We build win-win relationships birchesr.jpg

 

ENKI's philosophy is that our success rests on empowering our customers to win in their marketplace.  We know we have done our part in building the success of our customers if they refer us to their business and personal contacts as being the IT operations solution of choice.

 

ENKI is aware that our relationships with our customers are collaborative partnerships that must provide discernable value to each party.  We build these relationships upon an open exploration of our clients' needs and our capabilities, rather than attempting to force-fit their requirements into our service offerings. We are flexible, always listening for and looking for ways to extend our offerings to provide mutual benefit in the relationship.

This approach is reflected in the design of our premiere offering, the Computing Utility, which allows you to focus on delivering your application to your customers while we handle the operations side: providing computing as a reliable service. 

Our Vision

Our founder, Dave Durkee, has over 25 years of experience in the IT industry and has seen repeatedly that most companies simply don't have the background or desire to make IT a critical advantage for their organization.  As a result, he has developed a vision of Outsourced Operations as a Service delivered on a fully virtual computing platform, allowing companies to access highly scalable and reliable enterprise-class information technology without the usual cost and hassle that it implies.

Our Technology

ENKI's mission to provide computing as a utility service has led us to find the best-of-breed technology solutions to virtualizing computing, storage, and networking resources for our customers at the highest levels of reliability, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.  We have also picked technology partners and vendors that share our vision to help us deliver this service.

Our approach to sales and consulting

ENKI looks for a synergistic fit between us and our clients. We are committed to this approach and believe it is what will both attract and delight our customers, motivating them to refer us to their associates. As such, our initial meeting is intended allow us to get to know each other and investigate the technical challenges facing your organization. We commit to sharing our ideas freely throughout the partnership, and are convinced that this will bring about win-win relationships.  We see our customers as partners in the growth of our company, just as we hope to be partners in the growth of theirs.

How are we different?

ENKI knows that technology serves business rather than the business serving technology. All too often, companies acquire technology because of its wow-factor, instead of a solid understanding of how it will serve their business needs. ENKI proceeds by understanding and evaluating our customers' business needs before developing a technology recommendation and implementation plan. Our staff's extensive experience in both strategic and tactical levels of corporate management allows us to understand and serve the needs of our clients in a holistic manner.

Based upon our deep partnership with 3Tera, we are able to offer outsourced IT operations services that focus on delivering clear and understandable benefits to our client's businesses with outstanding value, rather than technology for technology's sake. 

ENKI is founded on a passionate commitment to operate in integrity. We commit to say what we mean and mean what we say. Our communications will always be honest: direct and to the point, with no hidden agendas or manipulation. We view our customers and vendors as partners, held in equality. Our company and all of its employees are accountable to maintain these standards of impeccable integrity.

ENKI gives back

The core of ENKI's business charter is to do business from the Heart.  Our win/win approach flows directly from this founding committment, which is to found all of our business relationships on the basis of equality.  In addition, ENKI serves as the incubator for a win/win collaborative community of customers, vendors, employees, and stakeholders which will over time develop organizational "technology" that will supplement traditional business approaches and serve as the blueprint for successful win/win businesses.  As part of our growth, we document our discoveries and will make them freely available to the public.

Heart-centered business also is conscious of the community and environment.  We are enthusiastic about open-source software and support it whenever possible.  In addition, ENKI strives to achieve maximum energy efficiency in accomplishing its business purpose.  As we grow, we will find additional opportunities to give back to the community; please watch our blog and let us know what you think.
