The Professional Contractors Group (PCG)

PCG are a not-for-profit trade body aiming to be the voice of freelancers, working with Government and industry to protect and promote freelancing and freelancers, on a local, national and European level.

Formed in 1999, PCG has seen rapid growth in size and came to see that the technology platforms used to support the business were wide ranging, and should be brought together to fit with the PCG's strategy for future growth.

Wiremat provides the picture...

Wiremat's Business Analysts applied their expertise to building a picture of how the business operated, mapping how each department interacted with each other and with the computer systems in use.

Identifying the risks the business was potentially exposed to, and analysing the business' processes, our consultants were able to provide PCG with the required information tools to help achieve their goal of a centralised, manageable technology infrastructure relevant to their future.

...and advises on solutions

One key aspect of the PCG's requirement was to look at the risk to their membership services potentially present in their use of managed servers for on-line services.

Our consultants looked at the risk to the business of their current solutons and looked again at the market for managed server solutions, analysing potential solutons providers on the basis of many critical factors over and above financial cost of services offered.
