TECHNOLOGY

SilverLining Partners has the expertise to detail for its clients the capability, capacity, and risks of their corporate network design. Four key audits are:

• NETWORK ASSET AUDIT: Our “discovery audit” isolates and identifies your network components, creates a network map and performs a WAN/LAN performance analysis on high traffic links to determine the overall serviceability of your network. We will also evaluate your existing maintenance contracts to determine if any vendor overcharges have occurred.

• VOIP NETWORK BENCHMARKING: The introduction of new technology usually requires the need to add bandwidth, re-engineer portions of a network, assess and acquire new management tools and reconfigure routers. Without performing a baseline “quality of service” analysis, the abundance of bandwidth you believe exists may not be there. This audit evaluates the impact of your voice traffic onto your data network and offers key recommendations to avoid cutover disasters.

• CALL CENTER CERTIFICATION: Internal “help desks” require an annual evaluation to ensure internal employee needs are being satisfied, corporate assets are cared for and support vendors are properly charging. With our proven HD audit process, we will analyze your call center(s) and report on shortfalls, excesses, satisfaction, vendor delivery/performance-to-contract, cost effectiveness and can evaluate current center capabilities vs. future corporate technology impact and demands.

• NETWORK SECURITY AUDIT: Recent regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley and HIPAA have enhanced the need of internal control validation of corporate information and communication. Our security audit service benchmarks who is touching your routers, servers, databases and applications while revisiting your security policy as one component within a full compliance study.

An alternative program offered is the auditing of service-focused (traditional or professional) operations that are under review as a future capital acquisition or corporate re-evaluation. In those circumstances, we will conduct in-depth due diligence of all service facets including operations, internal client satisfaction, service contracts, and baseline technology assessment; delivering an independent analysis of our complete operational findings.
