Konect Groupe — Insights https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/ Expert publications from Konect Groupe: method, trade-offs and the cost of common mistakes in power, security, networks, governance and software. en Konect SARL The load test almost nobody runs https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/essai-en-charge/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/essai-en-charge/ A generator started off-load every month proves that it starts. It does not prove that it will carry the site's load, nor that the transfer will happen without anything stopping. Power Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Access control is worth what the review of its rights is worth https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/politique-de-droits/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/politique-de-droits/ Badges are issued in minutes and withdrawn rarely. After three years the list of authorised people no longer describes the organisation it is meant to protect. Security Wed, 26 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Interoperability is not obtained by writing it into the specification https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/interoperabilite/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/interoperabilite/ Two systems exchange only if someone holds the mandate to settle the format, the cadence and the responsibility for the data. That mandate is assigned before development starts. Software Mon, 24 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Migrating the data costs more than the software that will receive it https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/reprise-de-donnees/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/reprise-de-donnees/ The most underestimated line in an application replacement project is not development. It is the real condition of the existing data, which nobody measured before committing. Software Fri, 21 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT What a 99.9% availability commitment does not say https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/taux-de-disponibilite/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/taux-de-disponibilite/ The figure is comparable from one offer to the next. What it covers is not: the measurement window, the excluded scope and the remedy alone determine its real reach. Networks Wed, 19 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT A backup link sharing the same duct backs up nothing https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/lien-de-secours/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/lien-de-secours/ The redundancy of an access circuit is judged on the physical route of the cable and on the identity of the carrier, not on the number of contracts signed. Networks Mon, 17 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Write the exit plan before the first delivery https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/plan-de-sortie/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/plan-de-sortie/ Reversibility is not negotiated at the point of departure. It is settled during framing, while the balance of power is still even and the clause costs nothing. Governance Fri, 14 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT The number of cameras measures nothing https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/nombre-de-cameras/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/nombre-de-cameras/ A video surveillance installation is judged on the chain that runs from detection to decision. The number of viewpoints is only one parameter, and rarely the binding one. Security Tue, 28 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT Five requirements a procurement team should place on an integrator https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/exiger-d-un-integrateur/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/exiger-d-un-integrateur/ Most tenders check technical capability and financial standing. They almost always omit the five points that determine what the contract actually costs. Governance Thu, 09 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT Sizing backup power without being wrong by a factor of two https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/bilan-de-charge/ https://konectgroupe.com/en/insights/bilan-de-charge/ A measured load balance costs four weeks. Estimated from nameplates, it almost always leads to oversizing — and oversizing is paid for twice. Power Thu, 18 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT
