Managed Operating Environment MOE Service
A managed operating environment MOE service takes significant effort to get right and stay right. It’s not easy to enforce a set of standards in a completely airtight way, especially in large scale environments. The deeper the MOE definition, the more hands-on effort is required to test, select, and maintain the standard, the broader the extent of the MOE, extends the work required further.
You need the people to plan and implement the program, as well as those to manage it as a regular ongoing function, the test facilities, and technically skilled people to conduct product testing, the Network Management Tools such as software distribution technology and the time and skills to manage the vendors.
Working with an external partner provides companies with access to more vendors and experience, allowing organisations to have mixed vendor fleets if they choose to. A mixed fleet can bring ancillary benefits with it, primarily because when you create a competitive environment you can drive better commercial, technical, and business outcomes.
Outcome-based contracts with external providers also ensure that the enterprise can achieve the required performance for a fixed fee during the contract length. This mitigates the increasing cost of staff year on year and removes the need to train staff to ensure that they are skilled in the latest resources and security needs.
