Intact launches INDesign Centre of Excellence for its Cisco network infrastructure design activities
- Leading Cisco Service Extension partner to offer capability for the production of optimised Cisco high level, mid level and low level network infrastructure designs.
Intact Integrated Services, the UK’s leading Cisco Service Extension Partner, has launched INDesign – its specialist new Centre of Excellence that will provide the company’s expanding pool of systems integrators and Cisco partners with a comprehensive portfolio of high level, mid level and low level network infrastructure designs for both UK and international projects.
INDesign will leverage Intact’s proven design capabilities to provide partners with a distinctive design delivery service backed by the highest standards of governance, process and quality.
Partners implementing major Cisco-based LAN, WAN, IPT and WLAN network infrastructure solutions for their customers will be provided with end-to-end support. Intact will engage with them from the initial customer needs identification process, through pre-sales support and project definition to production. INDesign can produce high level network topology designs, mid-level designs for hardware selection and capacity definition, and the low-level designs that define precise end-user site deployments. Intact will also provide expert advice on technical network infrastructure design, as well as standardised documentation for large-scale projects.
“We’ve launched our INDesign Centre of Excellence in direct response to a growing demand from our channel customers for support for their network infrastructure activities,” commented Bob Dalton, Intact Integrated Services’ Managing Director. “Given the pressures our major systems integrators and larger resellers face in defining, designing and specifying their major networking projects, we’re confident that our new offering will provide them with a valuable resource that will help them deliver against key project deadlines and SLAs.
“We’re also determined to support our network design output with the highest quality assurance and governance standard, so all activities are backed by full ISO quality and ITIL service management standards to provide our customers with the highest levels of assurance,” added Bob. “With INDesign we’re able to bring all of an organisation’s high, mid and low level design work together in one specialist centre, and can also support our partners with added value activities such as site surveys and expert technical advice to help them optimise the networking element of their project delivery.”
INDesign also maps all its design and advice activities to Cisco’s standard PPDIOO – Plan, Prepare, Design, Implement, Operate, Optimise – process.
