Virtual Workforce

The workforce is becoming more and more transparent.  Whether your employees initiate or respond to sales/support calls, the boundaries of the workplace have become blurred.  The new generation of knowledge workers don’t just expect to work remotely, they demand it along with connectivity from a wide range of network capable end-point devices.  Find out how we can assist you in planning, provisioning or management of your virtual team.  Our team will work with your management team to:  identify which roles are most critical and least critical in driving results; predict and analyze the implications on your internal workforce; and determine what capabilities are absolutely essential and what investments are necessary.

Virtual Office Design – Would you consult your automobile mechanic for advice on dental issues?  Probably not; so why would you trust the advice of consultants who haven’t lived, breathed and experienced the challenges and benefits of working as a virtual resource.  At Jupiter-Gemini we have years of experience in the area of virtual office and mobile computing.  Whether you’re trying to determine how to deliver applications such as VoIP to virtual workers or monitor productivity, the pendulum is certainly swinging in a direction away from the brick and mortar workplace to the virtual organizational entity.  Let Jupiter-Gemini assist you in exploring the options of how you can take advantage of the virtual workforce without compromising your business strategy.

Implementation & Provisioning – Things were nice and simple when your IT staff dropped a new PC on the network in an office or cubical and the new employee showed up and was up and running on the LAN immediately.  Things have changed since those “good ole days” and the new employee is driving IT departments to stretch their boundaries with respect to where, when and how they connect to your network resources.  Implementing a strategy to allow maximum flexibility to the user community while controlling the proliferation of new network-capable devices is no small challenge.  Jupiter-Gemini can assist you in building an implementation strategy along with automating the provisioning process to insure only authorized personnel and devices gain access to your valuable company data and computing assets.

Security – Virtual workers present a host of security issues for corporate networks.  A remote access security policy is the starting point in maintaining controls on who accesses what resources over the various connection options available.  A host of tools are available in this discipline and our experienced security engineers will work with your IT and management team to insure your data is not compromised by the numerous exploits that can present a clear and present danger to your organizational assets.

IT Outsourcing – Let’s just face it; your core business is not information technology.  Whether you like it or not, technology is driving business as much as business is driving technology.  Hiring, training and retaining an IT staff can be a cumbersome and expensive proposition.  Why not look at a cost/benefit analysis of hiring a trusted advisor to manage your IT environment while you focus on running your business.  Jupiter-Gemini can provide a wide range of flexible outsourcing solutions tailored to your specific needs.  Let our experienced professionals assist you in identifying opportunities for cost reduction, higher service levels and identification of inefficient processes that can be streamlined through re-engineering or automation.  Let Jupiter-Gemini extend your help desk from the person who can respond to a PC crash to an organization who can change the way you conduct business by understanding YOUR business.  If you’re in the process of evaluating your options when it comes to in-house or outsourced IT, we can also assist you in assessing your organizational requirements, selecting a qualified vender, and negotiating a contract with favorable terms and conditions.
