CxO Advisory Services
We advise executive management on long-term IT strategy, and on the medium-term wins along the way.
What we Offer
DCS1 is a Singapore firm for IT consulting, management-systems assurance, and custom hosting.
Shouldn't IT start paying back?
Management Systems
We help you judge whether IT is aligned with the business, how to measure that, and what to benchmark it against.
Certifications & Assurance
We advise clients from implementation, through remediation, to ISO audits. The work covers Fortune Global 500 companies and smaller enterprises.
Niche Technical Services
We listen to you rather than to your vendors, and deliver the quick wins your managers need while they still need them.
Unique Hosting Services
We provide hosting for one-off needs that a standard plan does not cover, including IPv4 and IPv6 address blocks and 10G connectivity to SGIX and others.
Global Internet Research Partnerships
We host Singapore's first public IPv6 NTP servers. Equipment here serves CAIDA Ark, RIPE Atlas, NLNOG Ring, and we act as BGP beacons for RIPE RIS and the University of Oregon Route Views project. If you have an interesting project, we can provide RIPE Atlas credits.
