Many infrastructure consulting firms have concentrated solely on hardware solutions. Accucom Consulting has always developed and designed solutions from the application layer where the client spends the majority of their computing day. By designing networks and software solutions from the application layer we have been able to leverage our hardware and software vendor partnerships to the benefit our clients. The Internet has evened the consumer playing field for purchasing computers and peripherals, yet we have large corporations and organizations that test prices on a daily basis. Our 15 years of industry relationships have allowed Accucom Consulting optimal purchasing power. This purchasing strength has provided us with strong technical associations with vendors and distributors that not only present hardware and software at discounted prices but also assist with technical recommendations and best practices.
