Connect every site, user, and cloud. Without the MPLS tax.
BTA designs and operates the wide-area network — SD-WAN, SASE, multi-site connectivity, and cloud on-ramps — replacing rigid topologies with policy-driven, secure connectivity.
Deep WAN expertise, delivered through the SIMPLE methodology and handed to a team that can run it.
Where wide-area networks fall behind.
- Risk 01
MPLS that no longer fits the business
Fixed-bandwidth, expensive lines that cannot keep up with cloud-bound traffic — and have no policy view of the workloads riding them.
- Risk 02
Cloud on-ramps as an afterthought
SaaS traffic backhauled through a data center to reach the internet — slow, brittle, and expensive.
- Risk 03
Security stops at the edge
Branch and remote-worker traffic protected unevenly, with policy that does not follow the user across sites.
How BTA delivers wide-area networking.
- 01
Assess
Map sites, links, traffic patterns, and the SaaS and cloud dependencies the WAN actually carries.
- 02
Design
Architect an SD-WAN or SASE topology with policy, security, and cloud on-ramps designed in — not bolted on.
- 03
Deploy
Stage the cutover by region or site so branches keep running through the change.
- 04
Hand off
Mentor your team on the new WAN so they own multi-site operations on Day-2.
What Wide-Area Networking delivers.
Concrete, customer-side results we measure to.
- SD-WANPolicy-driven, secure site connectivity
- DirectCloud on-ramps without backhaul
- ConsistentPolicy applied across every site
- ReversibleStaged regional cutover, no big-bang risk
We're architects who execute.
Three principles every BTA engagement runs on. Visible in the work itself.
We architect, deploy, and stay through Day-2.
Every engagement is end-to-end. We design the target environment, deploy it in stages, and remain on hand through the operational handoff.
We train your team to own the outcome.
Training is part of every engagement. By the close of an engagement, your operators can run, maintain, and defend the system to an auditor.
We measure success when your team runs it alone.
An engagement closes when your team is operating the solution without us in the room. SIMPLE methodology enforces this exit criterion on every project.
We meet you where you are.
Some teams want the full BTA delivery from architecture to handoff. Others bring us in for a single advisory window or a fully managed operations contract. Pick the model that fits and adjust as the business changes.
Consulting & Advisory
Strategy and senior guidance. Architecture reviews, technology assessments, and roadmap design for teams that own their own operations.

Questions buyers ask about Wide-Area Networking.
Direct answers from BTA architects who run these engagements.
What is the difference between Wide-Area Networking and SASE Migration?
Wide-Area Networking is the practice — designing and operating the WAN across SD-WAN, multi-site connectivity, and cloud on-ramps. SASE Migration is one specific engagement under it: moving secure-access workloads to a cloud-delivered model. The two pages cross-link.Do we have to give up MPLS entirely?
No. BTA designs to the environment. Many engagements run hybrid — MPLS for what it does well, SD-WAN for everything else — and migrate further over time as the business case clears.How do you handle the cutover without breaking branches?
Region-by-region or site-by-site. SIMPLE's Prove stage validates each wave under real traffic before cutover, and every wave is reversible if a problem surfaces.How does this connect to security?
Wide-area networking and security overlap heavily on this work. SD-WAN policy carries identity and intent; SASE binds the WAN to cloud-delivered security. The WAN practice connects directly to Zero Trust and microsegmentation under Protect.
