When Traffic Engineering Solutions – Auckland’s leading transportation consultancy – continued to grow, their IT environment began to feel the strain of supporting a larger and increasingly busy team.
What had once been perfectly adequate for a smaller consultancy was now supporting a 30-person organisation delivering complex infrastructure and planning projects. As workloads increased and collaboration became more critical, the business needed its technology environment to be dependable, scalable, and professionally supported.
A hardware failure served as the moment that highlighted how important resilient infrastructure and responsive IT support would be for the next stage of the company’s growth.
They needed stability. Fast.
Marksmen IT stepped in during the incident and worked quickly to restore operations and minimise disruption to the team. Once systems were stabilised, the focus shifted from immediate recovery to building a stronger and more reliable foundation for the future.
Marksmen IT worked alongside the Traffic Engineering Solutions team to modernise and strengthen their environment by:
- Delivering a server environment designed for a growing professional services business
- Implementing a multi-site backup systems to protect critical project and client data
- Scaling infrastructure to support a larger team and more demanding workloads
- Providing proactive, responsive IT support overflow
- Working alongside the internal team member who’d been assisting with technology, providing stronger external support and upskilling so they could keep owning it
The goal wasn’t just to solve a short-term problem, it was to ensure the business had an IT platform capable of supporting its continued growth.
The Result
The impact was immediate and measurable:
- Reduced downtime across the organisation
- Faster issue resolution when problems arise
- A stronger backup and security posture
- Increased confidence in the reliability of core systems
- Less internal distraction from project delivery
Today, Traffic Engineering Solutions operates with confidence, knowing their systems are professionally managed and built to support the scale of their work.
“If you can afford it, do it. The peace of mind alone is worth it.”
