Switzerland first

Smart Hands in Switzerland

A cleared engineer in the cage when remote access is not enough — Swiss facilities first, EU rooms on the same ticket process.

Smart Hands is the core of Simaks work in Switzerland. Banks, cloud providers, MSPs, and colo operators call when a pair of hands must follow a method of procedure: reseat a line card, photograph a PDU, walk a loop with the NOC, or meet a courier at the loading dock.

We brief the engineer on your access list, badge process, and change window before they travel. Work is vendor-neutral. You keep the hardware standard; we execute the steps and hand back notes, photos, and a close record.

Dispatch is staffed around the clock. In Zurich, Geneva, and Basel, planned Smart Hands visits are typically scheduled the same day. Emergency tickets are triaged against the nearest qualified engineer, not whoever happens to be free.

What we do on site

  • Escorted and unescorted cage access
  • Rack & stack, rail kits, labelling
  • FRU swap and parts meet-me
  • Console, loopback, and link tests
  • Power, PDU, and visual checks
  • Media, tape, and drive handling
  • Photo evidence and as-builts
  • NOC bridge while the work happens

Why this matters in Switzerland

Swiss rooms are picky about badges, visitor logs, and the nFADP. We treat Zurich the same way we treat a regulated cage in Frankfurt or London: MOP first, then hands.
