Zabardast Technology's Consultancy Services
ICT consulting services refer to the professional advice and assistance provided by experts in the field of Information and Communication Technology to organizations or individuals seeking guidance on various aspects of technology, information systems, and digital transformation. These services can include:
1. Technology Strategy and Planning: ICT consultants can help businesses develop an overall technology strategy aligned with their organizational goals and objectives. This involves assessing current technology infrastructure, identifying areas for improvement, and formulating a roadmap for future technology investments.
2. IT Infrastructure Assessment and Design: Consultants can assess an organization's existing IT infrastructure, including networks, servers, storage systems, and other hardware components. They can provide recommendations for optimizing and enhancing the infrastructure to improve performance, scalability, and security.
3. Systems Integration: ICT consultants can assist in integrating disparate systems and applications within an organization. This involves designing and implementing solutions that enable seamless data flow and communication between different software systems, ensuring efficient business processes.
4. Cybersecurity and Risk Management: Consultants can assess an organization's cybersecurity posture, identify vulnerabilities, and recommend measures to protect against threats and breaches. They can develop and implement security policies, conduct penetration testing, and provide training to enhance the organization's overall security.
5. Cloud Computing and Virtualization: Consultants can help organizations transition to cloud-based solutions, including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). They can advise on cloud strategy, evaluate service providers, and assist with migration and integration of applications and data.
6. Digital Transformation: ICT consultants can guide organizations through digital transformation initiatives, helping them leverage emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, Internet of Things (IoT), and big data analytics to drive innovation, improve efficiency, and enhance customer experience.
7. Project Management: ICT consultants can provide project management services for technology initiatives, ensuring successful planning, execution, and delivery of projects within specified timelines and budgets. They can help manage project resources, mitigate risks, and ensure alignment with business objectives.
These are just a few examples of the broad range of services that we can offer as ICT consultants. The specific services provided will depend on the client's needs and requirements.
Internet/Intranet/Extranet
Zabardast Technology recognized the explosive potential of the Internet and the limitless commercial benefits of the World Wide Web from an early date. We have designed our structure to meet the requirements of every level of commercial Internet connection. Power and speed are a necessary benefit at every level, but cost benefits must be factored into the final decision. Each case is treated on its own, taking into account growth potential and other long range considerations. Our services include Internet connection, from basic dial up to high speed pipelines Internet address designations, from basic IP and e-mail to exclusive domain addresses Security and related firewall applications Sales, installation, maintenance and instruction for communications applications Web Design, Production and Maintenance Once you are connected, we can help in developing or starting you on your way to develop an Intranet, and if required, an Extranet.
What's an Intranet
Communication is critical, especially within an organization and an Intranet is a communication infrastructure. An Intranet is essentially a private Internet. Just as the Internet dispenses information any time on just about any topic you can imagine, the Intranet can, if utilized properly, make any information from your company available to your employees at any time. It is a relatively inexpensive business tool, especially if you have already invested in an enterprise wide network. Depending on the system you set up, training should be minimal and the information that can be posted is limitless, ranging from client databases, product information, and project information to company phone directory lists, newsletters and announcements for company parties. If you need help in setting it up and maintenance, give us a call, we would be happy to help you. Now that you know what an Intranet is, do you need an outside consultant to build an Intranet for you. If you already have someone on-site who knows about coding and how to post items to the Internet, you could more than likely build your own Intranet; if you do not, it couldn't hurt to have someone give you a little guidance. Again Zabardast Technology would be more than happy to help.
What's an Extranet
An Extranet is a closed transactional web site that facilitates the timely communication between suppliers and customers. What does that mean? It selectively allows your suppliers or customers to access your network through filters, which enables them to place purchase orders, submit quotes, etc directly to you. This is not a new concept, however it is the first non-proprietary tool that supports the evolution of electronic commerce. If you are interested in hearing more about this exciting new wave, contact us.
Electronic Commerce / Intranet / Extranet Consulting:
Creating the 21st Century Business / Enabling Enterprise Communities
Electronic commerce capabilities are transforming businesses and the very nature of business. Intranet and extranet services are bringing the deepest and fastest process change in organizational history. Exploiting this requires ongoing re-alignment of corporate and marketing objectives in congruence with the supporting IT and business operations functions. Companies are beginning to apply Web publishing, electronic commerce, messaging, and groupware to multiple communities of customers, partners, and internal staff. Even the terminology (inter-, intra-, extra-) gets stuck in obsolete boundaries that miss the new “ad-hocracies” of virtual communities. Public Web sites, intranets, and extranets are evolving and integrating. Enterprises that fail as early exploiters or quick followers of these revolutionary enabling technologies risk being blind-sided by more imaginative and nimble competitors. The opportunities include quantum improvements in: marketing, sales, service, and logistics extended enterprise partnerships, and communication and coordination.
The needs
To identify and address these dynamic opportunities takes a multidisciplinary team that combines vision with pragmatism – to assess the options, set sound priorities, and ensure effective follow through. It requires people who appreciate the new medium, as well as the realities of business operations and technical support – who can look inside and outside the enterprise – and who can apply strong project management and consensus building skills.
