Gain customized deployment with solutions that are ready to plug in and go IT organizations are typically challenged to get newly procured systems— particularly in widespread geographic locations—up and running as quickly as possible when they have limited staffing that needs to focus on higher business priorities. Lenovo Factory Integration Services offers pre-configured, pre-integrated solutions built and tested by skilled Lenovo technicians to meet specific needs. From standard racks to custom builds, each solution is configured with the highest levels of quality before it arrives at your site. Factory Integration Services helps eliminate the need for a third-party vendor to load your software and deliver correct, complete, and ready-to-run solutions.

Streamline Technology Deployment Getting the right system to the right place at the right time can be a delicate balancing act requiring complex project management at multiple locations. Factory Integration Services helps streamline this process. You can order, plan, customize, and rapidly deploy technology solutions from one source. By having Lenovo professionals pre-configure, pre-integrate, and test solutions in our factory, your systems quickly become operational. Lenovo experts apply fieldtested best practices and recommend verified software to help avoid trial-and-error iterations that can increase costs and delay production.

Reduce Cost and Minimize Risk Lenovo Factory Integration Services helps ensure optimum performance and platform consistency through expert engineering and efficient processes. We automate provisioning to your organization’s specification, and provide a single, hardware-independent image. As a result, you can dramatically reduce installation costs, minimize risk, and accelerate time to value.
