     The following information represents some of the procedures of a typical preventive maintenance program:
Data Backup
Data loss is the result of two reasons:
1. No backup has been created
2. The media used failed to successfully capture the data.
To reduce the possibility of data loss we require clients to maintain backups on Tape, CD-RW, Jazz or Zip disk, DVD-ROM, or other standard equipment used for the process (Floppy disks have a high rate of failure and should not be used to protect vital information). Backups are verified during each service visit to ensure that critical data is being safely captured. In the event of a system failure data will be transferred to another working system while repairs are being made.
Anti Virus Protection
Clients are required to maintain current versions of anti-virus software regularly. Systems will be configured to routinely perform virus definition updates and execute a weekly full system virus scan. The anti-virus software is configured to scan in-coming and out-going e-mails; the most common method of virus transfer. Anti-virus settings and definition files are verified during each service visit to ensure that data is protected from virus damage.
Internal Component Cleaning
Dust is considered one of the leading causes of hardware failure; as such all moving components are thoroughly cleaned and lubricated during service visits. Our service teams will initiate a thorough check for all hardware systems.
Software Updates/System Optimization
The primary concern that we have for your establishment will be through the customization of your OS system to fit your business needs. We will maintain your operating system through updates and patches that are downloaded and installed to ensure that your system has the most current version of the OS software. Internet browser software updates or upgrades are preformed as software changes become available. Updated component drivers are installed as they become available or are required by system changes that will help your business press on in today's fast moving economy. Hardware configurations are checked to be sure that OS are operating efficiently and without conflict with other components.
Defragmentation and scan disk maintenance programs are run to detect any problems that your hard-drives may have. Specific error diagnostic software is run on other system components to verify that your OS systems and other vital components are in optimum working order. Hard drive file organization is checked and any misplaced files are moved to their correct data folders (with your consent); moreover, any temporary or unneeded files are located and removed, in accordance with what is deemed as the best solution for your systems and business.
     Furthermore, we will perform a consultation visits to review your current setup and then provide you with a custom maintenance program as technology advances cause system to have customizable maintenance program. You have the choice to choose from quarterly, bi-annual or annual service schedules at affordable service rates that will suit your business budgets.
