The Challenge

Scott and R.S. Elliot Specialty Supply needed a vendor who took IT off of their plate. They needed a specialist who could help with management of 3rd party vendors and allow Scott to be worry-free.

Our Solutions

Gaining Scott’s trust through taking ownership on systems and networks was LEK’s first task. We acknowledged Scott’s ideas and technical background to ease his worries and lessen his responsibilities. Helping him and his company manage 3rd party vendor responsibilities like telephone conversions was important to him, so it became important to us.
