Expertise and objectivity

Make cost-effective technology decisions with confidence. Our combined strengths in education and technology will help you make smart investments and sound policy. We serve as your partner, providing unbiased direction to help you achieve your goals.

Technology purchasing recommendations

We provide knowledge and insight so you can make informed choices when purchasing hardware, software, or third-party services. This includes advocating on your behalf with vendors and ensuring their solutions meet your requirements. We have helped clients reach decisions on everything from district-wide calendaring software to data-center planning and design.

Security auditing and analysis

Concerns about security and privacy are well founded but often lead to unworkable solutions that impede valuable technologies and resources. We evaluate your existing technology policies and procedures, and recommend ways to strengthen security, mitigate risks, and balance them with your instructional needs.
