Bhopal-based Netlink software group has plans to tap the potential of information technology in new areas like remote monitoring for addressing all major downtime risks of companies that involve people, processes, and state-of-the-art technology.
 
The company has prepared a blueprint of Rs 80 crore for the purpose and is likely to take on some big IT firms in the sector. However, the company is still awaiting the state government's nod for clearance on 10 acres in the proposed Bhopal IT park.
 
"Through a holistic approach based on our decade-long experience, our company is now venturing into supporting mission-critical environments. In simple words, if natural or man-made disaster takes place, we will make sure that our clients' business will not suffer due to the technology failure," Anurag Shrivastava, chief technology officer and promoter of the group, told Business Standard here, adding, "the project will take shape by next year provided land is available in time".
 
"In the days to come, our main business driver will be partnerships with big technology companies of telecom, manufacturing, etc," he added.
 
"We are waiting for the land to be allotted. Last year we were assured by the state IT department that land would be allotted to us on priority. We have plans to develop a remote monitoring centre in Bhopal for our existing customers. This depends on cutting-edge technology. We will help them reduce the impact of downtime, and enable new mission-critical capabilities through this project."
 
Worldwide big IT solutions providers offer costly remote monitoring business solutions that put mid-size companies under severe financial strain.
 
"Our clients will be able to save a minimum of 20 per cent on IT spending," said Shrivastava, who has redesigned his business model at all company locations in India and the US.
 
Without naming a big telecom solution providing company he said: "We will enter into a deal with the company within two months so that we can broaden our client-base and increase product portfolios that will include disaster recoveries, product life cycle management."
