Architecture and Integration

The Business Challeng

Network technology is increasingly complex, and the seamless integration of that technology into your environment can present many challenges. The decision to move forward with a particular vendor solution or refresh your current environment is only the beginning of the design process. A range of integration activities need to be addressed so that the new technology is implemented without disruption to production services. Key among these is having a comprehensive migration plan when considering a new LAN or WAN architecture.

The AT&T Solution

AT&T Consulting Solutions can provide you with an optimal and cost effective solution architecture, combined with a structured approach for integration. We focus on the delivery of application services via the infrastructure and well conceived migration and integration plans which minimize or eliminate service downtime. During our Architecture and Integration engagements, we typically:

  • Validate requirements, including reviewing the suitability of the manufacturer's Bill of Materials to current business need
  • Create configuration standards
  • Develop test plans (network and end user)
  • Develop integration and migration plans
  • Define processes for operations turn-over
  • Develop as-built documentation
  • Perform knowledge transfer to key stakeholders
