Streamlining how your business operates is quite easily one of the best tools you can use to both optimise your company’s productivity and as such increase your profits, but one place where most companies fail to think about the importance of streamlining is with their IT – and not necessarily when it comes to the system itself…

How many times have you seen this situation for example?

James – now James is actually a member of your sales team, but James is the most ‘techie’ person you have so he deals with most of the IT issues that he can, including patching in phones or computers for your new members of staff and / or if people move around the office.
Now if it takes James 25 minutes to trace where a cable goes from and to in your server cabinet, or if he makes a mistake when he’s moving cables around, not only does this mean downtime but it also takes James away from doing what he does best – selling your product or services.
This is a situation we see time and time again here at Blue Spot. Surprisingly, one of the best solutions is actually one of the easiest, a tidy network cab. Take a look at this:

It’s easy to see how it can take someone much longer to trace a cable or make changes to the network in the first picture, this simple solution is one of the most effective ways of streamlining the amount of time it takes to make changes to your networks wiring. Now James can spend more time making you money, and less time scratching his head trying to find where that pesky blue cable goes.
