Our focus with Nexus Planning has been on building a strategic, long-term partnership from day one. As their dedicated IT partner, we provide ongoing IT support across their entire workforce, ensuring day-to-day operations run smoothly while aligning their technology with long-term business goals.
Through regular account meetings and open, ongoing communication, we’re working closely with their leadership team to shape a 12–18-month IT strategy—covering everything from infrastructure upgrades to productivity enhancements and risk mitigation.
We don’t just respond to issues—we help anticipate and plan for them, making sure Nexus has the tools, flexibility, and support they need to grow sustainably and confidently.
Challenge:
When Nexus Planning separated from their former parent company, they faced the complex task of building a fully independent IT environment from scratch. With five offices, a growing user base, and a diverse range of software needs, they required more than just a standard IT setup—they needed a tailored, strategic approach that would allow them to grow with confidence.
Among the key challenges were a manual, time-consuming laptop setup process that disrupted productivity, and the logistical pressure of managing a short-notice office move while maintaining business continuity. These issues underscored the need for a responsive, scalable IT solution that could support both immediate demands and long-term growth.
Solution:
Rather than replicating their previous setup, we worked with Nexus Planning to build a fully cloud-based IT environment from the ground up—aligned to their goals and scalable for future growth.
The onboarding project was a success—providing a smooth transition and establishing a modern, secure IT foundation. When faced with a short-notice office move, we ensured a seamless relocation with minimal disruption.
Key deliverables included:
- A new domain and cloud servers, with reliable leased line connectivity across all sites
- A secure MPLS network to support seamless collaboration
- Tools like Mimecast, Exclaimer, and Ruckus Cloud for enhanced security, branding, and Wi-Fi management
- Microsoft Intune with Autopilot to simplify and speed up laptop deployment
