Import, export & procurement

Technical procurement: hardware, servers, network technology and equipment

We help organisations buy technology that fits their actual need: we draft technical specifications for hardware, servers, network technology and equipment, compare offers on technical and commercial grounds, and coordinate delivery, acceptance and installation. This combines our infrastructure expertise with commercial support.

What we offer

Work starts from usage, not from a catalogue: number of users, systems to run, availability and backup requirements, and expected growth. On that basis we specify servers, storage, network equipment, end-user devices, printers and more, separating what is essential from what is optional.

We compare offers on technical compatibility, warranty, support, spare-part availability and accompanying software licences, alongside price and lead time. After selection we coordinate delivery, acceptance and initial checks; our technical team can handle installation and configuration as part of our infrastructure services.

Some technologies may be subject to export controls, sanctions or licensing depending on origin, destination and use. We assume no answer in advance; current requirements are checked case by case with qualified professionals and with suppliers before any commitment.

Who it is for

Hospitals and public institutionsNeed servers, networks and devices compatible with their systems and operating requirements.
Companies equipping new premisesWant complete technical equipment from the network to office devices.
Organisations upgrading infrastructureWant to replace old equipment without buying what does not fit their systems.

Problems we address

Buying equipment specified above or below the actual need.
Equipment incompatible with existing systems or infrastructure.
Offers hard to compare due to different models, warranties and licences.
No plan for support and spare parts after delivery.
Unclear potential restrictions on certain technologies before ordering.

Tasks and deliverables

Specification document: Technical specifications for hardware, servers and network equipment, ready to send to suppliers or use in a tender.
Technical and commercial comparison: A table comparing models, compatibility, warranty, support, licences, price and lead time.
Acceptance checklist: A checklist to match delivered equipment against the order: models, serial numbers, accessories and licences.
Installation and configuration plan: A plan for installing, configuring and networking the equipment, carried out by our team or a provider you choose.
Asset and warranty register: A register of delivered equipment, warranty dates and support contacts.

Practical example

Illustrative scenario

Equipping a small server room for a medical facility

A medical facility wants to run an administrative system on premises and needs servers, storage and network equipment.

Inventory current systems, user numbers and backup requirements.
Specify servers, storage and network.
Compare three offers and check potential restrictions with professionals.
Receive and check equipment against the checklist.
Install, configure and hand over the asset register.

Illustrative scenario to explain the way of working, not a client reference.

How we work together

Needs analysis
We understand usage, systems and current infrastructure.
Specification
We prepare clear specifications and approve them with you.
Offers and comparison
We gather offers and compare them technically and commercially.
Delivery and acceptance
We coordinate delivery and check equipment on arrival.
Installation and documentation
We install and configure where agreed and hand over documentation.

Intended results

Equipment suited to actual use and compatible with systems.
A documented purchasing decision based on a clear comparison.
A clear register of assets, warranties and support contacts.

What we need from you

Description of current systems and infrastructure.
User numbers, availability and growth requirements.
Budget and any internal purchasing rules.
Approval of specifications and the final decision.
A site ready for installation (power, cooling, space).

Basis for cost and timeline

Cost depends on project size, number of devices, infrastructure complexity and whether installation and configuration are in scope. Advisory and coordination fees are set as a fixed scope or in phases; equipment costs are agreed transparently with the supplier. Shipping, clearance and official fees are separate.

Frequently asked questions

Do you sell the equipment yourselves?

We focus on specification, comparison and coordination; purchasing is done from suitable suppliers, and the contracting model is agreed per project.

Can the specifications be used in a tender?

Yes, they can be prepared in a format suited to your purchasing procedures.

What about export controls on certain technologies?

They are checked case by case with qualified professionals and suppliers before ordering; we assume no outcome in advance.

Do you provide support after installation?

Yes, through our support and training services, alongside the manufacturer's warranty.
