Spring Lake Consulting  www.springlakeconsulting.com
 

Founded in 1998, Spring Lake Consulting is a boutique Information Technology consulting firm specializing in technology solutions for investment banks, hedge funds and insurance companies. We provide right-sized solutions for all of our customer’s technology needs including: server and desktop implementation and support (both Windows and Unix/Linux), network architecture and maintenance, storage solutions (SAN and NAS), startup and relocation services, telecommunications, business continuity planning, disaster recovery, virtualization, database architecture and maintenance, remote access solutions, datacenter management and custom software development.

The company was founded on the premise that financial services companies don't want to be in the business of technology. We understand that your customers and investors are paying for your services to manage money, structure deals, or provide an array of services around investing. Technology is a critical component of providing those services, however, it is a distraction to have to maintain the staff, stay current on new technologies and best practices and continue to engineer new solutions while maintaining maximum uptime of the existing infrastructure. These details are better left to an organization whose primary focus is to provide these services in a way that enhances your business but, more importantly, removes the challenges of effectively managing IT infrastructure.

We want to eliminate the distraction that technology causes in most organizations and let management get back to the core of its operations. Spring Lake Consulting recognizes that any company's ability to be “best of breed” in the industry is tightly wound to its technology and we address this by not only making sure that your standard infrastructure is robust and resilient, but also by working with some of the newest technologies that are providing true competitive advantages to our customers.
