Pertingo Computer Support

Now that the NFL season is in Playoffs, everyone in central Indiana is thinking about the hoards of people who will descend on us in early February to watch the Super Bowl. Our host committee has done a fabulous job of preparing for the onslaught of people who will spend that week here in Indianapolis. We here at Port-to-Port Consulting have started thinking about the impact of all of these visitors on our routine that week. Many of our small business computer outsourcing customers are also starting to wonder. One of my downtown Indianapolis clients told me that their parking garage has informed them that their monthly passes will be no good during the Super Bowl week. They don't know where they'll park, or what it will cost them.

For all of the companies to which we provide IT support services, there are some remote access capabilities. At least enough for our computer help desk staff to connect for maintenance and troubleshooting. For many, the remote access capability is more robust. We're talking to others about enhancing their remote access in advance of the Super Bowl. For the average office worker these days, the ability to work remotely is relatively inexpensive to provide. We add this capability to many of our computer network services customers after the first big snow storm each winter.

Because we know the date for the big game, we can get ahead of the traffic bottlenecks it will cause by making sure that our customers in downtown Indianapolis have a way to work without leaving home. Thank goodness getting them to come back afterwards is not our problem.
