THE KEY RESULT
New Headquarters Networked in One Weekend
Viyu set up Eland Energy’s network and telecommunications environment at its new headquarters over a single weekend, helping the company complete its relocation seamlessly.
01 — The Challenge
Eland Energy, an independent oil and natural gas exploration company, needed to relocate its entire headquarters without disrupting business operations.
The move also created an opportunity to improve the company’s technology environment. Eland wanted greater infrastructure reliability, increased network bandwidth, wireless roaming capabilities, and a more flexible phone system.
With operations extending beyond headquarters to offices, drilling rigs, and oil pumps, Eland needed a technology partner capable of managing more than a simple office move.
02 — The Viyu Solution
Viyu designed and implemented a Cisco-based network and telecommunications environment for Eland Energy’s new headquarters.
High-Speed Core Network
A Cisco 4510 chassis provided a 10GB core network solution to support the new environment.
Multi-Site Communications
Viyu implemented Cisco Business Edition 6000 multi-site phone systems to create a more uniform and flexible communications environment.
Wireless Connectivity
Cisco wireless controllers and multi-floor access points added wireless roaming capabilities throughout the headquarters.
Video Collaboration
Cisco video collaboration technology expanded Eland’s ability to communicate across locations.
Centralized Network Management
A Cisco Prime appliance was incorporated into the environment to support network management.

“When you imagine a typical implementation, you imagine there is a list of recommended products, a strategy, timeline, and so on. But Viyu helped me far beyond that. It was never a ‘check the boxes’ approach. Viyu cared about relieving me from all that was already on my plate by making the transition seamless.”
