Whether your company is trying to decide what telecommunications technology to use or your company produces telecommunications products, making technology choices is not easy. Most companies simply do not have the kind of resource on staff that can connect various technology directions and choices to their strategic and operational plans. Too often technology choices are based on the limited knowledge base of a committee, or worse, left to the recommendation of whatever equipment vendor makes the best sales presentation. Mystis Solutions believes that corporate executives can better spend their time focused on running day to day operations rather than trying to figure out why one technology is better than another. Mystis Solutions will make clear recommendations for technologies that can be directly implemented. Mystis Solutions will connect technology choices to your company's operational plans and financial goals. Mystis Solutions will even take responsibility for implementing our own recommendations. Our strong team is staffed with seasoned executives from all walks of telecommunications life, from start-up to Fortune 500.

INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION Mystis Solutions bases its technology consulting practice on the premise that every technology choice has a measurable impact on a firm's bottom line. Mystis Solutions starts every technology engagement with a full understanding of the client's core business and the impacts that current technologies have on key financial metrics. This is correlated with operational metrics that the client expects to improve, and then rolled into a requirements package that can be used directly for purchasing equipment, requesting proposals, and defining an implementation project. The right technology choice is the one that makes our clients the most money in their core businesses.

INFRASTRUCTURE DOCUMENTATION AND TRAINING Mystis Solutions consultants can design and write post implementation documentation for both new and existing telecommunications networks, whether they are small enterprise systems in a single location or national deployments of complex, multi-vendor solutions. Mystis Solutions can design training for an entire employee organization or a single department looking to use technology to improve their financial and operational results. This service results in reduced ongoing operational costs and improves restoration time in times of service crisis, as well as improves the operational efficiency of the entire organization.

TECHNOLOGY EVALUATION Mystis Solutions experts will provide an unbiased review of technology being considered for deployment or for use in new products or services. Our evaluation service can be used for RFP creation, examination of opinions and supporting decision criteria, or to simply evaluate an existing or proposed network or product. In all cases, Mystis Solutions findings and recommendations will be rooted on financial and operational metrics of the client's core business.

TECHNOLOGY PLANNING Mystis Solutions consultants have unusual depth in providing technology planning to expand or augment a network, from small business solutions to fully licensed telecommunications networks with performance mandates. Mystis Solutions resources understand all aspects of the telecommunications industry, from regulatory to financial reporting, and will provide concise recommendations consistent with the client's environment and constraints. Mystis Solutions will also provide recommendations and planning for the migration of services from one network to another (e.g. acquisition or divesture), or the evolution of networks from one technology to another. As usual, Mystis Solutions ties all of its recommendations to financial and operational metrics of our client's core businesses.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND OUTSOURCED OPERATIONS Mystis Solutions can provide project management resources for implementation of any of our recommendations and proposed projects. Whether final plans call for removal of old gear, implementation of a new service, or movement of a data center, we have a strong team of project management professionals ready to deliver results. If your current staff is sized for network operations but not for implementation, Mystis Solutions can provide resources without permanent additions to your staff.
