Equipment and capacity planning
Define the intended use of computers, servers, storage and supporting equipment. Review compatibility with existing applications, expected growth and practical constraints such as workspace, power and connectivity.
IT hardware and infrastructure
COG helps organisations in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, plan IT hardware and infrastructure, including equipment requirements, procurement planning, setup and integration.
CLEAR REQUIREMENTS. CONSIDERED DELIVERY.THE RIGHT START
The right foundation for your daily work.
Infrastructure decisions should follow the work your organisation needs to perform. Staff applications, storage, connectivity, power conditions and support expectations all influence the specification. Whether you are opening an office or replacing ageing equipment, a clear requirements list helps distinguish essential capacity from unnecessary features and makes competing quotations easier to compare.
What we can help with.
Procurement scope
Prepare specifications and clarify quantities, warranty expectations and required accessories. Product availability, supplier terms, pricing and delivery arrangements must be confirmed at quotation; planning does not imply that equipment is held in stock.
Setup and operational handover
Define the installation, configuration and integration work needed for the agreed equipment. Plan administrator access, asset records, basic operating checks and the division of responsibility for warranty issues and ongoing support.

Your questions, answered.
Can you help us decide which computers or servers to buy?
A requirements review can turn your workloads and user needs into a suitable specification. It should account for application requirements, storage, upgrade options and support, rather than relying only on a processor name or headline price.
Do you have specific hardware models available immediately?
Availability is confirmed during quotation with the relevant supply arrangements. A proposed specification can include acceptable alternatives, but the exact model, warranty terms, price and delivery expectations should be agreed before purchase.
Can new hardware work with our current office systems?
Compatibility needs to be checked against your network, operating systems, applications and peripherals. Share the current inventory so installation and integration requirements can be included in the scope rather than discovered after procurement.
