Experts in Hardware Procurement

We’re industry experts when it comes to procuring hardware for your business. Tasking us with fulfilling your hardware and licensing needs instead of taking the process on yourself can help you:

Instead of spending hours or days researching solutions we already understand, you can rely on our expertise to outline the best hardware and licensing options for your business.

We have long-lasting relationships with trusted partners, which allows us to get you the highest quality products at better prices. We also save you money upfront by helping you avoid hardware and licensing agreements that don’t properly align with your business’s scope.

Even after doing thorough research, it’s likely the solutions you find won’t be tailored to your specific industry requirements. We have decades of experience in hardware procurement for small to mid-size businesses in healthcare, construction, law, and more, and with that expertise, we provide you with options that best align with your unique needs and regulatory compliance standards.

You don’t want to make an investment in hardware or licensing only to outgrow it as your company expands. We help you achieve scalability from the start by recommending equipment and solutions that match your projections for the future.

How it works

Our Licensing & Procurement Process

1. Let’s Talk

We meet with you to discuss your business needs and goals, including any frustrations you’ve felt with past or current hardware and/or licensing. We also evaluate specific problems you need to solve, challenges you want to overcome and plans for the future business growth.

2. Sit Back and Relax.

You sit back and relax while we expertly evaluate potential solutions, using our industry knowledge and partnerships.

3. See a Demo and Hear from Experts

For many of the products we recommend, seeing a demo and talking directly to our partners is the best way for you to see their full potential and understand how their applications will function in your business.

4. Let us Negotiate

We negotiate licensing and pricing on your behalf to ensure you get the right products for the best price.

5. Give the OK

You evaluate our recommendations and approve one or more hardware procurement or licensing solutions.

6. Await Your Delivery

We ensure your hardware is delivered to your door, pre-configured and ready for immediate setup.

7. Setup

Whether you need assistance getting everything set up properly or want us to do it all, we’re there for you. From rolling out new machines to setting up dashboards, our experts will ensure your equipment is set up and functioning properly from the start.

8. Training

We want you to maximize your new hardware and licensed products. All too often we see companies that don’t tap in to the power of what they have, so we ensure you are set up for maximum utilization by providing post-delivery training to your IT staff and/or your employees.

Your Hardware Procurement & Licensing Partner

Your hardware should be a long-lasting component of your office or workspace, so choosing equipment is a significant investment. Who better to help you with such an important decision than a company with years of experience in successfully providing businesses with reliable hardware?

At AIS, we help you evaluate your existing equipment, the type of equipment best suited to your needs, the brands that are most reliable, the hardware that will give you the best ROI, and the equipment that will give you room for future growth—all at a competitive price.

High-Quality Hardware & Licensing Guaranteed

We partner with trusted vendors who provide the highest quality hardware and service-level agreements on the market today. Our long-standing relationships with the best manufacturers in the industry help us get you top-of-the-line products at outstanding prices.

Here are just some of our preferred partners, but we can help with just about any IT hardware procurement and a variety of licensing:

What is included

  • Initial consultation to establish business needs and constraints
  • Solution evaluation across servers, security appliances, storage, wireless, switching, and end-user devices
  • Product demonstrations with vendor partners
  • Evaluation against total ownership cost, features, warranty, customization, licensing, configuration and lifecycle
  • Pricing and licensing negotiation on your behalf
  • Access to preferred partners: Dell, HP, Cisco, Lenovo, Extreme, Synology, Fortinet, VMware, Red Hat, Adobe, Microsoft
  • Pre-configured hardware delivery
  • Setup and installation support
  • End-user training on new equipment
  • Ongoing hardware lifecycle management as part of managed services

Who this fits

Multi-site organizations standardizing equipment across locations, where the goal is one specification rolled out repeatedly rather than a different vendor and configuration at every site. Utilities and energy organizations bringing substations, treatment facilities and field crews onto corporate networks and needing switching, wireless and security appliances specified correctly the first time.

Healthcare and life sciences organizations where equipment has to meet requirements that go beyond price. And any organization coming up on a refresh cycle with no internal capacity to run a proper evaluation, or whose licensing spend has grown without anyone able to explain why.
