Frequently Asked Questions

How do you track equipment obsolescence?

Through maintained asset registers that record device age, manufacturer support status, firmware version and operational condition. We cross reference this with manufacturer end of life announcements.

Can you upgrade systems in phases?

Yes. We design phased upgrade programmes that manage budget, minimise disruption and maintain system functionality during the transition.

What happens to old equipment when systems are upgraded?

Equipment is decommissioned with secure handling of recording media, credentials and configuration data. Physical equipment is assessed for reuse or disposed of through approved channels.
