Our Approach

Data protection has become a critical yet increasingly complex area of IT requiring many different skill sets for it to be delivered effectively. Clients are more often looking to specialist service providers to deliver the breadth of knowledge, expertise and coverage to support their backup & recovery environment. With static & transactional data being a vital business, the service provider must also demonstrate best practice operational capabilities to ensure effective & efficient management. 4sl have significant experience in the design, delivery & management of enterprise infrastructure solutions & have developed a number of managed service solutions for backup & recovery environments As a result we recognise that the desired solution is rarely a ‘one size fits all’ offering; for example some clients want to retain control of the environment but want access to skills, operational information, process maturity & other services either as an alternative to or prior to considering a full outsourcing arrangement.
