Engineer‑designed networks, predictable rollouts and hands‑on support, so you can land change quickly while stores keep trading. ![cash-icon-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/cash-icon-green-box.svg) ### Payments continuity Keep tills and pumps online during works with dual‑WAN, LTE/5G interim and policy‑based failover. Surveys confirm payment paths, guest networks and CCTV so cutovers don’t break trading and you can roll out faster with confidence. ![paper-icon-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/paper-icon-green-box.svg) ### Scope control for audits Validate network zones for tills, payment terminals, back-office systems, CCTV and guest Wi‑Fi. Survey packs include evidence and change notes that speed payment security reviews and keep scope tight. ![graph-icon-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/graph-icon-green-box.svg) ### Predictable change at scale Prove the pattern on site one, then repeat at pace. Engineer‑written change windows and staged waves make scale predictable. ## **Downtime hurts revenue**, loyalty and reputation When payments stall and queues build, sales vanish, net promoter score (NPS) drops and compliance risk rises. The upside: design for continuity and measurably improve customer experience while you scale change safely. 84   minutes That’s the average outage. 22   minutes Customer tolerance window before abandonment [ Start survey ](https://evolvebg.co.uk/site-survey#scrollTop) - ![cash-icon-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/cash-icon-green-box.svg) ### Payment & interruptions Target state: Dual‑/Multi‑WAN with sub‑second failover to protect transactions. - ![star-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/star-green-box.svg) ### Queue abandonment Target state: Seamless failover to maintain throughput at peak. - ![exclamation-mark-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/exclamation-mark-green-box.svg) ### Compliance exposure Target state: Policy‑enforced hard walls and audit‑ready evidence. - ![clock-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/clock-green-box.svg) ### Opening delays Target state: Interim links to guarantee day‑one trading. - ![settings-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/settings-green-box.svg) ### Slow incident resolution Target state: Single accountable NOC and MTTR in minutes, not hours. - ![tick-in-box-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/tick-in-box-green-box.svg) ### Store operations distraction Target state: Offload to managed runbooks and standard playbooks. - ![star-green-box](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/icons/coloured-bg/star-green-box.svg) ### Inconsistent brand experience Target state: Standardised kits and approved change windows. ## **Prove it fast**, without disrupting trading  Evidence at every step. Modernise in parallel, keep queues moving, and scale with confidence. - ### Audit ### Network audit baseline We baseline uptime, failover and compliance scope, define the target guest journey and performance targets, then agree on success metrics and the lowest‑risk proof path. - Quantified risk map tied to revenue and experience - Uptime and failover metrics captured from real sites - Clear PoC milestones and pass/fail gates; rollback rarely required - Compliance scope confirmed; segmentation gaps made explicit - Underlay options across ISPs/alt‑nets for coverage and price/performance - ### Dual-Run PoC ### Dual-run PoC beside live trading Prove resilience in parallel. Segmentation, payments, CCTV and Guest Wi‑Fi run safely alongside production. - Seconds‑level failover validated under real traffic - Payments continuity and CCTV persistence demonstrated - Guest Wi‑Fi isolated from EPOS/back‑of‑house to compliance standards - Iterate policies to lift throughput and reduce drops - ### Rollout ### Predictable rollout at scale Blueprints, staged kits and out‑of‑hours cutovers scale what worked in PoC, keeping queues moving and teams focused on customers. - Wave plans with SLA windows; rollback paths defined - Day‑one trading protected with LTE/5G interim links - One SLA across underlay/overlay and field engineering - Estate‑wide reporting: uptime, MTTR and compliance posture - In‑house staging and kitting (6,000 sq.ft) to shorten waves and de‑risk cutovers [ Start survey ](https://evolvebg.co.uk/site-survey#scrollTop) ## Learn from businesses like yours [ See all case studies ](https://evolvebg.co.uk/case-studies) ![eg-group-logo](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/logos/colored/eg-group-logo.svg) Read More ### Powering EG Group's global network: Simplified management across 10 countries ![Powering EG Group's global network: Simplified management across 10 countries](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/pages/blog/eg-group-hq.webp?width=1200&height=675&name=eg-group-hq.webp) 6,000+ sites across 10 countries Read More ### Direct data centre integrations for secure multi-site connectivity ![Direct data centre integrations for secure multi-site connectivity](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/pages/blog/eiffel-tower-waves.webp?width=1200&height=675&name=eiffel-tower-waves.webp) 250+ Global payment hosts Read More ### Enhancing the museum experience: Guest Wi-Fi for 3 million annual visitors ![Enhancing the museum experience: Guest Wi-Fi for 3 million annual visitors](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/pages/blog/museum-of-liverpool.webp?width=1200&height=675&name=museum-of-liverpool.webp) 7 venues connected with guest Wi-Fi infrastructure. ![freightlink-logo](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/vectors/logos/colored/freightlink-logo.webp?width=40&height=40&name=freightlink-logo.webp) Read More ### Scaling Freightlink: Cloud migration for growth and remote work ![Scaling Freightlink: Cloud migration for growth and remote work](https://evolvebg.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/website/graphics/OPGs/pages/blog/fl-cairnryan.webp?width=1200&height=675&name=fl-cairnryan.webp) 33% Reduction in monthly support tickets ## Frequently asked questions ### How quickly can you survey?
