Quickstart programs · SIMPLE-driven

Cisco capability, in production in weeks.

Technology Adoption pairs Cisco platforms with BTA’s SIMPLE methodology for project-based, fixed-outcome rollout. Each Quickstart has a published Service Brief, a defined timeline, and a measurable success criterion.

How we deliver

Adoption engagements run on SIMPLE.

Six stages, each with defined deliverables and exit criteria. The same framework BTA has run on more than 1,000 projects.

  1. 01
    Start

    Confirm objectives and the operating team that will own the outcome.

  2. 02
    Immerse

    Audit current state. Identify high-impact gaps and dependencies.

  3. 03
    Map

    Design target architecture and validate against compliance and operating constraints.

  4. 04
    Prove

    Pilot in a contained scope. Verify zero production impact before scaling.

  5. 05
    Launch

    Stage rollout in waves. Reversible cutovers per scope.

  6. 06
    Evolve

    Hand off. Train operations. Define ongoing review cadence.

What changes for your team

Faster adoption. Fewer surprises.

  • Production in weeks

    Quickstart programs compress time from scope to launch with reversible cutovers and validated proofs of value.

  • Owned by your team

    Mentoring is built in. The customer team participates in deployment and owns Day-2 by handoff.

  • Built to extend

    Every Quickstart is a clean foundation for follow-on work. Continue with BTA on Advisory, Managed Services, or take it from there.

Adoption · FAQ

Common questions about Technology Adoption.

Direct answers to what most prospective clients want to know on a first call.

  • What is a Quickstart program?

    A Quickstart is a fixed-scope, fixed-outcome BTA engagement that delivers a Cisco capability into production in weeks. Each Quickstart maps to a Service Brief that defines deliverables, timeline, and acceptance criteria.
  • How is Technology Adoption different from a longer engagement?

    Technology Adoption focuses on getting a specific Cisco capability into production fast under SIMPLE. Longer engagements layer in additional scope (advisory, managed services, multi-platform integration). Most customers start with a Quickstart and decide whether to extend.
  • Which Cisco platforms are covered?

    Cisco Secure Workload (CSW), ACI, Hyperfabric, Nexus Dashboard, Cisco Secure Access, ISE, Cisco Secure Firewall, and XDR. Each has dedicated Quickstart Service Briefs.
  • Can a Quickstart roll into ongoing operations?

    Yes. After the Quickstart, customers commonly continue with BTA via Consulting & Advisory, Mentored Installs, or fully Managed Services. Pick the model that fits the team's Day-2 capacity.
