Assessments evaluate the current condition of a designed or implemented network via documentation reviews or onsite network analysis. An assessment can help to prevent or fix network issues by evaluating the network, documenting design or implementation issues and offering resolutions, as well as provide information about potential problems that could result in future unplanned downtime.
Assessments can help you determine if the network is able to meet the functional requirements you need to achieve your goals.
- Design Assessment — Network design reviews your existing design documentation (network layout, Bill of Material (BOM), cable schedules, configuration plans) to ensure the specified components, network architecture and network configuration scheme will meet your functional requirements. Your deliverable is a summary that can be used to ensure all vendor designs will interconnect without any issues, to verify the design is within your specific requirements or to offer third-party review.
- Onsite General Assessments — This is a one day review of the network,s installation, configuration and information. You will receive a summary of findings with a rated criticality and high level path forward.
- Onsite Comprehensive Assessment — This assessment focuses on your need (issue, upgrade or expansion),and can include operational tests, physical media testing or specific issue identification. Your deliverable is a summary that will assist you in preventing downtime by bringing your network up to optimal condition.
