Spectrum Medical Imaging's Strategic IT Transformation
Spectrum Medical Imaging, a renowned independent radiology practice, operates across various locations in Eastern, Southern, and South-Western Sydney. Renowned for their cutting-edge imaging services, Spectrum encountered challenges with their in-house, small IT team, prompting them to seek assistance from The Missing Link. This case study explores the comprehensive IT solutions provided by The Missing Link, underscoring the significant impacts on Spectrum's operations and the evolution of their partnership.
Navigating the Digital Shift
Spectrum initially engaged with The Missing Link for general IT support, struggling with a range of issues due to their limited internal IT capabilities. A primary concern was their Active Directory (AD) setup, which was identified as requiring substantial improvement. Furthermore, Spectrum had a strategic business objective to transition from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 (M365), aiming to enhance its operational efficiency and collaboration.
Safeguarding the Future
The Missing Link commenced this collaboration with a detailed AD review, identifying and rectifying various issues to align the environment with best practices. Following this, The Missing Link integrated a managed backup service under SmartPROTECT, bolstering Spectrum's data security and recovery processes.
The migration of 380 users to M365 marked a pivotal phase in this partnership. The Missing Link managed the entire process, from scoping the project and procuring suitable licenses to executing the migration with thorough planning and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) involving key user groups. This transition was achieved within the set timelines, showcasing our thorough planning and execution capabilities.
“The personalised attention and tailored solutions provided by The Missing Link have been invaluable to our organisation. They tailored strategies to our unique needs, optimising our IT infrastructure and streamlining our operations efficiently. Their proactive system management has pre-empted issues, saving time, money, and hassle.”

The Road Ahead
The relationship between Spectrum and The Missing Link further evolved with The Missing Link assuming management of Spectrum's network, significantly enhancing the robustness and reliability of Spectrum’s network infrastructure. Plans involve expanding the managed backup environment and broader infrastructure management of Spectrum's server farm. Additionally, The Missing Link is in the initial stages of offering incident response services via our Security services, further strengthening Spectrum’s IT resilience.
