Information Technology has changed a lot in 20 years.
Axiom's service commitment has not.

Axiom Corporation's roots are in Information Technology services. We've been serving a wide variety of government agency and commercial IT needs since the company was founded in 1988. Whether you need on-site resources to support end-users, assistance in planning for future IT needs, a large scale integration, migration or development project, or IV&V or VV&A work to test software or systems, Axiom Corporation can provide expert resources to solve your IT challenges.

Some of the IT services we offer are described below:

Network Engineering : Systems Integration : Technology Assessment and Planning : Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery : Database Management, Design and Development : Application Development : Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V)

Network Engineering

Properly functioning networks are crucial to productivity in every organization. Axiom has the experience to support your network needs, as we have performed numerous projects designing, implementing, updating and maintaining networks. We assess and redesign networks based on current and future needs of clients based on performance, budget, and availability requirements. Axiom has experience implementing virtual environments with VMWare and Citrix. During network projects, we maintain controlled staging, testing, and operational environments, including implementing processes and procedures for configuration management and quality assurance. We are skilled in working with products from many manufacturers, and have worked with routers, bridges, firewalls and other networking equipment by Cisco, HP, 3Com, Dell, and others.

Systems Integration

Every office, every initiative, every IT user is different. That's why Axiom goes beyond stock solutions made to force-fit your application. We listen to what you need, and we analyze how you work…and how you could work faster, more efficiently, more productively.

Most importantly, we assess the systems already in place, and work with those to integrate current and new technology with minimal workflow interruption. Leveraging familiar platforms and interfaces, Axiom designs systems that promote integration and scalability. Legacy system updates, database platform upgrades and core data software changes can all be performed as part of a complete systems integration with cost containment and operational efficiency as the driving factors.

Technology Assesment and Planning

If you know you need some improvements in technology within your organization, but aren't quite sure where to start, Axiom can help. We'll work with your IT department and organizational management to evaluate your hardware, your software, your network, your people, and your processes. We'll look at your needs, your resources, and your goals for the future. At the end of the assessment, we provide you with a thorough report identifying what's working and what's not, and where you can improve, be more efficient, be more secure, or better poised for growth. Whatever your goals, we'll recommend a plan to get there based on where you are today.

Depending on what we find, recommendations could include anything from software integration to prevent dual work, to training employees to more efficiently use applications they already have. Once the assessment is complete, Axiom can implement some or all of the steps in the plan.

If your organization needs help assessing the current areas for improvement, planning for the future, or identifying needs and costs for an upcoming budget season, let us help. We've performed audits and developed plans for numerous other organizations and can do the same for you.

Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery

System failures, natural disasters, acts of terrorism and fires are all threats that could cripple IT systems. Axiom has created and implemented business continuity/disaster recovery plans for organizations such as Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA), and can do the same for you. After thorough analysis, Axiom recommends a program that best fits the needs, budget, and priority level of your systems and information, leaving you with confidence that your organization's precious data will be safe and your downtime will be minimized in the event of a major problem.

Database Management, Design and Development

In today's world, managing data for efficiency and accuracy is an absolute necessity. Whether your organization needs to develop a new database or manage, migrate or upgrade an existing one, Axiom has the skills and experience to support you. Axiom's experience in databases is in design, administration and development. We have worked with Oracle, SQL Server, and Access to develop large scale, mid-level, and small databases for a variety of purposes. We can provide design, optimization, updating, and data migration. We have also developed schemas, queries, and stored procedures within a database for client/server applications. If you are looking for more flexible database access and data manipulation, we are also familiar with T-SQL and PL/SQL to meet your unique needs.

Application Development

The value in your operation resides in two primary investments - your people, and the tools you give them to do their jobs with. Axiom Corporation offers a core competency in analyzing your workflow and outcomes, then developing technology-based solutions that get you furthest, fastest and most cost-effectively.

A key consideration present in all developed products is user satisfaction. Axiom is diligent in understanding where and how the products will be used, and even more importantly, by whom.

Axiom has diverse experience developing software products for specialized applications. We are familiar with the processes and the pitfalls of full life-cycle software development and rely on a sound methodology refined through years of government and private sector service. Using standardized software environments when possible to avoid proprietary issues (along with their expense and incompatibility), our applications are designed for integration and scalability. While the solution can be turnkey, Axiom collaborates with clients throughout the development process, offering regular progress reports and open dialogue regarding opportunities and issues.

Environment, platform and server experience includes:

Independent Verification & Validation (IV&V)

No matter how much time or what level of resources are put into software and systems development, IV&V may still be needed to provide a third party review of whether the system fully does what it’s intended to or not. Axiom Corporation can provide this support. We do not have affiliations with outside software developers, meaning the IV&V work is truly independent and free of outside influences. Plus, our experts follow a documented path to verify and validate that all the steps from design, code and test IV&V, integration, and performance meet requirements.

We are also familiar with the planning, inspections, reporting, installation test, operations and maintenance IV&V, plus compliance, documentation and acquisition elements IV&V. Finally, Axiom will provide after-action assessments as part of the process, in a straight-forward manner which does not judge success or place blame, but rather attempts to discover why things happened, focuses directly at the task and goals that were to be accomplished, and encourages all involved to directly discuss important issues that were raised in the process in order to focus on system improvement. The end result is that your organization will be confident in the results and performance capability of your systems and software.
