The Client: National Grid

National Grid is one of the world’s largest utility companies.

The Challenge

National Grid wanted to bring its Overhead Line and Cable Alliance Partners together into one building.  The primary challenge would be creating a single IT infrastructure that enabled each Alliance partner to access the building’s resources securely. This infrastructure had to comply with National Grid’s Smart Workspace initiative.
