We:
- Completed handover and lock out of previous IT vendor.
- Supplied Microsoft Office365 and migrated all licences seamlessly from the previous vendor.
- Supplied and installed a VOIP telephone system initially into temporary offices then moved to The Edinburgh Grand once the build was handed over.
- Worked with NET2 door entry provider to ensure the installation running on top of the Network went smoothly.

- Consulted with furniture builders to ensure the bespoke reception desk was able to support the IT equipment required.
- Delivered and distributed a leased line and subdivided the connection to commercial lets within the building.
