Cloud Technology
The as-a-service offering has become the centre of all technology initiatives providing organisations with the agility and scalability to deliver change. These services include SaaS (Software as a Service), IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) and PaaS (Platform as a Service) amongst others. Cloud adoption is now deemed to be in the top ten change programmes of established organisations and cornerstone for new start-ups building their setup from scratch as cloud native. To ensure the setup is optimised for the organisation, our team design and build using the following model.
Modern Workplace
Many organisations are either planning, or progressing their Modern Workplace journey to deliver digital capabilities that embrace technologies that range from business applications, email, instant messaging, document collaboration, video, and voice.
We have teams experienced in assisting organisations to successfully deliver their Modern Workplace transformation by structuring the design within the 5 pillars of Security & Identity, Mobility, Productivity and Collaboration.
We have facilitated organisations to enhance the mobility of their workforce by implementing the Microsoft 365 enterprise suite of products, including Azure AD, Intune, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams.
Cost Optimisation
Operational overheads form part of a significant percentage in every organisation yearly budget which restrict their turnover or available funding for business change, or both. It is important for every business to have control of their expenses with periodic reviews to optimise spend. In most cases, this exercise is generally only carried out at times when business status requires a reduction of expenses. NorthSky can help you with optimising your technology overheads:

Crisis Management
With the rapidly evolving technology landscape and the growing dependency on having the technology consistently available, organisations need to conduct thorough risk analysis and mitigation exercises. Businesses need an enhanced crisis management plan which integrates into their business continuity model. As we have all seen from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic throughout 2020, it is critical to have your technology configured and your plans in place to allow your teams to react quickly, safely and effectively to any environmental threat that may cause disruption to your workforce.
We have experience assisting companies in mitigating their risks and developing a crisis management plan. Our team can also assist you in the event of a crisis to return to normal business operations.
Automation
Digital technology requires IT processes to become automated using software to replace repeatable tasks or activities that require manual intervention. This removes time-consuming processes and helps business efficiency and agility. Automation is a necessity for companies to manage their complex modern workplace.
Implementation success begins with the appropriate design, whereby organisations can gain several benefits:
Efficiency: quicker time to market | self-service | increased productivity | reduced error-rate
Resilience: improved security | secure systems | self-healing
Cost: workforce optimisation | reduced operating costs
We have helped organisations realise these benefits by introducing automated processes into their information security schedules. This has kept their systems secure, enabling the IT teams to concentrate on strategic planning and support.
