IT Consulting and Integration Services
From one generation to the next, we’ll help you plan, integrate, and outsource your technology for an efficient, profitable business.
Chances are your company faces a number of serious challenges surrounding
your information technology. Increasing volumes of valuable data that must be
managed and leveraged. The ever-growing threat of network attacks. Budget cuts
demanding greater IT efficiencies and more predictable costs. Legacy systems
that must be upgraded at the same time new systems are required for new
products and services.
Schneider Electric IT Consulting and Integration Services has the expertise,
infrastructure, and flexibility to be your all-in-one partner across the whole IT life
cycle — helping you meet these challenges and achieve your business goals.
We don’t sell technology. Instead, we provide a comprehensive, vendor-neutral
portfolio of services to add value to your enterprise and to make your company
more profitable both in the short run and the long term.
Schneider Electric’s long history as Spain’s technology leader has given us an
especially deep understanding of the financial, telco, public administration, and
health care sectors. Through a variety of significant client engagements, we have
also developed considerable expertise in the energy, agriculture, transportation,
and retail industries.
Our service offerings span the range of capabilities needed to guide and support
your business and information technology systems and processes — from initial
planning through day-to-day operations. Unlike IT firms that focus only on hardware
or software, we offer more comprehensive, big picture solutions that encompass all
aspects of your business — your processes, technology, people, and assets.

Outsourcing
As businesses worldwide seek to lower costs and improve operational efficiency, more companies are outsourcing their IT to an outside provider and taking advantage of economies of scale. By paying per use or on demand, your company can avoid purchasing IT as a capital expense, and can transform it into a predictable operating expense.
Schneider Electric IT Consulting and Integration Services can guide you in outsourcing your IT systems and/or your backup sites to Schneider Electric’s infrastructure, allowing you to reduce costs and focus time, energy, and resources on your core business.
As a technology leader with a robust infrastructure, Schneider Electric offers a comprehensive suite of services and resources to help your company get the
most from its outsourcing strategy:
• Businessprocessoutsourcing: We can help your company optimise
your business operating costs by managing the technologies behind your
critical business growth and development processes.
• Applicationsoutsourcing: Virtualisation of hardware and software
resources is one of today’s hottest IT trends. Schneider Electric provides
such virtualisation options as service-oriented architecture (SOA), software
as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), infrastructure as a
service (IaaS) and cloud computing. According to industry experts, cloud
computing will be a significant paradigm shift in IT over the next 10 years. It
enables companies to reduce risk, increase productivity, avoid the costs of
software licenses, improve flexibility and scalability, and diversify information
across a network of data centres. Schneider Electric guarantees zero failure
on applications used in your daily business operations.