Our services
We can contribute in roles ranging from full-time leadership or participation in your team, to short, discrete projects. An ongoing part-time involvement, as supplement to in-house skills, is often most appropriate. Tasks in which we can assist or lead include: Opportunity assessment Infrastructure issues/resources/constraints (technical, operational, and organizational) Strategy development and approval Proposals, white papers, consensus building Project planning, coordination, tracking, and quality assurance

ISP Technology Consultancy
It's a fact. Almost fifty percent of the annual running costs for any communications network are down to operations and maintenance. And less than fifteen percent have anything to do with equipment at all. The rest? That's down to capital costs, marketing and public telecom interconnect charges. And that's not the end of the story.
As a network gets older, the cost bias shifts even further away from equipment and technology. So what does this have to do with us? In short, because we agree. It's all true. Over the last 10 years we have worked with many companies and researched others. Sometimes this meant integrating a few pieces of our equipment into an existing setup, sometimes designing a whole new one. But in every case, our role has involved far more than simply supplying a few boxes of parts.
So what? So we are now highly experienced as a supplier of technology. Which is experience that our clients can use to run their systems more effectively and efficiently. Look at it this way. Why commit valuable resources to running a huge support organization when you can find someone to do the work for you? Why waste time trying to find skilled staff when they're already available to you? Why get involved in all the tedious detail of system development when you could be concentrating on growing your business? The service aspects cover every aspect of your system and business operations, from initial business planning through system design and integration all the way to maintenance, performance improvement and management.
Each service can be viewed as a standalone solution to a particular need, or as part of an integrated package of services providing a total system and business solution. Whatever your driving factors, whether your're looking for speed to market, cost control (or savings) or easy management, the service solutions will be tailored to meet your precise requirements. Turn-key solutions delivered with a service level agreement that ensures that we are as committed to meeting your targets as you are.
The technology business has a problem - it can be very, very lucrative. Which may not sound like too much of a problem to you, but it does mean that lots of organisations are tempted to try their hand at technology operation. And this makes for some pretty stiff competition. With all those competitors out to grab a share of your market (or even if you're out to grab a share of theirs), you need to be sure that your business and systems are headed in the right direction.
The business consultine services will help you make sure that they are, whtever your starting point. And that can be with an established system or even if you haven't yet made your feasibility study. As a technology supplier we are also a supplier with knowledge. And because our customers include IT and Communications enterprises, that knowledge extends to practically every kind of system.
Whether you're planning a modest extension to your network, or intending to build a whole new one from sctrtch, the network design solution lets you captalise on our experience which we have gained with such a diverse customer base.
The best plan in the world is no good at all if you can't exeute it. And when you are in the business of networks, what you need is a working network. As quickly as possible. Without it, you will have no revenue coming in.
With network implementation and integration, we make younetwork design plan real. Bringing the reports, maps and recommendations to life.
In an increasingly competitive world technology market it can be almost as hard to attract the right staff as to attract the right customers. There is a huge demand for the best people out there. We know, we have to compete for them just like you do. But you could avoid the issue altogether, by developing the skills of your existing staff. And in so doing, not only will you increase tha value of those people to your organisation, you'll also be building a long-term competitive advantage.
We can help you achieve and maintain that competitive afvantage.
Modern networks are very reliable indeed. Average system downtime is so low that sometimes you may wonder whether you need field maintenance engineers at all. Then you reliase how hard it can be to keep up with increasingly complex network technology.
At the heart of your netowk lies computers, and the applications that they run provide all of your network's functionality. Those applications are constantly being enhanced, upgraded to offer new functionality or adapted to suit changes in technology.
This continuous development and improvement of software places great importance on the ability to get the best support. So while your need for field maintenance engineers really is less than in years gone by, it has been replaced by the need for a support organisation that can assist you in handling even the most complex problems that arise.
As inventors of technology solutions, we are uniquely placed to provide the support you need. The better your system is, the more likely it is you are going to have to improve it. Why? Because you will be attracting customers, and sooner or later, you will need to increase capacity and coverage, not to mention the efficiency and reliability of your network.
But establishing the optimum increase can be very hard indeed. And the consequences of getting it wrong, both financial and in customer dissatisfaction, are huge.
Too small an increase and capacity will lag behind, creating use frustation and promoting user `churn'. Too large and increase and you will not only waste valuable resources, but increase the maintenance and operation overhead unnecessarily.
We will help you find that optimum increase.
You are building a business, but why should that mean building a huge support organisation as well?
Establishing a structure and finding the skilled staff to operate a network takes time, and means less time to make sure that the business is working properly.
It is even more significant for organisations building private corporate networks. Running a system just becomes an expensive distraction from your core business.
By now, you'll have seen that we can help with each individual aspect of running your network. The next step is integrating all those elements, looking after all operational matters for you, the network managenet solution.
When you buy equipment from us, you know what you want and what you will get. Finally, buying consultancy and other operational services is no different.
You want a cost-effective solution to any kind of business and operational need. And with us, that is what you get.
Individually, each service solution offers a package of services tailored to the needs of your business, reflectine the differences between every kind of private and public network. Together, they form an integrated solution for netowrk operations that will help your business prosper.
We will help you raise the quality of your services , to attract new customers and keep existing customers loyal. We'll work with you to improve the efficiency of your business, increase the return on investment and secure your business's future.
