This is John.
John Smith.
John is a passionate Head of IT and actually a really laid back guy. Most days he’s not just on top of everything, but has a smile on his face, too. He’s popular among his colleagues and even Thomas and Josh don’t have anything bad to say about their boss.
John has been Head of IT in his company for over seven years. He’s been looking after the technical side of things since the founding. At that time, IT was pretty simple—there were less than 20 employees in the whole company. Together with his boss at the time, he single-handedly constructed the entire IT infrastructure in just a few months. John is still proud of what he was able to achieve back then with just a lot of coffee and creative drive. His bosses still seem very pleased with it. In his heart of hearts, though, John knows that a lot of it has become outdated.

He would do things differently if he had the chance. Today, many processes could be performed more efficiently with help of the Cloud – just there’s no time. In the last 10 years, the company has grown hugely – and it shows no signs of slowing down. In logistics, in operations, and in admin, new employees are being hired all the time. John knows his team has to create new user accounts on an almost-daily basis.
They were one of the first to employ “green logistics” and drastically reduce CO2 emissions from transport. The business model is well-received on the market and management is looking for the next challenge – a branch in southern Germany.

Over the last few years, John’s department hasn’t grown in the same way the other departments have: The three of them now alone have to handle the IT needs of some 650 employees. There’s no way it can work. But there there’s no suitable reinforcements in sight—the lack of skilled workforce also plays a role. Thomas is unhappy because he spends all day just responding to user requests. And Josh told John this morning that he’s on the lookout for a new job. On days like this, John has trouble keeping his cool—and thinks long and hard about outside help.

John remembers a webinar that he attended recently. One sentence in particular keeps echoing around his head: “Tailored Cloud infrastructure develops your potential, especially for SMEs.” John had always thought that tailored solutions were something only for large companies. The seminar emphasised, however, that the Cloud could be particularly useful to companies of their size to unburden IT, save costs, and make the company more efficient as a whole.
So John knocked on his boss’s door and to his great surprise just a short while later found that a free initial meeting with Mr Weber, Bechtle consultant, had been arranged. In this meeting, everyone agreed that a strategy was needed to properly address the company’s specific needs in order to properly enjoy the benefits. Some days later, Mr Weber showed up in John’s company and analysed the situation on-site so that the solution wouldn’t just meet current requirements, but also offer flexible expansion opportunities for the future.
