Engineering and Architecture Services

Maximum Return on Investment (ROI)

Pure engineering firms often get caught up in the technology and lose focus on the mission of the customer. QBE recognizes the value of both perspectives. The way you run your organization impacts the way we develop our IT engineering and architecture solutions. Our expertise in product selection, business strategy and acquisition planning ensures you get the maximum return on your IT investment.

How do you bring a new architecture framework into your day-to-day operations and make it an integral part of your organization? How do you reduce costs and increase efficiencies? How do you comply with the Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) requirements? Our engineering and architecture solutions address these critical issues while helping you achieve mission success.

Our Capabilities

• Enterprise Architecture—QBE provides you with a comprehensive vision of how our recommended IT solutions will tie into your organization and operate together. Our solutions adhere to the DoDAF to ensure milestones are measured and met throughout your project.
  
  
• Systems Engineering & Technology Assistance (SETA)—We take an active role in the acquisition process, conducting source selection, evaluating proposals, and managing the integrators performing the work. Our expert oversight ensures your engineering solutions are built and deployed successfully, on time and within budget.
  
  
• Data Center—Our holistic approach to design, operations and maintenance ensures you get the maximum value from your IT systems and the data center facilities themselves. We continually seek new ways to achieve greater power and cooling efficiencies. Our capabilities include Design and Consolidation, Local and Storage Area Networking and Data Backup and Replication.
  
  
  • Design and Consolidation—QBE designs data center facilities based on customer requirements. Consolidation services include aligning IT systems with your organization’s business processes, improving efficiencies using the innovative technologies and implementing server virtualization.
    
    
  • Local (LAN) and Storage Area Networking (SAN)—For organizations that run separate LAN and SAN networks, QBE provides convergence storage solutions to eliminate redundancies. Through LAN/SAN convergence, we help organizations realize greater efficiencies, significant cost savings and improved agility.   
    
    
  • Data Backup and Replication—If you lack a continuity of operations plan, QBE will help you determine the most cost-effective strategy for your organization. We assess critical factors such as how data is replicated and objectives for recovery time from data loss events.
