Background

About Simon Morris

A confident and highly motivated individual, I actively seek to bridge the gap between ICT and business objectives by helping organisations realise the earning potential of their technology as opposed to viewing it purely as a cost. Combining a strong technical background with a sharp approach to business, I am able to communicate effectively at every level of an organisation in order to achieve an outcome that makes business owners and managers truly appreciate their investment in ICT through the realisation of quantifable benefits.I continually strive to set new benchmarks in ICT consulting and actively pursue additional learning opportunities that may assist in providing greater value to my customer base. I work exceptionally well in any environment, whether that is on an individual basis or within a committed team platform. I believe that communication & honesty are the foundation for success regardless of the environment.My experience has crossed many business boundaries, including SME, Large, Corporate, Enterprise, Multi-National & Government. I've worked in Enterprise Networking through APAC, EMEA and the America's and now focus heavily on SDN/NFV, SD-WAN, Automation/Orchestration, End to End Security and Data Centre / Hybrid Cloud / Multi-Cloud alongside my traditional Enterprise Networking experience.I am a consistent over-achiever where possible and am not afraid to lead with innovate thinking in order to maintain this level of effectiveness.Specialties: Consulting Specialties- ICT Strategy Development - Return on Investment (ROI)- Business Case Creation & Successful Presentation - Cost v Benefit Analysis - Business Audit and Analysis - Summary & Detailed Proposal CreationICT Specialties- Physical & Virtualised Server, Desktop & Storage - Data Centre & Cloud Computing Architecture - WAN/MAN/LAN & Wireless Architecture - Network & Security Services - Unified Communications (Video, Voice, Presence)- Mobility & Remote Access
