Challenge

TTM Healthcare needed to update its IT environment with an upgraded managed security infrastructure, migration to a cloud server, a comprehensive disaster recovery solution, and other cloud-based infrastructure upgrades.

Solution we designed

Codec’s consultants recommended and implemented a managed hardware network in TTM Healthcare’s new offices, equipping the office environment with modern security infrastructure, managed security services, and segregated network traffic to protect its business network from unwanted intruders.

Impact we delivered

  • Consolidation of Office 365 licensing contracts into a single agreement, securing an annual cost savings of 10 percent.
  • Innovative security layers eliminating the risk of malicious attacks delivered via email.
  • Improved GDPR compliance, reducing the risk of fines and damage to the company’s brand reputation.
  • Data-driven analytics capabilities to monitor sales performance and implement optimisations within a single sales cycle.
Problem

Fenced in by high costs and increased liability

As a leading global healthcare recruitment company, TTM Healthcare every year helps thousands of nurses, doctors, therapists and other healthcare workers receive quality job placements in Ireland, the UK, Europe, and beyond.

While planning its relocation to new corporate offices, the organisation realised it also needed to update its IT environment with a managed security infrastructure, migration to a cloud server, and a comprehensive disaster recovery solution, among other network and infrastructure upgrades.

TTM Healthcare also needed to control its IT costs through licensing consolidation. And, given the growing importance of consistent GDPR compliance, the organisation needed data protection and other services that offered cost-effective solutions to regulatory demands.

“TTM Healthcare’s IT infrastructure lacked the flexibility and modern capabilities the organisation needed to sustain business performance, optimise spending, and deliver a strong user experience. Codec’s consultants worked with TTM Healthcare leaders to identify the highest-value hardware and software solutions to implement.”

Solution

Enhanced capabilities, from security to sales

Codec’s consultants recommended and implemented a managed hardware network in TTM Healthcare’s new offices, equipping the office environment with modern security infrastructure, managed security services, and segregated network traffic to protect its business network from unwanted intruders.

Meanwhile, new cloud-based infrastructure was implemented to deliver new capabilities, including enhanced scalability, security and flexibility, for many of the organisation’s core processes. Centralised network management provided enhanced security functionality and the ability to monitor network traffic. Microsoft Office 365 was also used to transition from an on-premise licensing model to a cloud-based licensing solution, allowing solutions and licensing costs to be scaled up or down according to the organisation’s needs.

Codec also implemented Dynamics 365 and Power BI to support real-time reporting and analysis for sales performance, improving TTM Healthcare’s ability to evaluate its recruiting services and manage sales staff toward better results.

Results

Cost-effective impact and delivery

Given the heavy regulation faced by healthcare companies, TTM Healthcare significantly improved its digital security—and reduced its liability and risk of noncompliance—by onboarding multiple hardware and software solutions as part of its Codec-led digital transformation.

Other highlights of this transformation include:

  • Consolidation of Office 365 licensing contracts into a single agreement, securing an annual cost savings of 10 percent.
  • Innovative security layers eliminating the risk of malicious attacks delivered via email.
  • Improved GDPR compliance, reducing the risk of fines and damage to the company’s brand reputation.
  • Data-driven analytics capabilities to monitor sales performance and implement optimisations within a single sales cycle.
