Hyperconvergence
Collapse servers, storage and networking into one software-defined platform. Fewer moving parts, fewer vendors, fewer places for things to go wrong.

Infrastructure your organization can run on
Since 1989 we have helped Southern California enterprises, agencies and school districts consolidate their data centers, protect what sits on them, and move to the cloud at a pace that makes sense. We treat that as a relationship rather than a project list — the same team stays on an account rather than handing it off once the install is done, across regional centers from Los Angeles to the Inland Empire, on site when the job needs it and remote when it does not.

Our solutions
Nine ways we take work off your IT team
Grouped into infrastructure, security & compliance, and cloud & AI — the three areas most IT budgets are actually organised around right now. They tend to arrive together, and they are usually cheaper to solve together.
Desktop & Application Virtualization VDI
Run one standard desktop image from the data center to any device, anywhere — patched once, secured centrally, provisioned in minutes.
Read more →Data Archiving
Long-term retention that satisfies auditors and still returns a file in seconds when somebody genuinely needs it.
Read more →Data Protection & Reliability
Replication and recovery designed around how your data is actually used, with recovery targets you set and then test against.
Read more →Disaster Recovery
RTO and RPO defined in hours and minutes, not left as a slide nobody has priced. A plan you can actually run when it matters.
Read more →Layered Security
Controls at the perimeter, the network, the endpoint and the data itself, so no single failure becomes the whole story.
Read more →Cybersecurity Compliance
Readiness work for CMMC, HIPAA, CJIS, FERPA and PCI — the controls and evidence an assessor will actually ask for.
Read more →Unified Cloud Computing
A migration plan with the arithmetic done first, so cloud spending becomes a decision rather than a surprise on the invoice.
Read more →AI Infrastructure & Readiness
The compute, data and governance foundation a model actually needs, sized to what you will really run — not what a vendor hopes you will buy.

And the people to go with them
Equipment is the easy part. Most of what customers actually ask for is judgment about which equipment, in what order, and who answers the phone when it misbehaves.
Consulting
Infrastructure decisions come around every few years for you and every week for us. We lay out the realistic options with the trade-offs attached.
Read more →Unified IT Support
One number, one team, and somebody who owns the problem until your people are working again — on site or securely from here.
Read more →Help Desk Support
Remote help for small businesses without an IT department of their own — a call or a ticket away, not a truck roll.
Read more →Cloud
Work out what should move, what should stay, and what each option costs, before anything is committed.
Read more →Repair
Authorized repair for HP, Lenovo and other manufacturers. Desktops, laptops and printers — walk in or call for an appointment.

Four steps, in this order, every time
The sequence matters more than any single stage. Skipping the second one is how organizations end up owning equipment that does not fit.
Understand the requirement
We start with what the organization is trying to accomplish and what constrains it — budget cycle, compliance, the systems that cannot go down. The technology plan comes after that conversation, not before it.
Prove it before you buy it
Where a decision is large or hard to reverse, we set the solution up in our Solution Center and let your team test it against realistic conditions, alongside the vendor and our engineers.
Implement around your operations
Work is sequenced so daily operations keep running through the project. Migrations happen in your maintenance windows. Nothing goes live that has not been tested first.
Stay reachable afterwards
The people who planned the work are the people who did it, and they are still there when something changes. Some customers move onto unified support; others just call when they need us.
Markets
Who we build for
The technology overlaps. The constraints do not — a school district and a manufacturer are solving different problems with the same equipment.
01
Healthcare & Life Sciences
Uptime on clinical systems and retention rules that do not forgive a missed backup.
02Banking & Financial Services
Transaction systems where minutes of downtime are a reportable event, under PCI and regulator scrutiny.
03Retail & E-Commerce
Infrastructure that has to hold during the four weeks a year when it actually matters most.
04Manufacturing & Industrial
Plant-floor systems and back-office IT that were never designed to share a network, now forced to.
05Government & Public Sector
Retention mandates, audit obligations and procurement timelines private organizations do not carry.
06Education
Districts, colleges and universities working inside funding cycles and a student data privacy standard of their own.
07Energy & Utilities
Infrastructure where an outage is a public event, not an internal one, and the security bar reflects that.
08Media & Entertainment
Storage and rendering workloads measured in terabytes a day, with archives nobody can afford to lose.
Since 1989Information Technology Solutions PartnerAbout FCSI
A partner, not a product catalog
We have been doing this in Southern California long enough to have deployed several generations of technology that were going to change everything, and to have helped customers off the ones that did not.
Our account managers and engineers start with your requirements and your constraints, then build the technology plan from there. It is why our recommendations differ between organizations that look identical on paper, and it is most of the reason customers stay with us.

Why organizations stay with us
Rated 4.9 out of 5 on Google. Every review there is posted independently — none of it is collected or curated by us.
Since 1989
Thirty-seven years operating continuously in Southern California, through several complete turnovers of the underlying technology.
Commercial, government and education
Delivered projects across all three, each carrying different procurement rules, funding cycles and compliance obligations.
Vendor-neutral by design
Long-standing relationships with the major infrastructure and security vendors, and no obligation to recommend any of them.
Common questions
Before you get in touch
The things people usually want to know before the first conversation.
Do you only work with organizations in Southern California?
Our engineers are based in Yorba Linda and most on-site work is regional, which is why we talk about Southern California. Remote support and cloud work are not limited by geography, so if the project does not need hands on hardware, distance is rarely the deciding factor.
Do we have to replace everything at once?
No, and we would usually advise against it. Most engagements are phased around what is closest to end of life or causing the most pain. A consolidation that takes three budget cycles but never interrupts operations is a better outcome than one that finishes faster and breaks something important.
Are you tied to particular vendors?
We hold long-standing relationships with the major infrastructure and security vendors, but we are not obliged to recommend any of them. The recommendation reflects what fits your environment, and we will show you the reasoning rather than just the conclusion.
How does a project usually start?
With a conversation about requirements rather than products — what the organization is trying to do, what is in the way, and what has to keep running. Where a solution needs proving before you commit, we can set it up in the Solution Center and let your team test it against realistic conditions.
Can you work within public procurement rules?
Yes. A large part of our work is with school districts, community colleges and public agencies, so bid processes, funding cycles and audit requirements are familiar ground rather than an obstacle we discover partway through.
What happens once the project is finished?
Whatever you want to happen. Some customers take the environment back in-house and call us when they need us. Others move onto unified support, where we cover the devices, software and infrastructure under one relationship. The people who planned the work stay reachable either way.
Tell us what you are running
Most conversations start with an inventory and a problem. Bring both and we will tell you, honestly, whether we are the right people for it.
