NZ Contacts for Integration/Network Work
Hey all, I met a lot of you awesome guys at the last NZNOG and there is a pile of you that I would love to work with more, but in that wide jigsaw piece country of yours, I have no idea where you all are. We've got a lot of proposed projects on at the moment and NZ is featuring heavily in most of them, so I want to get a bunch of people on a list who we can use in different cities for different kinds of work. Work can involve site visits to install DSL services, onsite basic Cisco work, IPv6 work, general IT (fix server, pc, etc), and some consulting perhaps. We're dealing with a lot of large retail, and hotel chains which have networks throughout NZ as well, which is where some of the above work types slot into. I am not fabulous with NZ geography, so I would need someone to help with a list of the key cities, regional cities that might have those massive malls that always seem to have most of the 'common' chains. I prefer small businesses who are reliable, can be well presented, professional and know their towns well, as I will also need local advice on connectivity solutions - fibre, MetroE, wireless and so on in your particular area. There may be possible emergency work for problems, so I need to know your availability, and also your rates. I am looking at implementing a solution (which I've talked about before), where we have DSL handed off for the entire country (if possible) to a LNS in Auckland, so I will start talking to providers soon (don't all start emailing/calling me like last time!) ;-) So if you can send me an email directly on skeeve(a)eintellego.co.nzmailto:skeeve(a)eintellego.co.nz ...Skeeve -- Skeeve Stevens, CEO/Technical Director eintellego Pty Ltd - The Networking Specialists skeeve(a)eintellego.net / www.eintellego.net Phone: 1300 753 383, Fax: (+612) 8572 9954 Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 / skype://skeeve www.linkedin.com/in/skeeve ; facebook.com/eintellego -- NOC, NOC, who's there?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand "New Zealand is a predominantly urban country, with 72% of the population living in 16 main urban areas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_area and 53% living in the four largest cities of Aucklandhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auckland, Wellington http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellington, Christchurchhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch, and Hamilton http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton,_New_Zealand.[73]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand#cite_note-Urban-72 " I thought it was part of market research to understand your audience/client ? :) - Drew
Ok ok all! Wow, for a quiet list there sure is a lot of lurkers. I have received some two dozen emails... most of which look great. I will collate them next week as I have some large tenders/rollouts happening at the moment. Once I've had a moment to read/collate them all, I will get back to you and figure out if there is any missing information and so on. And to the guy who hassled me about not knowing the geography of NZ, I now have an A3 map printed out above my desk - so I know where you are ;-) Am I seeing any of you in Beijing next month for APNIC28? -- Skeeve Stevens, CEO/Technical Director eintellego Pty Ltd - The Networking Specialists skeeve(a)eintellego.net / www.eintellego.net Phone: 1300 753 383, Fax: (+612) 8572 9954 Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 / skype://skeeve www.linkedin.com/in/skeeve ; facebook.com/eintellego -- NOC, NOC, who's there?
