To be able to truly understand your customer, and deliver reliable results, you have to be aware of what challenges and opportunities they face. Whether it´s consolidation or transforming large IT-environments, shortening time-to-market by streamlining business and operational processes or maximising productivity at the right cost for R&D companies, we have the experience.
Welcome to ELITS – another kind of understanding.
A knowledge base centered around your challenges.
In this section of our story we try to pinpoint industry-specific IT challenges that can be encountered while running a successful business.

Welcome to ELITS – another kind of IT.
Over 10 years of experience, from your business.
Large and global environments
Think globally, with local usability.
The complexity of large IT-infrastructures is not to be taken lightly. We know, because we have been working with them for ten years.
After many years of experience working with global IT environments, both in operations and on project basis, we understand the complex nature of the mission. Whether the challenges are related to legislative changes, security issues or IT governance we have proven that it is possible to run both operations and projects that deliver global flexibility and local usability.
As CTO in a global company you often face challenges in both operations and projects that result in profound changes to the existing infrastructure. From consolidation/transformation to efficiency audits and cost reduction, the changes and improvements that need to be implemented on a global scale can sometimes seem daunting. It is at this point you need a partner that doesn’t get caught up in internal governance, a partner that can create and deliver according to a central roadmap regardless of how many sites or operational concerns that exist, a partner that can be efficient without massive overhead.
A proven track-record
We have a proven track-record of IT-operations and project management for several global companies. With our unique pool of resources that all share great insight in complex infrastructures, process governance and global challenges, you get a partner that is firmly rooted in reality but that dares to aim high. What we promise to deliver is a higher success rate on projects, and from an operations perspective, greater efficiency at a lower cost.
So, what´s the secret?
How are we that different from other IT companies? Well, as we have mentioned, we have extensive global experience, and our employees have unique competence, but the secret lies in understanding the need for scalability. With our operations and project know-how you get a partner who understands the workings of global IT, who can also transform that into local usability. We create flexibility at a local level, and combine that with a global methodology, leading to higher business efficiency.

High Availability Environments
What you need, when you need it, always.
What if we told you that 20% of data center outages are due to human error? You would be misled, it´s actually much higher.
When we say 20%, that correlates to the number of incidents that can be directly contributed to human error. It does not take in to account intended tampering, poorly implemented disaster recovery systems that fail to initialize or lack of system knowledge i.e. UPS:s. Human error is actually the number one cause of outages.
IT departments are by nature risk adverse, and they should be to some extent. Plan for the worst, hope for the best. But when it comes to operations most disruptions or loss of availability can be avoided if you adopt a proactive operational culture.
Our ambition is to proactively manage the lifecycle of system and environments and minimize the adverse impact of incidents and problems. The key to this is actively preventing the recurrence of incidents, by finding and addressing their root causes and communicating known errors.
We have worked with several global companies to implement and operate their high availability environments. This has given us a unique competence and ability to work pro-actively within operations leading to higher efficiency and radical improvements in availability.
You can trust us to handle your most critical environments. What you need, when you need it, always.

R&D Efficiency
Higher productivity, at the right cost.
Our ambitions are to bring research & development IT much closer to the business, and to achieve higher efficiency regarding both IT independence and dynamic use of resources.
R&D driven businesses live in a world of constant change coupled with high complexity. This requires an IT infrastructure and operations with agile ways of working combined with high automation and efficiency.
We have years of experience working with global R&D companies. We understand that there is a need to have the technology and resources in place that can quickly put new business requirements into production, while also supporting future needs.
We push the boundaries and provide you with a truly dynamic IT that puts resources in the hands of those who actually use them. With our know-how we can help you cut provisioning and lead-times, lower costs, and develop an IT that is truly aligned with your development needs. Because we understand that there is no static mode within R&D, it is always in a state of constant change.

High Security Environments
Agility in high security environments.
We understand that there are conflicting interest in running a high security environment. How do prioritise between the need for flexibility, availability and security?
In high security environments there are several stake-holders. On the one hand you have your IT-operation; they just want to be able to take ownership.
Then you have the business side; they just want to have great usability and access. Then you have the security department; they just want to encrypt everything and pull out the network cable. So how do you make everyone feel content?
We at ELITS are not security experts, but we have many years of experience and knowledge of operations and design of high security environments. This makes us experts at implementing, constructing and running high security IT-environments that gives you better control, traceability and availability. In essence we create and operate an agile high security environment without having to compromise on any department specific requirements.

Mergers & Acquisitions IT
The true value of IT-integration in Mergers & Acquisitions.
If you don´t treat IT as a business opportunity, during the assessment phase of a merger or acquisition, you risk losing momentum further down the road.
We have many years of experience helping global businesses assess the IT infrastructure in relation to mergers or acquisitions.
In this process, we have formulated a unique principle on how to achieve the highest efficiency in regards to integration of two or more IT-environments. And the truth is, sometimes one plus one actually does equal innovation. Since we understand both business and technology, we can foresee what effects the planned consolidation or transformation will have before the decision is made and determine what benefits the business in the long run.
A GAP analysis and an IT assessment are the basis for any successful M&A, on top of that, we add a breakdown of ways of working, develop a roadmap for consolidation, resulting in a higher business efficiency and greater quality in the end result. Together we solve a business issue, not just an IT related cost.

Internet of Things (IoT)
We are ready, is your business?
Our world is getting more and more complex and connected. It is not farfetched to assume that more and more companies will have to add application development and data storage in their business strategy.
The global industry sector will have to go through a fundamental structural change as Internet of Things is here to stay. Everything around is getting more digitised, which in turn establishes networks between machines, people and the internet. This paradigm shift creates entirely new ecosystems with potential for higher productivity, innovation and efficiency.
As this development is rushing forward, many companies are faced with IT-challenges that they never have encountered before. With higher demand on availability, usability and security it becomes crucial to find an IT-solution and partner where shortening time-to-market, customer needs and innovation are walking hand in hand.
We have the know-how and resources to truly give you an advantage in this new IoT landscape. With our agile ways of working and sophisticated technology solutions you will find a partner that truly understand and can deliver on your needs.
Together we become pioneers, push the boundaries and shape the future.

Software as a Service (SaaS)
SaaS is all about scalability, agility and availability.
Cloud based distribution of software and applications delivers several advantages. The obvious ones are of-course agility, shorter time-to-market, scalability combined with high elasticity and innovation.
But on top of that you can also get additional financial benefits in reduced IT-support costs, licensing, hardware outsourcing and maintenance. But to truly leverage all these upsides you need a trusted partner that can deliver a number of factors.
We at ELITS are experts at understanding the needs of our SaaS clients, and have come to realise that they key issue is to deliver on three key aspects. Scalability; the need to quickly resize the platform for future usage, Agility; to be able to move quickly from the drawing board to deployment requires a governance and a partner that shift the resources from operational IT to the frontline, meaning developers, Availability; your customers expect the service to be available at an instant on any device, so your partner must first and last meet those expectations.
We at ELITS have many years of experience working SaaS companies, and have secured several global contracts, because we have solved all of the challenges that they face.
