The success of systems infrastructure transformation can depend on many factors beyond the benefits of new technologies.

Even before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, both private and state organisations face the challenge of keeping their infrastructure up to date, both in terms of resources and computing capacity, as well as in terms of control and visualisation.

There are many providers of technology integration services. However, even with this growth, it is important to consider the added value and quality they offer in terms of information security, data protection, previous experience and track record as well as compliance with industry-specific standards, best practices and constant upgrading of technologies.

Here we summarise key points to consider when choosing one.

3 key questions to ask when looking for a technology integrator

1. What is a technology integrator?

Integrators are technology enablers. Above all, they are partners specialised in the optimal use of digital tools. A technology integrator is someone who understands how to use and implement new technologies in your business model, supporting and developing projects that aim at an agile and effective administration, management and use of your technological assets and infrastructure.

2. What are the functions of a technology integrator?

To provide professional services in the field of information and communication technologies.
Assess your company's needs and recommend strategies to manage and meet your business-driven IT requirements.
Supervise, implement or support your technology projects.
They provide continuous management of your systems infrastructure.
Build an efficient and agile technological infrastructure.
A clear reduction in operating costs and increase in performance.

3. What can be expected from a technology integrator?

Integration of your technology

Broadly speaking, integrators bring together independent components - even from different suppliers - to create a single system, suited to a company's particular reality and tasks. They usually combine their knowledge of different economic sectors with their technical skills to create niche solutions.

While equipment manufacturers are limited to the specific technologies they develop and offer, integrators have no such limits and offer flexible options with additional benefits. They then turn to a wide selection of devices, platforms and applications from a variety of sources, which also use established standards.

Understanding your business model

Understand the business model and value chain of each of its clients to propose solutions that meet their specific needs. Developing a system to serve the users of a health service provider is not the same as developing a system for a company that sells mobile phone plans, or a gas turbine factory.

One problem that technology areas suffer from is that they are inundated with a lot of projects that cannot be realised. This is where the integrator's experience in execution, which relies on a clear understanding of your objectives and needs, is important.

Nowadays, in many projects, such as cloud migration or automation projects, knowledge of other areas is important. It is not enough to know about one technology, you need to understand all the necessary technologies.
