Seven levels
of one system.
Scroll to assemble the building. Hover any level to locate it.
Network Design, Support & Integration
Wired and wireless infrastructure specified, installed and maintained. Structured cabling and riser through switch configuration, then monitored continuously against agreed response times.
Security
Video surveillance, credentialed access control, perimeter hardening and network security, designed as one system rather than as separate purchases from separate vendors.
Telecom Services
VoIP and unified communications, including carrier coordination and number porting. Migrations are sequenced so lines stay live through cutover.
Cloud Based Computing
Assessment, migration and managed operations across public, private and hybrid environments, with workload placement decided on cost, latency and data residency.
Application Development
Scalable information management systems and enterprise wide workflow, integrated with the databases, directories and reporting you already run.
Program & Project Management
A named project manager, a written schedule and a change process across engagements spanning multiple trades, sites and stakeholders. The discipline that keeps the other six from failing at the handoffs.
Audio Visual Solutions
Conference rooms, command centers and training facilities delivered as one commissioned build, handed over documented and with operator training.
Most projects fail at the seams between contractors.
We hold all seven disciplines in house, so the joins are ours to manage rather than yours to referee. One contract, one schedule, one number to call when something needs attention.
Lagos State Judiciary
The Judiciary Information System.
Our team of ICT professionals from the United States and Nigeria worked with the Lagos State Honorable Chief Judge and the commissioned ICT committee to design, develop and deliver an e-filing and case management platform, the first of its kind in Nigeria.
Litigants and the public file suits and make payments online over a secured web portal. Legal counsel file from their chambers and track cases from anywhere in the world through a secure login. Judges manage cases from assignment and scheduling through hearing, judgment and post judgment.
Built for organisations
that cannot improvise.
The same standard of documentation and scheduling for each.
01Government agencies
Public institutions needing documented delivery, defined response times and a contractor who understands procurement. Our work with the Lagos State Judiciary and the U.S. Department of Health was delivered to exactly this standard.
02Enterprise and commercial
Organisations consolidating a fragmented set of vendors into one accountable relationship, usually starting with network or security and expanding once they see what a single schedule does to delivery.
03Education and training
Integrated networks for schools and tertiary institutions, computer education built into the curriculum, web based distance learning, and training centres that equip people with employable skills.
The people who will
run your project.
Two decades of enterprise and government infrastructure.
