HOW WE DO IT

Historically IT Asset/Configuration Management has been the recording of assets in a documented format with little or no real change control process to back it up, relevant data about each device, value of operation or how it impacts the network should it fail.

Hardware provides the medium for information to be shared, however applications, customer traffic and data flow are business critical, downtime can be costly and ability to identify risk, associated costs and plan contingencies in order to manage your network downtime on an informed basis.

OUR PROCESS

Experience has shown that in order to undertake a successful Network Asset Management project, companies need help & advice. We have found that the most cost effective long term solution is for Spearhead to provide a total package, leveraging all this disparate information into a single virtual CMDB repository and visualise it.

But why do you need to visualise it?

Quite simply, you cannot manage what you cannot see. Because we visualise the underlying data what you see is not just a collection of diagrams but a living breathing representation of your organisation, showing all the relationships, vertical & horizontal across the infrastructure and the business, allowing you at a glance to examine the complex web of your network and the business it supports.

Spearhead can help you get started, advise on the structure of your project, help gather data and give you a head start. Once you are underway you have the comfort of knowing that at any point you can call on us to guide you when you need it most.
