Client

Public housing authorities in the US often grapple with complex IT infrastructure management challenges. They must support extensive networks across multiple locations, ensure seamless service for a large number of users, and maintain high operational efficiency while transitioning to modern, cost-effective solutions that cater to both on-premises and cloud-based environments. Our client, one of the largest public housing authorities in Los Angeles (California), was facing similar challenges.

Challenge

The client faced significant challenges in managing their extensive IT infrastructure, including 18 databases, 445TB of data, 180+ network devices, 1450+ end-user devices, 100+ critical and standard apps, and more than 800 users spread across 18+ site locations, 45+ physical servers, 150+ virtual servers, and a vast array of network devices, applications, and end-user devices. Their primary objectives were to ensure continuous support for IT operational and transformational goals, outsource all IT services, including on-premises and cloud infrastructure, and support a hybrid work environment across multiple locations for over 800 users.
Their challenges included:
1

Extensive IT infrastructure spread across 18+ site locations and multiple servers.

2

Difficulty supporting 800 users supported across these locations.

3

Lack of continuing support of IT operational and transformational objectives.

4

Lack of IT outsourcing of on-premises and cloud infrastructure.

5

Lack of a hybrid environment to support onsite and telework.

Solution

To address these challenges, Bahwan CyberTek devised a strategic solution for the client, centered around a fit-for-purpose framework that included a management center, command center, and development center. This multi-faceted approach was designed to provide comprehensive IT services across various functions. The solution ensured a seamless service design and transition, enhanced the service desk with unified endpoint management, and provided backup services vital for the client's extensive hybrid environment. Application and enterprise compute management were fortified with comprehensive maintenance and robust operations. Network management was secured with vigilant monitoring, VPN, and advanced information security measures. The implementation featured a unified tracking tool for continuous progress monitoring, a smooth transition via the Epiance Solution, and an upgrade to Solarwinds for IT service management. Additionally, Bahwan CyberTek integrated cutting-edge tools like SmarterD for asset management, DropThought for feedback, and automated process discovery, complemented by network and system enhancements for VDI and VPN.
