Consulting

Through the depth and range of expertise within the Kytec Group, we are able to offer high end consulting to customers of all sizes in order to match their business processes and to their technology requirements. No two businesses are exactly the same and hence when proposing new technology into an organisation, it is essential that the business goals, processes and growth strategies are all taken into account.

With average lifespans of technology equipment now ranging from 3-5 years, decisions on technology should not be taken lightly. Consequences and costs associated with making a wrong decision far outweigh any argument against engaging professional consultancy to ensure that the technology that is recommended is not only suitable for the company as it is today, but also future proof and suitable for the company as it is going to be tomorrow.

Strategic Planning

By providing high level consultancy services to customers of all sizes, Kytec are able to assist their clients by preparing high level IT strategy documents and plans in compliance with the industry's best practices and current marketplace trends. These documents are then used to ensure that all decisions made on technology throughout the organisation are aligned with the overall strategy, allowing higher Return on Investments and reductions in the Total Cost of Ownership for their IT and communications infrastructure.

Network Design

Network infrastructure is the core foundation for all other technology related services run on a network. For this reason, it is essential that the network is designed in such a way as to maximise redundancy, minimise congestion and allow for future scalability. As more and more technology is becoming reliant on an IP network, the dependency on the core infrastructure such as switching and routing and server infrastructure is only going to increase. Costs associated with any downtime are higher than ever due to higher employment costs and increases in our reliance on technology for our day to day duties.

Kytec provides network design services to organisations of all sizes producing networks based on tier 1 hardware and designed with the levels of redundancy, scalability and throughput as required by the particular client's business. The result are stable, scalable networks acting as a foundation for the other services to be deployed within the network.

Following the network infrastructure design, Kytec are also often engaged to design the server infrastructure to provide the client with the data storage and processing requirements that their business applications require.

Network Security Audits

In today's society network and data security is now paramount. With the increase of our reliance on desktop computing and the availability of simple hacking tools, both malicious and opportunistic attacks are on the rise. Costs associated with security breaches can range from lost productivity due to down time to much larger costs associated with private internal documents becoming public.

When performing security and network audits, Kytec highlight any anomalies in the current network structure that could potentially impact on either network performance, redundancy or data security. For each potential risk factor, an associated recommendation to alleviate the risk or remove the problem is also included.

Business Process Improvement

By evaluating their current processes and procedures, organisations are often able to streamline the flow of information and data resulting in increased efficiency and reduction in costs. Kytec are well equipped to assist in this process producing recommendations on methods and software to streamline processes and data flows throughout the organisation resulting in decreased costs through improvements in organisational efficiency.
