Consulting Built Around Real Business Needs
Business planning and project definition: clarify objectives, users, current workflows, system dependencies, investment priorities, and phased outcomes for new initiatives, modernisation, or multi-site rollout.AI and business automation: identify where agents, Dify, enterprise knowledge systems, and RAG can create value; use FDE discovery to define data, permissions, integration, and governance requirements; and plan OPC agent workspaces where appropriate.Enterprise applications and collaboration: assess functional fit, identity, migration, permissions, integration, and operating processes for Microsoft 365, Odoo, Nextcloud, osTicket, and related platforms.Infrastructure and digital workplace: plan networks and security, servers and storage, VMware vCenter/ESXi, Ruijie virtualisation and cloud desktops, new-office IT, wireless coverage, and meeting environments.Security, observability, and continuity: review identity and access, endpoint governance, Fortinet security, Veeam backup and recovery, Zabbix monitoring, Graylog analytics, and recovery validation.Product selection and operational delivery: evaluate Dell, Lenovo, HP, Apple, KTC, Quest, and other platforms in context, while planning procurement, deployment, training, acceptance, documentation, and long-term support.
How the Engagement Works
Business and current-state discovery: users, workflows, data sources, dependencies, assets, and pain points.
Objectives and boundaries: scope, priorities, budget, timeline, compliance needs, and measurable acceptance criteria.
Target architecture: applications, data, AI, infrastructure, security, and operations designed as one system rather than isolated purchases.
Selection and delivery roadmap: alternatives, milestones, migration windows, tests, rollback plans, and ownership.
Operating model: monitoring, backup, access, change control, knowledge transfer, and continuous improvement.
Consulting Deliverables
Business requirements, current-state findings, and risk register.Target architecture, technical roadmap, and integration map.Product or platform recommendations with a phased budget framework.Delivery plan, migration and rollback approach, testing, and acceptance criteria.Security, backup, monitoring, operations, and knowledge-transfer recommendations.
Designed to Be Delivered and Operated
Recommendations are based on business value, reliability, security, maintainability, and total cost, without adding complexity simply to increase product scope. Consulting can stand alone or continue into implementation, procurement, deployment, migration testing, training, handover, and managed operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we start before selecting a product?
Yes. We begin with the business outcome and constraints, then decide whether AI, an application platform, infrastructure, a product solution, or a combined approach is appropriate.
Must Lanever implement the recommendation?
No. The consulting deliverables can stand alone. If required, we can continue with deployment, migration, testing, training, and managed support.
Can you assess a complex existing environment?
Yes. Shanghai and nearby projects can include on-site discovery; other locations can be assessed through structured interviews, documentation, and remote system reviews.
