IT Consulting Raleigh Businesses Have Trusted For 24+ Years

Chances are your IT environment has evolved gradually.  Over time, issues can emerge; performance problems, inefficiencies, unintended information silos, and security gaps can take form.  At times it can be difficult for an organization to clearly see issues that need to be addressed in their technology infrastructure.

Without an objective outside perspective, it is often difficult to know where to invest your limited IT resources.  CSP has developed a structured, comprehensive set of Information Technology Assessments to address this problem.  Through CSP’s IT Assessment services, your business can hire an expert for a short-term engagement to perform an independent assessment of your various technology implementations.

CSP can provide a comprehensive assessment of your current IT environment to identify strengths and weakness in your computer systems, and offer recommendations for the future.  Depending on your priorities, we may focus on areas such as hardware, software, network design, security, storage, and communications.  Assessments are based on industry best practices, and we utilize specialized tools and resources not available to most businesses.  Techniques include on-site engineering surveys and interviews with key personnel.  Upon completion of the assessment, you will receive a comprehensive report detailing our findings and an in-depth, professional consultation to discuss our recommendations.
