The Ideology of

Bordeaux Systemics

Bordeaux Systemics was established in 2007 and is a privately-owned IT services company. We are the technology support infrastructure for professional organizations and nonprofits on the Eastern Seaboard and throughout the country. We specialize in small business IT support for companies that range from 10 to 300 employees.

We Believe...People matter, objects don't.

Here is some of the thinking that drives The Bordeaux Solution.

Incentives are Everything

Time and materials IT consultants do not make money unless you have problems. They have no real business incentive to be proactive about solving your issues. BORDEAUX SOLUTION: Because we provide unlimited support for a fixed price, we are rewarded for our success in providing a trouble-free platform, not for failure.

Data is Precious, Hardware is Disposable

Most small business IT consulting companies recommend sinking more and more money into hardware in the hopes that a better machine will be less likely to fail. BORDEAUX SOLUTION: We plan for hardware failure by protecting your data with automated, monitored backups and offsite redundancy. This approach reduces costs and protects what really matters, your data.

Small Businesses Shouldn't Run Servers

Servers are expensive, high risk and high maintenance—and you probably don't need any. We'll show you how to reduce infrastructure and save money. BORDEAUX SOLUTION: Our IT consultant service includes a file server appliance so you can retire your servers and we can automate the management of services like backup and disaster recovery.

Technology is a Means to an End

Too many technologists can't resist experimenting with the latest thing, but your business is not an experiment. BORDEAUX SOLUTION: Bordeaux's goal is to improve the effectiveness, productivity and profitability of your organization. Usually, this means we choose the most reliable IT solution, not the latest fad.

Infrastructure is Risk

Too many business IT solutions include the purchase of expensive, and rapidly depreciating, hardware and software. Ownership of these solutions puts the risk squarely on your shoulders. BORDEAUX SOLUTION: Because our business IT solutions do not require the purchase of any hardware or software, we remove that risk, and all the associated headaches, and manage it for you.

IT Budgets Should be Predictable

Most small business IT consulting companies cannot provide predictable IT costs because they are not in the business of controlling costs, and make most of their money recovering from failure. BORDEAUX SOLUTION: Bordeaux provides the best fixed-price, unlimited business IT solutions has to offer so you'll always know what you will spend on IT.
