Aware Support Service
 


Aware Support Services provide a comprehensive suite of IT operations services, from monitoring to repair to application administration. Aware customers are able to out-task device monitoring and service case management to Alliant Technologies’ 24x7x365 Network Operations Center, gaining access to a broad set of engineering skills – all for a cost lower than delivering these services internally.

With Alliant Technologies’ Aware Services, our engineers act as integral members of your IT operations team, so that your own IT staff can focus on more strategic initiatives. Alliant’s ITIL-based operations services proactively monitor, repair, and maintain your IT infrastructure: Cisco routers, switches, firewalls, VoIP systems and servers. Aware’s strength is its 24/7 Service Desk staffed by engineers – not call center agents – who know your environment intimately and can move quickly to maintain high service levels for your organization.
