LAN and WAN network optimisation

Our proven track record in LAN and WAN optimisation has helped our clients typically secure revenue gains of between 10-30%.

Our project outputs provide the client with infrastructure hotspots and limitations, and advise of any ancillary application issues to be examined. If appropriate, we will suggest alternative designs, specifications or changes to the environment that will improve performance and/or save costs. Where necessary, we will challenge the service provider or carrier, who is invariably keen to provide more capacity, if  the performance of the network can be improved through more creative or skilful design.

The benefits of our optimisation service include:

  • transparent matching of infrastructure design with business requirements or expectations, thereby increasing end-user satisfaction
  • optimisation of LAN/WAN infrastructure performance within the parameters of the client’s budget
  • application roll-out and performance are properly considered and matched to the constitution of the infrastructure
  • infrastructure design and bandwidth allocations are right-sized to minimise costs
  • technology considerations and recommendations ensure that all developmental or evolutionary options are identified and made known to the client
  • removal of redundant or poorly designed infrastructure aspects leads to a reduction in network and service management requirements
  • a sound understanding of the network estate and configuration, traffic profiles, impact tolerances and security/continuity risks (this depends on the scope of the work commissioned).

The processes and toolsets we use to analyse networks are enhanced both through our own experience and as the available tools themselves become more sophisticated and the technologies used within the networks change.

Clients include:

  • Barclays Bank
  • 3i International
  • A leading online transaction processing company
  • Transport for London
