The Challenge
Following a period of rapid growth driven by investments from global clients, the client sought to achieve enterprise-wide mergers and acquisitions IT advisory. This included separating parts of the business to streamline IT infrastructure and managed IT services, supporting a growing number of users working both from London and remotely. The rapid expansion had led to inconsistencies and a lack of standardisation across new ventures, as well as insufficient control over IT systems, support, and security.
The client was also planning to open a new office in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
What did
Vibework do
Vibework and our client share a deep appreciation for the synergy of combining scale and global reach with flexibility and agility, making our partnership a natural fit. Since January 2021, Vibework has been collaborating with the client across three key workstreams: Managed IT services, day-to-day IT service desk management, and overseeing multiple offices in London and Dubai.
Switching IT Provider – Changing IT provider can be a daunting task, and it’s essential to understand why you’re considering this transition. Common reasons include current service dissatisfaction, need for advanced technologies, or cost reductions. Identifying the exact needs and gaps in your current IT service will guide you in making an informed decision.
- Vibework successfully migrated Microsoft 365 tenants . This detailed migration process was complemented with a thorough security check and the removal of access for the previous IT provider.
Security and Compliance – Ensuring data security during and after the migration is paramount. After successfully migrating to Vibework, a detailed security check is conducted. This involves verifying the integrity of the data and ensuring that all security protocols are in place. Subsequently, access is removed for the outgoing IT provider to safeguard against any potential vulnerabilities
