The Lead Up Software storage team has accumulated in excess of twenty years experience in large-scale corporate computing, spanning mainframe and open systems environments. We have worked extensively within organisations that adopted Storage Area Network technologies in the comparatively early stages of their development, and as a result, have amassed substantial experience in:

	Business Analysis and Business Benefit Realisation for SAN
	Audit, Design, Implementation and ongoing support and expansion of storage solutions
	Preparation of business cases, and overseeing tender processes

Furthermore, with a broad experience in leveraging operational performance benefits from SAN solutions we are able to assist our customers with:

	Ongoing management, expansion, and tailoring of Enterprise-wide backup, restore, and archive solutions, including "LAN Free" methodologies where appropriate
	Design of tape automation solutions to support the above
	Data replication and mirroring solutions to support high availability and disaster recovery scenarios
	Generation of support documentation, operational procedures, and capacity plans

Whilst the Lead Up Software team has extensive experience working with infrastructure and software provided by major storage solution vendors including IBM, Hitachi Data Systems, Storagetek, and Brocade we remain independent. Our focus is in assisting customers to realise the intended, and value added benefits, of their storage related infrastructure purchases: the Lead Up Software unique advantage.
