Nikkiso Cryo, Inc. and CineCity Solutions Create a SharedVision

Background
A subsidiary of Nikkiso Co., Ltd., founded in 1953 and then known as Special Pump Co., Ltd., has been manufacturing special pumps and compressors.NCI's cryogenic submergible have been highly reputed among petrochemical, chemical, power industry and other various industries for speciality and reliability of products

The Challenge
To manage its computer network of 37 users, four servers and two routers, Nikkiso Cryo, Inc. originally had a part-time IT person in house. However, when streamlining operations, Nikkiso Cryo, Inc. decided to look at outsourcing this function as a more cost-effective option.

"We needed to make sure that when making this switch we were still able to respond to the needs of our users," explained Michael Tanamachi, President at Nikkiso Cryo, Inc.. "They needed to know that support was there even though the resource was no longer in house."

Nikkiso Cryo, Inc. made the switch to a managed services model, where its Cine Ciity Solutions provider was responsible for handling all of its IT needs. However, within a few months Nikkiso Cryo, Inc. realized it was being overcharged and under-serviced by its vendor and Tanamachi was spending too much time handling IT problems himself.

Still believing the managed service model was the best option, Tanamachi evaluated six new service providers. "After meeting each one, we felt that we had the best chemistry with the Cine Ciity Solutions team," said Tanamachi. "They were more knowledgeable and had a much stronger list of references. They were also very upfront with us regarding potential roadblocks and made valid recommendations for alternative options."

 



Learn how CineCity Solutions can make IT support more efficient and cost effective. Our pricing approach puts the responsibility back on us - and lets you control your budget.

For years, IT companies and their clients have been working against each other. Something breaks, the IT company comes out to fix it, followed by a big bill.

That’s all about to change. With CineCity Solutions, we work with you to make sure that things don’t break in the first place. Using our approach to billing, our incentive is to keep your network running smoothly. The better we do our job, the less you’ll see of us, and the more you’ll get out of your network. At last, you can stop paying for downtime. Doesn’t that make sense?

Each project is unique, so we offer three different methods of application development. We can work with your existing development team, your end users, or your enterprise IT staff.

And we work with everyone from the 5000 client company to one-person non-profits so no job is too big or too small.

There are many things you can do to improve the way your business operates. You've probably been able to put some of them into practice. But did you ever try to change something about your business only to find that you couldn't do it because your off-the-shelf software wouldn't support it?

Our experienced team of application and database developers can provide a custom-built solution to any problem and we now offer 3 unique approaches to take on any level project. Listed to the right are quick summaries of each approach.

Maximum Flexibility for Complex Projects

Your business doesn't stand still, so why should your development team? In a successful business, IT systems are constantly changing, every week presenting some new challenge. We've developed DynamicDevelopment with that reality in mind.

With DynamicDevelopment - our partner-oriented service - our developers spend most of their programming time on-site at your company, regularly helping you to create new features and address problems as the need arises, rather than simply finishing a project only to discover that your business has changed and having to start again from square one. By being on-site, we get to know your company's needs, and apply that knowledge when you need it - right now, not months from now. We work on your system piece by piece and install working versions every week so you can constantly see progress.

There's also a financial advantage: we only charge for the time we work, rather than charging a flat fee for every new project. The result? A cost savings for your company, and the benefit of having an outside consultant who knows your business well enough to react quickly. The focus of Dynamic Development is on building trust so you get exactly the system you want when you need it.
