Managed Partnership Program
LANStatus began providing Network Operations Center (NOC) monitoring, managed infrastructure Services and the “Square peg, round hole” methodology for what we now call End User Computing.
It was an agreement for one company to provide a service to another, period. In concept, it was a good but it was doomed to failure for many reasons of which, staffing, expectations and communication were the keys.
The Managed Partnership Program is a modernized version of managed services that focuses on increasing the value of full-time employed engineers, partnering closely with client to ensure clear communication that will accurately define the expectations of deliverables.
Success is achieved when all parts are moving in sync with an understanding of the direction and goal. The key is understanding where clients need help and then filling those gaps to ensure their success.

Changing the ‘-as-a-Service’ Conversation
The ‘as-a-Service business model was never completely understood, properly positioned or executed and today, ‘Managed-as-a-Service’ Offerings have many meanings, horrible feedback and bad reputations that many wonder, why is this considered an option today. Managed Services were touted as a way to reduce payroll and offer companies worry-free systems management that could reclaimed $1000’s of dollar’s of yearly budget.
Managed Services are not about replacing full-time employees but rather As-a-service offering that enhances their productivity while increasing their value to the company.
LANStatus Managed services does this by removing day-to-day tasks and maintenance that drains the productive work from full-time employees. When unburdened of these tasks, full-time employees have greater focus, increased productivity to achieve company objectives faster that increases the value and retainment of the employee with the company.

Assessment
An Assessment refers to a review of the current state of a technology infrastructure in regards to hardware, software, applications and typically, client specific aspects. It is this Assessment report that serves as a guide to the potential impacts as well as risk of change within an organization. An Assessment is usually focused on specific infrastructure components of a client but all scope is defined to the client’s requirements.
Health Check
A Technology Health Check is a system centric, short and sharp review of that specific technologies current state. It identifies limitations, missing components and system risks that need more urgent attention to ensure a properly working system.
It is recommended for key systems responsible for strategic company applications, that this health check be performed once a year.
Residency Services
This broad spectrum of Professional Services options that fill the technology gaps that plague clients today from a new, full-time staff for one technology or staffing for many technologies to immediate access to a technical resource when in crisis.
Residency Staffing
This is a full-time staffing position that can be remote or on-site for a single technology with pricing based upon the technical expertise required for the position.
A solution for those clients requiring the temporary staffing for a single technology expert like losing your VMware, Citrix or Microsoft administrator. Clients need to fill the gap of time required to find, hire, on-board and acclimate a new hire into the environment. It is easier to get the right, permanent resource when you don’t have to rush the process.
Fractional Staffing
