Infrastructure Audits


It’s time to get an expert opinion.

The goal of an audit is not just to provide answers but also identify future opportunities that may be poorly understood or actively managed so particular attention is paid towards potential gaps and best methods for closing them up.

With our thorough and detailed audit process, we can come up with actionable recommendations on how you can optimise your business for success, now and in the future. Going beyond the physical aspects of your infrastructure, we can assess security risks, hardware vulnerabilities and software performance, ensuring that your facility is running efficiently at all times.

We are the trusted experts with years of experience in IT, to guide you through the process from beginning to end with your business’s best interests in mind. An infrastructure audit is a systematic examination of the current situation and a projection of what the future will look like.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to relocate infrastructure?

It can be a daunting task when it comes to relocating your infrastructure, however our team endeavour to make the transition smooth and simple. We will give you assistance and advice at every step of the process to prevent major disruptions and help you comfortably relocate.

How does a company ensure that their data is secure during a relocation or consolidation project?

The best way for a company to ensure the safety of their data during relocation is to use a professional company that has experience in the task. IDC Solutions has been in the business of making sure businesses have peace of mind when surrounded by potential risk for over 40 years, and is fully experienced with any conceivable disaster scenario that can befall companies.

What are the biggest challenges you face when relocating to a new data center?

Some of the biggest challenges that data center operators face when moving to a new data center are:

  1. Developing the right migration plan.
  2. Taking all necessary precautions before, during and after migration.
  3. Addressing any downstream consequences of migrations.
What should I consider when planning our office’s IT relocation, to keep within budget and meet the deadlines?

Good planning will help your relocation go smoothly and avoid unnecessary costs and lost productivity. An IT move is more complex than simply moving furniture from one place to another. The first step in IDC Solutions’ planning is to consider three essential things:

  1. Your organisation’s current technology needs.
  2. Your organisation’s future technology and infrastructure needs.
  3. Your budget.

Assess your new location in detail. Will the network infrastructure of the previous tenants be sufficient for you? For example, if you work in multimedia you may need to rewire the entire office if you are taking it over from an administrative company that needs only minimal bandwidth.

Ask your property manager for a detailed property plan, showing voice and data network jacks, and electrical outlets. Alternatively, draw your own plan, being careful to measure rooms accurately and show the layout of the existing infrastructure. Mark any areas where you think there may not be enough power and network access. Use the plan to try different configurations of equipment, in consultation with your co-workers and staff. And use it to plan ahead – such as adding network wiring and access points to currently unused areas, so you are ready for future office expansion.

If you plan on keeping your servers at your office, make sure you have a suitable server room. Check that your servers will fit and that it has good independent air conditioning, i.e. a supply that won’t turn warm in Winter or that air conditioning can be installed. Will the room need more data drops and is there capacity for additional servers in the future?

When it comes to installing network and phone cables, involve your installers and network professionals as soon as possible. Your pre-planning will help you to communicate your needs, both now and in the future, so that you can take advantage of their expertise when it comes to planning the implementation. A few hiccups are part of every move, but with a solid plan in place, you will reduce the potential for problems – and you will be able to resolve any that do arise much more efficiently.

Better network design resulting in more efficient data cabling for increased productivity


Structured cabling is a network of cables that are strategically positioned and run through a building, office or campus (there are many more scenarios, but they are just a few to get started). The benefits of using structured cabling in data centres include:

●    Organisation and Labeling (did someone say OCD?)

●    Easier troubleshooting and problem diagnosis

●    High protection and fewer risks of disruption to the system

●    Increased speed for data transmission between rooms or floors

●    Keeps redundant paths open

●    Safety (think lower fire risk or electrical hazards)

If you want to know more about structured cabling, we’ve got experts for that. Our team has been designing these solutions since before things like Wi-Fi or Internet were even cool.

Our Structured Data Cabling specialists are certified technicians with years of experience.
