As our team continues to prepare for the onsite install we will forecast sub-optimal devices.
This will provide your leadership team with an understanding of any potential devices that we recommend replacing that are near end of life.
Step 5:
Onsite Install & Portal Training
All of the preparation in the previous steps has prepared us for this moment, it’s now time for the onsite install.
Our technicians conduct one final backup prior to reimaging all network devices.
Our installations typically occur on weekends to ensure that we do not impact daily operations.
Our technicians will be by your side for the first day that your team returns to office to ensure that we can answer any questions or address any potential issues quickly.
Step 6:
Local Fixes & Policy Maturity
Our onsite and remote teams work together during this phase to ensure all devices can be accessed/maintained by our Help Desk team.
By this time CSS should start receiving comments back from the Policy and Procedure review that was conducted by your team.
Our Compliance Team will schedule a call to go over any areas of concern that we notice in the comments submitted by your team.
Once all change requests are confirmed, our Compliance Team will develop the final version of Policies and Procedures for approval.
