to find themselves quoted $64,000 for the provision
of the hardware necessary to deploy their new SQL-based
application.
chriscore.net was contracted to re-assess
their hardware requirements, analyse the existing
quote, and liaise with a variety of software and hardware
vendors, to create a new specification for this project.
After analysing the client’s actual requirements
a revised quotation demonstrated that only $25,000
in network infrastructure was required to underpin
this project, which made it possible for this client
to proceed. As this client preferred not to engage
a separate systems integrator, chriscore.net also
provided the network engineering services required
to deploy
and support this solution.
Case Study 3 - chriscore.net achieves
telecommunications savings
A Sydney-based multinational found the cost of their
myriad Internet and Wide Area Networking services sky-rocketing
as their business grew to require larger sites and
offices in new regions.
chriscore.net was
contracted to analyse all of their Internet, Remote
Access, and
WAN requirements and was able to outline a roadmap
for consolidation of these services and the introduction
of Virtual Private Networking, which achieved a 30%
reduction in their monthly telecommunications costs
within 3 months.
Case Study 4 - chriscore.net facilitates
change of Systems Integrator
A small real estate firm in Melbourne were dissatisfied
with the level of customer service provided by their
existing Systems Integrator, but felt “locked
in” to this provider because they lacked a proper
understanding of how their own network operated.
chriscore.net performed a thorough
audit of this client’s current
systems and future requirements. Armed with a better
understanding of their own infrastructure, chriscore.net helped
this client develop a Standard Operating Environment.
By establishing the client’s support expectations
and negotiating an appropriate Service Level Agreement,
chriscore.net was able to assist
this client with the task of finding and switching
to a new Systems Integrator.
The client realised an immediate improvement in their
network availability and consequently staff productivity.
