IBM i Security Project
When the pandemic hit, and stay-at-home orders were issued, many companies, including our client, transitioned to remote work. With a fully remote workforce, our client wanted to ensure that remote connections to office PCs were secure on the IBM server. Briteskies was hired as IBM i and Security professionals to help double-check that appropriate security measures were being taken.
IBM i Managed Services
After their on-staff RPG developer left the company, Wheeling & Lake Erie Railway began searching for a replacement, but finding a senior developer within commutable distance to their location was proving to be nearly impossible. Wheeling & Lake Erie Railway reached out to Briteskies to explore the possibility of outsourcing development for their IBM i / AS400 to fill the gap left by their developer leaving. 
IBM i Textile Care Development
The immediate issue was that the IT Director was planning to retire. In addition, the company’s outsourced developer was also retiring. The company also wanted to take its infrastructure and move it off-site to a data center.
