Welcome

Mainframe Infrastructure Management, in today’s IT environment of an

organizationdemands highmaturity in terms of cost-effectiveness.

Mainframe environments are expectednot only to be maintained with

cost-effective systems but also to exhibit the overall value that they

bring to the organization in terms of short and long-term structure and

services.

Should outsourcing Mainframe Data Center Management be an option

that can satisfy the need of bringing cost-effective system in place? This

complex decision of Mainframe outsourcingrequires IT departments to

takeinto consideration numerous variables. Working with right

outsourcing partner helps companies evaluate the nature and expected

quality of the service requirement; recognizeavailable options and, if

outsourcing makes sense, how best to go about it.

Is your MainframeGenerating Value?

· Lower TCOMainframe Economies of Scale can be achieved via vendor distribution

where Maintec’s clients typically save 30-40% on their Mainframe

operating costs, when they outsource. Vendor distributionis nothing but

spreading over hardware, software, personnel, power, infrastructure,

and disaster recovery costs over multiple customers.

Outsourcing Does Help your Mainframe Environment Generate Value. How?

· Pay for what you useEnterprises have the advantage of turning their fixed cost into a variable

cost by paying for mainframe processing just like they paytheir monthly

utility bills. Through Mainframe outsourcing, our clients enjoy

pay-per-use advantage - Pay only for what you need and avoid upfront

capital expenditures.

· Skilled Mainframe ResourcesGetting direct access to highly skilled remote staff through email,

Skype, VOIP or video conferencinghelp freeing up our customer

organizations from overhead tensions of hiring, training and recruiting

resources for critical Mainframe services.

· Relocation/MovingIt is always better and much cheaper to outsource for companies that are

moving their facilities instead of investing in building a new data center.

· Moving off the MainframeCompanies that are moving off the mainframe to another platform can

have their staff focus on the new application(s)/platform(s) rather than

keeping the “old stuff” running each day.

· Data back-upCompanies keep business critical data at various locations as back-up as

a Disaster recovery solution.
