Project Management
Federal agencies are under increased pressure to successfully complete projects on time and on budget. The PMI Whitepaper sponsored by the National Academy of Public Administration in 2015 and the subsequent passage of the Program Management Improvement and Accountability Act of 2015 (PMIAA), now signed into law (PL 114-264), are indicators of the amount of visibility project and program management now have within the Federal government. But when struggling with the day-to-day management of an IT infrastructure, taking on additional projects fostered by new technology can seem overwhelming.
When developing requirements for new Proof-of-Concepts or complex solution implementations, consider including project management resources. With our industry leading partners, M2 Technology can provide these resources as part of any technical solution we offer; leading the effort to help you define your project goals, requirements and Statement of Work.
Implementation
When implementing new technology, the scope of the effort can vary widely from initial installation and connectivity to full turnkey, end-user verified / tested environments. Whether your Scope of Work has been designed utilizing the services of M2 Technology’s Solutions Architects or has been defined through other methods, M2 Technology can respond with our highly experienced team to execute the task. M2 Technology works with our industry leading partners to provide the qualified services for your implementation needs. We stand by our work and our partners to deliver your required solution.
Maintenance and Support
Providing the required maintenance of the hardware and software in your Data Center can be a challenge for many Federal agencies.
Initially, support is provided at the start of a project or technical refresh. However, equipment life cycles often outlast the warranty period and require reoccurring follow up on maintenance services. M2 Technology has relationships with all leading OEMs and 3rd party manufacturers to meet all your support system requirements.
Whether the desire is to obtain the manufacture’s most current renewal information or find ways to make contract renewal easier M2 Technology can help.
We have helped many of our customers:
- Analyze long term maintenance requirements to get optimal terms, conditions and pricing
- Evaluate equipment whose warranty service is expiring and prorate the services so they can be merged into existing maintenance contracts achieving synchronized renewal dates
- Consolidate products from multiple OEMs, manage expiration dates and renewal cycles so that they can be bid as a single effort thereby reducing overall costs in the long term
- Offer on-premise pay-for-consumption only contracts (for a project or an entire data center) which include maintenance for the term period required, thereby simplifying the renewal process
Make your maintenance renewal and contracting efforts easier, engage M2 Technology to help you navigate the process, provide market information and market research of your IT infrastructure maintenance and support.
