Infrastructure Assessment
A clear map of what you're running, what it costs, and which parts are one failure from an incident.
Infrastructure that doesn't wake anyone at 3 AM.
Charlotte-based enterprise IT consulting — infrastructure, resilience and automation for organisations where downtime has a board-level cost.
Start a ConversationEnterprise infrastructure tends to accumulate rather than get designed. Systems arrive through acquisitions, urgent projects and departing staff, until nobody holds the whole picture and every change carries unknown risk.
Vertex Digital Systems was founded in Charlotte to restore that picture. Wesley Harrington built the practice around assessment before action — a discipline that occasionally reveals the right answer is to change nothing and document what exists.
We serve financial services, healthcare and manufacturing organisations across the Carolinas. We're independent of every vendor we assess, which matters when the honest recommendation is to keep a system you were told to replace.
Six areas where we do our most useful work for Charlotte businesses.
A clear map of what you're running, what it costs, and which parts are one failure from an incident.
Workload-by-workload analysis of what should move, what shouldn't, and what the real run-rate looks like afterwards.
Recovery objectives agreed with the business, then tested properly rather than documented and forgotten.
Removing manual toil from provisioning, patching and reporting so your team works on things that matter.
Practical hardening — identity, segmentation and monitoring — prioritised by realistic threat rather than checklist.
Rationalising overlapping tools and contracts that accumulated through growth and acquisition.
Every engagement follows the same four stages, so you always know where you are and what comes next.
Full inventory of systems, dependencies and costs — including what nobody documented.
Risks ranked by likelihood and business impact, not by technical interest.
Changes delivered in sequence with rollback defined before each step.
Testing against the recovery objectives the business actually agreed to.
