The IT Services journey
Here at Business Direct we provide a range of services for all your IT requirements. This means we can do everything from simply supplying hardware, to designing and managing complex networks. You can mix and match services to suit your business needs. Our fully trained IT Specialists are always happy to offer impartial advice.
Plan your IT project
An IT project might begin with a site survey. It can save you time and money later on, as you’ll be confident that everything’s in place ready for installation. A site survey helps ensure your final solution perfectly meets your needs. It covers things like finding the optimum installation location and making sure your new kit has power and internet connectivity. Or that it can be safely installed if it’s heavy or awkward.
Finance your IT project
The next step of the journey is to purchase your kit, but you may want to consider finance or leasing options. Lots of businesses choose to lease their IT equipment because it gives them greater control over their cash flow. Paying monthly means that your IT spend could be moved from CAPEX to OPEX.
Prepare your IT kit
This part of the process ensures that when it’s time to install your kit, it’s ready to go straight out of the box. Configuration is done before delivery. It could include a specific hardware build, PAT testing and asset tagging. Or even adding your corporate software and image on devices.
Deploy your IT solution
We can install your new kit in or out of hours to suit your business and reduce any downtime. Your new kit will be unboxed, set up and ready for your people to use straight away. We can even arrange for your old equipment to be recycled as part of the installation process.
Enable your people
When your new IT kit has been installed, it’s important to ensure that you’re making the most of your investment. We can provide training sessions to help your people use IT equipment with confidence. This covers everything from devices and printers to AV and conferencing kit in meeting rooms.
Protect your IT investment
After your new equipment has been successfully deployed, you’ll want to ensure that it’s properly maintained. This is critical for your organisation's continuity. You can choose from a range of services for your IT estate. We offer different levels of support depending on your needs, from extended device warranties to a bespoke managed service contract.
