PowerUP - A Road Less Traveled - Now Paved with Success

“Bridging the Digital Divide” is the motto of PowerUP, the leading national non-profit organization dedicated to helping today's youth excel in a technical world. They came to one of edecen’s affiliates, Trilogy Networks with a dream of computer centers throughout the nation, a will to make it happen, but little idea on how to take their vision and make it a reality. In addition, they wanted 250 of these centers installed by the end of year 2000. It was now almost the middle of that very same year!
Not only was Trilogy Networks there with the knowledge, people, and contacts to make those dreams a reality, but we also deployed over 330 sites instead of the required 250. Not an easy task considering the short timeframe given to plan the site infrastructure, project manage site readiness and product distribution, and send engineers out over the nation to install these sites. Trilogy Networks was up to the task. We bring this sense of urgency to each of our projects - our reaction speed helps you stay ahead of your competition.
Trilogy Networks offered these services to PowerUP to make their dream a reality:
Project Planning - from beginning to end, including:
Resource management
Product acquisition and distribution
Site design
Network infrastructure design
Application selection
Security planning
Project Management - to make sure that pre-completion projects were completed on schedule and to make sure that suppliers and distributors delivered as promised. All of this with a secure Web-based interface that PowerUP could use to check the status of projects in real-time over the Internet.
