IT Services
Consultants for the systems that run your business.
South 6 places IT consultants across enterprise applications, infrastructure, data, and engineering. Engagements range from a single specialist on a routine integration to a full project team through an implementation. Our consultants hold active certifications with the major platform vendors, so the stack you already run is one we have already staffed.

We staff six areas: aerospace and defense, architecture and civil, construction across commercial and industrial and public works and residential, environmental, process manufacturing, and software and systems engineering.
Data Center Assessments
A data center assessment gives you a current picture of the devices, brands, and licenses running on your network. Clients commission one to optimize cooling, add redundancy, improve energy efficiency, or get asset and license costs under control. You get the inventory and the analysis behind it, which is what you need to plan upcoming projects and stop paying for what you are not using.
Connected IT Service Solutions
We staff and augment product teams building connected devices and the software behind them. Engagements cover market research through design, engineering, and deployment, sized to whatever capacity the team is missing.
Product Engineering: Silicon design and validation, embedded platform engineering, connected devices, wireless product and infrastructure engineering.

Give us the platform and the phase you are in, and we will come back with names.
