Let's Whiteboard It

The Challenge

Maintaining Secure and Reliable Government IT

Florida municipalities depend on technology to deliver public services, maintain records, support employees, communicate with residents, and keep government operations available. Many agencies must meet these expectations while managing infrastructure that was installed over multiple budget cycles and expanded as needs changed.

Legacy systems can limit scalability, visibility, and security. Government technology leaders must align infrastructure plans with approved budgets, procurement procedures, implementation schedules, and existing systems that cannot be interrupted.

#1 Digital City in its population category

The City of Weston adopted a Technology Strategic Plan and partnered with R2 to modernize its network using Cisco DNA Center, Cisco Identity Services Engine, Cisco StealthWatch, Catalyst switching, wireless infrastructure, and Software-Defined Access. R2 integrated the city's VPN, supported a fully virtual desktop environment, and now manages the city's network environment. During COVID-19, Weston transitioned to remote operations with minimal disruption and was later recognized as the #1 Digital City in its population category.

“We have the ability to reach into the R2 toolbox, which has all these diverse talents, when we need them. It gives us the ability to get second opinions on things.”

Ryan Fernandes

Director of Technology Services, The City of Weston
