If your response to this question is that information, security, and communications infrastructure is not very important to the success of your business, it probably means that you don’t fully understand what these terms mean.  Perhaps it would help if we framed the discussion differently:

• Is it important to you that the phones in your business ring when customers attempt to call you?
• Is it important that your business environment be safe and free from crime?
• If day-to-day operations in your business are disrupted by technical glitches, would your business lose money?
• Are you interested in reducing losses from employee theft?
• Does your business have important assets that need to be protected?
• Is it important that your customers and employees have good cell reception and high-speed wireless internet access in your place of business?
• Do you have any proprietary information that needs to be protected and monitored?
• Do you have a need to remotely access and control data?

All of the issues raised by these questions fall under the umbrella of information, security, and communications infrastructure.  The importance of these systems and the technical nature of their design, installation, and maintenance requires the expertise of a specialized contractor.  These contractors are sometimes referred to as ICT contractors (Information and Communications Technology), data cabling contractors, or structured cabling contractors.  Working with one of these specialized contractors can save your business significant amounts of time, money, and frustration—but only if you choose the right contractor.
