Core-competencies - Advanced Microsoft Infrastructure

Microsoft Dynamics and Charteris - the true specialists

In the .NET world the deployment of a stable, resilient and above all manageable infrastructure is an essential first step to meeting the challenges of lowering cost of ownership, improving quality of service and increasing business agility.

Charteris’ track record of implementing Microsoft infrastructures for enterprise customers is among the best in the world. Our depth of experience is evidenced both by our accreditation as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Enterprise Systems and Network Infrastructure Solutions, and our regular inclusion in global Microsoft early adopter programs. It is also notable that Microsoft use us to help solve problems that have defeated others.

We have particular experience of designing, planning and deploying the following Microsoft technologies:

  • Windows Server NT, 2000, 2003
  • Active Directory
  • Virtual Server 2005
  • Internet Information Server 5.0, 6.0
  • ISA Server 2000, 2004
  • Exchange 5.x, 2000, 2003
  • Windows NT Professional, 2000 Professional, XP
  • Systems Management Server 1.x, 2.0, 2003
  • SUS/WUS
  • MACS
  • Microsoft Operations Manager 2000, 2005
  • Application Centre
  • BizTalk
  • SQL Server 6.5, 7.0, 2000, 2005
  • SharePoint Portal Server 2001, 2004

Charteris can take full lifecycle responsibility for delivering your infrastructure project or engage to take a key technical or management role in your project team. We can use your own corporate standards or we can deploy the Charteris developed Quality and Delivery Frameworks.

However, Charteris recognises that simply migrating to the latest version of some technology is no longer enough and whilst vital, both technology and project expertise are only part of the solution. An understanding of best practice architecture, design and most of all, operational process, is essential if the benefits sought from any investment in infrastructure are to be realised.

To ensure our customers meet these challenges, the constantly evolving output from a range of Microsoft and industry programmes – including the Microsoft Operations Framework, Microsoft Solutions for Management, Dynamic Systems Initiative and ITIL – inform all aspects of our project engagements.
