One of the main drivers for the creation of F5 Framework was the prohibitive cost to companies of engaging large, multinational consultancy firms. These firms often have their own (or their partners) products & licences to sell and their consultancy fees alone can often run into millions of dollars. This can price out those companies who would benefit the most from consultancy. Often companies will employ individual consultants & contractors directly and manage them internally but this is inefficient and costly in terms of breadth of experience, guarantees of work, delivery timeframes and cost.

At F5 Framework are consultants are specialist in a wide range of industries and we stay abreast of all best of breed software / service providers across the business IT spectrum (including Open Source technologies) so are in a unique position to advise you on the best solution for your company.

We have no products to sell and no licencing affiliations so are completely neutral in the advice that we give.

So confident are we in the benefits our service can bring we offer prospective clients a minimum of  two days completely free consultancy from two of our lead analysts.

In this time they will work onsite with your staff to listen to any specific issues that you face or will review your entire IT architecture if you have no defined project you wish to engage us on.

At the end of this period you will be given a suggested project plan and initial high level solution design with cost, timeframes and saving estimates.

Your business can then decide to do one of the following:

1. Engage upshot to expand upon the proposed solution and give detailed architecture, timelines, cost savings, resource needs etc.
2. Engage upshot to bring the plan to fruition in its entirety with our own dedicated project & development teams.
3. Engage upshot to project manage and supply expertise to your own staff.
4. Take the plan to one of our competitors to implement.
5. Build the solution in house with your own staff.
6. Throw the suggestions in the bin and end your relationship with Upshot!

Of course if you try options 4, 5 or 6 we make no promises of your project's success!
