1st Advance’s service starts with the configuration of hardware components and, where applicable, the installation of a customer-specific operating system build. Getting the configuration correct has never been more important, as the risks and costs of getting if wrong can be high not only in lost productivity but also the exposure to threats and breaches of legislation and compliance. Once configured, 1st Advance can help set up the management environment, ensuring that key information is regularly reported back to the customer. We can then provide the on going remote or local solution for you to manage this.

1st Advance can ship equipment to required locations. A variety of options are available, from next day delivery to areas such as Goods In or Reception, through to guaranteed same-day and weekend delivery.
