Projects and Consulting
If you are planning a technology project for your business, whether it is a new fit-out, a relocation, or an upgrade, you need to pay attention to the design phase. A well-designed network can give you a competitive edge and ensure your human resources stay as productive as possible. A poorly designed technology environment can cause you headaches, inefficiencies, downtime and wasted resources.
Pre-Construction Design
If you are planning a network project for your business, whether it is a new fit-out, a relocation, or an upgrade, you need to pay attention to the design phase. The design phase is where you determine how your network will meet your current and future needs, provide optimal performance and security, and minimize the total cost of ownership. A well-designed network can give you a competitive edge, while a poorly designed network can cause you headaches, inefficiencies, downtime, and wasted resources.

Wi-Fi Consulting & Design
Another key aspect of network design is wireless network design, which involves designing a wireless solution that enables you to leverage the benefits of mobility, flexibility, and scalability. Wireless networks are essential for modern businesses, as they support a variety of devices, applications, and scenarios. However, wireless networks also pose unique challenges and risks, such as interference, coverage gaps, security threats, and capacity issues. Wireless network design requires careful analysis, testing, and optimization to deliver a reliable, secure, and high-performance wireless solution.
One of the key aspects of network design is pre-construction network design, which involves planning your network before you start the installation. Pre-construction network design allows you to assess the site conditions, requirements, and constraints, and design a network that fits the physical space, accommodates the expected user demand, and integrates with the existing infrastructure. Pre-construction network design also helps you to avoid potential pitfalls and delays during the installation phase, as well as to ensure compliance with industry standards and best practices.
One of the applications that can benefit from a robust wireless network is Microsoft Teams calling, a cloud-based phone system that allows you to make and receive calls from anywhere, using any device. Microsoft Teams calling offers several advantages for your business, such as:
- Reducing costs and complexity by eliminating the need for a traditional phone system and its associated hardware, maintenance, and contracts.
- Enhancing productivity and collaboration by integrating voice, video, chat, and file sharing in one platform.
- Improving customer service and satisfaction by enabling faster and more personalized communication, as well as features such as voicemail, call forwarding, and call recording.
- Increasing flexibility and mobility by allowing you and your staff to access your phone number and contacts from any device, whether it is a desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
Coworking
Co-working spaces are becoming the new normal and with that comes new infrastructure challenges. Monocera® has vast experience in the design, installation and maintenance of many coworking locations. These large networks require expertise in Wireless Design, Large Network design and configuration, Video Conferencing systems, Commercial Displays, Intercoms and more.
Unified Communications
All great modern boardroom designs are a blend of architecture, construction and technology. These three elements work together to create a space that aids collaboration and communication. The shape of the room and the materials used in its construction can greatly affect the audio quality, and lighting can make or break the video conferencing experience. The video conferencing equipment also matters and should be matched to the size of the room.
Rural & Regional
Recent advances in telecommunications technology like LEO satellite and 5G mean that fast and stable internet connectivity is no longer reserved for metropolitan areas. Using a combination of hardware and services, we provide robust and high-speed internet solutions to even the most remote locations in Australia.
Teams
It’s more than just chat software, its a fully integrated collaboration suite. Sharing files, phone calls and video conferencing are all possible within Teams, as is the use of Microsoft OneNote and Office apps, keeping everything within Teams. It can also cut down on emails, removing the need to reply all to email chains – everyone in the Team can access the conversations as they occur. With its SharePoint integration, all your files are available, even when on the move, with the Teams app available on mobile.
SharePoint
SharePoint is a cloud-based service that helps organisations share and manage content and applications to facilitate collaboration. SharePoint can be configured to operate as an organisation’s intranet, and can also eliminate the need for a physical file server and traditional infrastructure, VPNs and other networking requirements, allowing users to access their data wherever they have an internet connection. SharePoint also allows for simple and effective backups, ensuring important data is protected and recoverable.
Relocations and Migrations
Relocating or migrating IT infrastructure can be a complex and risky process that requires careful planning and preparation. IT infrastructure includes hardware, software, network, data, and applications that support the business operations and goals. Moving or changing any of these components can have significant impacts on the performance, security, availability, and functionality of the IT systems and services. Therefore, it is important to plan relocations and migrations ahead of time to:
– Identify the scope, objectives, and requirements of the project
– Assess the current state of the IT infrastructure and the desired state after the relocation or migration
– Evaluate the feasibility, benefits, and challenges of the relocation or migration
– Develop a detailed plan and timeline for the relocation or migration, including roles and responsibilities, tasks, resources, dependencies, risks, and contingencies
– Communicate the plan and expectations to all stakeholders, including management, staff, vendors, and customers
– Test the new or migrated IT infrastructure before, during, and after the relocation or migration to ensure functionality, compatibility, and reliability
– Monitor and troubleshoot the relocation or migration process and resolve any issues or problems
– Document and evaluate the outcomes and lessons learned from the relocation or migration
By planning relocations and migrations ahead of time, businesses can minimize disruptions, downtime, errors, and costs, and maximize efficiency, quality, security, and customer satisfaction. Planning also helps to align the IT infrastructure with the business needs and goals, and to leverage the opportunities and advantages of the new or improved IT environment.
