Selecting a Lenovo computer starts with its uses: travel, video meetings, business software, drawings or calculations. ThinkPad, ThinkCentre and ThinkStation families offer different formats. For an SME in French-speaking Switzerland, the aim is to avoid unnecessary specifications while retaining essential capabilities. A mobile employee should be able to reconnect to office displays and peripherals without accumulating adapters. A workstation should be assessed using the projects it will actually handle.
Compare ThinkPad configurations against travel patterns, applications and peripherals, then check charging, external displays and working conditions away from the office before choosing a consistent setup for your mobile staff.
Assess a ThinkCentre computer using everyday applications, available desk space and required connections, checking its exact product reference instead of assuming that every configuration in the range has the same capabilities.
Prepare a ThinkStation selection with representative projects from your technical team, then compare software requirements with the memory, storage and components actually included in the proposed configuration before committing to purchase.
Check Lenovo displays, docking stations and accessories against the selected computers to confirm connections, charging and desk arrangements before rolling out the same equipment to everyone in the relevant team.
Define a repeatable Lenovo setup with the necessary applications, data protection and settings, then ask a representative user to validate a pilot workstation before deploying that configuration across the relevant devices.
Keep Lenovo model references, warranty terms and repair information together, then plan replacement computers and future changes around business requirements, application support and the practical consequences of an unavailable workstation.
From initial scoping to ongoing support, the agreed work and each party’s responsibilities are defined with you before implementation.
Installation, configuration and support.
Protection of data and access.
Monitoring, updates and optimisation.
Backup strategy and disaster recovery planning.
Tenant management, backups and administration.
A local, responsive and available team.
We start with your teams’ needs, business applications and organisational constraints.

Share client files between colleagues, with appropriate access and documents that are easy to find.

Protect patient records and maintain the tools needed for consultations.

Find plans and files on site while keeping control of access for everyone involved.

Organise access for employees, elected representatives and volunteers, and make handovers easier when teams change.
Tools alone are not enough. Ongoing management, access and documentation need to remain clear over time.
Roles, permissions and protections suited to the agreed scope.
Identified dependencies, with backup and recovery arrangements to prepare.
Documented joiners, leavers and changes in responsibility.
Accessible configuration, licence and upcoming renewal records.
Uses, limitations and frequently asked questions: the points to clarify when preparing your project.
Two computers with similar names can differ in memory, display, ports or upgrade options. Lenovo's PSREF reference helps verify the platform and configuration. We compare this information with your applications and setup: docking station, display count, network, printers and storage requirements. For technical offices, AutoCAD requirements provide an additional check, alongside the add-ons and versions in use.
Setup can include inventory, relevant updates, application installation, device protection and data transfer. We test a pilot configuration with an employee before repeating it. Acceptance also checks accessories, charging and connections to existing tools. Our IT support can provide follow-up within the agreed scope, with a clear procedure for reporting an incident and finding warranty information.
Memory expansion, replaceable components and repair conditions vary by model. A manufacturer's warranty does not replace contingency arrangements when a computer is essential. We consider replacement equipment, data backups and reinstallation procedures. Replacement decisions should reflect the condition of the fleet and supported software, rather than only the age printed on an invoice.
Can we retain our existing docking stations? Check connections, power delivery and expected displays against the exact models, then test them together.
Do all computers need replacing at once? Not necessarily. An IT audit helps distinguish computers that need replacement, those requiring reconfiguration and those that can remain in service. The schedule takes critical applications and convenient changeover periods into account.
The official Lenovo PSREF reference brings together professional product specifications and links to detailed configurations. The ordering reference and serial number can then be used to check the characteristics and support conditions applicable to your equipment.
Review of your needs, comparison of options and clearly explained priorities.
Preparation, configuration, testing and coordination with the relevant providers.
Agreed support scope, documentation, licences and next steps.
