Brett Passmore’s Experience

Owner/ Senior Consultant

Enstep Technology Solutions

(Computer Networking industry)

November 2001 — Present (8 years 1 month)

We have a proven track record to deploying and supporting business solutions that have brought tremendous value to our customers. Our goals are to understand how you do business, where your technology plan is not working, provide vision, guidance, and leadership, and then provide the means to fulfill those plans.

Our business model requires that we strive to theoretically operate as your CIO, CTO, IT Director, Web Services Coordinator, Solutions Architect, Server Administrator, Routing and Switching Engineer, and your Desktop Support personnel. You only use what you need, thereby cutting your costs to the bare minimal necessity. You get top-flight talent, and only pay for what benefits your organization.

If you need only one or two of the above roles, we can certainly still accommodate you. You do not need to commit to every support position to benefit from the Enstep business model. Our tag line is “We Make IT Work. Better.” No matter your requirements or needs, we are prepared to assist you.

What sets Enstep apart? The first differentiator is our commitment to your company’s best interest. How do we do this? By providing the peace of mind through:

• Investigation
• Communication
• Documentation
• Risk Mitigation

Our set of guiding principles provides you with extraordinary service and allows you to work on your core business goals, not your technology needs.

Our next differentiator is our D4 solutions philosophy:

• Discover
• Design
• Deploy
• Document

This is our frame work that enables us to create and follow “best-practices” for our processes. We understand that every customer is different, but several solutions are similar, and by utilizing common methodologies, we are able to accomplish the same project as the next professional services firm, but do it in a much faster and more consistent manner. This offers our customers a much better value for our services.
