Frequently Asked Questions
What are FSD-Tech’s IT Audit & Optimization Services?
Our services provide a quantitative assessment of your entire IT environment—infrastructure, security, applications, and processes—to identify hidden costs, operational inefficiencies, and security risks. We then deliver an actionable roadmap for optimization and execution.
How do these services differ from a general IT consulting review?
A general review offers strategic advice; our service is data-driven and execution-focused. We use specialized tools for benchmarking and gap analysis, resulting in a prioritized roadmap where every optimization is ranked by its projected ROI (Return on Investment).
What is the primary business value of an optimization audit?
The primary value is financial and risk mitigation. We aim to achieve significant OpEx reduction (Operational Expenditure), ensure regulatory compliance, eliminate single points of failure (SPOFs), and boost overall system performance.
What is the typical duration of an Audit & Optimization engagement?
The duration typically ranges from 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the scope and complexity of your IT ecosystem (e.g., single data center vs. multi-cloud hybrid environment). We always conclude with a detailed final report and roadmap.
What specific areas of my IT infrastructure do you audit?
Our audit is holistic, covering Cloud/Hybrid Infrastructure (AWS, FishOS), Cybersecurity Posture (SASE, Zero Trust implementation), Network Health, Application Performance, and IT Service Management (ITSM) processes.
Do you audit software licensing and asset utilization?
Yes. We review software license consumption (e.g., SAP, major vendors) and asset utilization to identify redundancies and compliance risks, ensuring you are not over-licensed or facing potential vendor penalties.
What formal documents do I receive after the audit?
You receive a comprehensive Current State Assessment Report, the Optimization Roadmap ranked by ROI, and often updated formal design documentation such as High-Level Design (HLD) and Low-Level Design (LLD) for critical systems.
How do you ensure our audit aligns with GCC regulatory requirements?
We integrate regional standards (e.g., data residency laws, SAMA guidelines for finance, etc.) into our gap analysis. This ensures our recommendations not only optimize performance but also proactively address specific GCC compliance mandates.
Is an IT Audit the same as a penetration test?
No. A penetration test is a simulation of an attack. Our Security Posture Audit is a governance and configuration review. We check security policies, access controls, compliance with security frameworks, and the effective configuration of tools like SASE and EDR.
Do you audit our IT processes using frameworks like ITIL?
Yes. We conduct an ITIL Maturity Assessment on your IT Service Management (ITSM) processes, focusing on Incident, Change, and Problem Management to streamline workflows and reduce ticket resolution times.
How is the potential downtime or risk handled during the assessment phase?
The initial audit and discovery phase is non-intrusive and based primarily on read-only access and performance monitoring tools, ensuring zero disruption to your live production environment.
Do FSD-Tech’s services end with the final report?
No. Our key differentiator is audit-to-implementation. We are fully equipped to execute the optimization roadmap developed in the audit phase, ensuring the recommendations are delivered seamlessly by our Design & Implementation teams.
How do you ensure the optimizations we implement are sustainable?
We establish continuous monitoring and governance metrics post-implementation. We often transition clients to our Managed Services team, which provides 24/7/365 oversight to sustain the optimized performance and cost benefits long-term.
What industries do you specialize in for Audit & Optimization services?
We primarily support enterprise clients across Finance, Government, Healthcare, and Logistics in the GCC, all sectors where security, regulatory compliance, and scalable performance are mission-critical.
