How the engagement runs
- Discovery call 30 min · free
Your estate, workload and constraints — rack count, power profile, compliance scope. You leave with a clear next step.
- Scoped proposal within a week
A priced, fixed-scope proposal with deliverables, acceptance criteria and the SLA we will sign up to.
- Rehearsal where it de-risks
GPU bring-up, cooling or fabric changes rehearsed in a test environment before they touch your floor — on our own integration lab once it is funded.
- Delivery + run project → retainer
Delivered on your or your operator's floor, then optionally run under a managed retainer with NetPulse and Praman attached.
