  • We can put an experienced System Engineer and CIO who has done this hundreds of times "on your side of the table", before you even speak to a salesperson. We can help you know what to ask for, who to ask for it, how much you should pay for it, and when you should expect to get it.

  • We can help you prepare an area for your IBM i, whether it's a spot in your office space or a data center with a raised floor.
