The layer everything else runs on.

Laminin builds and holds up the infrastructure behind Uganda's banks, government agencies and telecom operators — servers, networks, power and surveillance on the ground, with the security, administration and support that keep them worth what you paid.

Select a unit

Every rack we hand over is labelled, patched, tested and documented before sign-off.

Hardware we design, supply and install

One contractor from bill of quantities to commissioning, so nobody is left arguing about whose equipment failed.

Rack rows, power, cooling and cabling planned together — capacity you can add to without rebuilding the room.
01

Servers and storage

Rack and tower servers sized to the workload, virtualisation hosts, backup targets and RAID-protected storage — specified, racked, imaged and burned in before they carry production load.

02

Network and structured cabling

Core and access switching, routing, wireless, fibre backbone and certified copper cabling. Every drop is tested, labelled and recorded on an as-built schedule you keep.

03

Power, cooling and data rooms

Rack-mount and standalone UPS, generator changeover, precision cooling, raised floors and environmental monitoring — the parts of the room that decide whether the rest survives a bad week on the grid.

04

Surveillance and access control

IP camera systems, recorders sized for real retention periods, biometric and card access, turnstiles and control-room screens — installed as one system rather than boxes bought separately.

Endpoints and branch rollouts

Laptops, desktops, thin clients, printers and peripherals supplied, imaged to your standard build and deployed branch by branch with asset tags and handover records.

Migration and decommissioning

Moving live systems between sites or into new hardware, with cutover windows planned around your business hours and a tested way back if the window closes badly.

What we put on top of it

Modern hardware is only half the job. These are the capabilities we deploy across it, whether the equipment came from us or was already in the room.

Threat detection and response

Monitoring that learns what normal looks like on your network, flags what is not, and puts a named engineer on it rather than an email nobody opens.

Biometric access control

Fingerprint, facial and card readers tied to one access policy across doors, server rooms and turnstiles, with audit trails your compliance team can actually pull.

Zero-trust segmentation

Networks cut into zones so a compromised branch device cannot walk into the core, with rules documented and reviewed instead of accumulating quietly for years.

Services that run past handover

Most of our work is with clients we installed for years ago. These are the seven things we are contracted for.

IT security

Perimeter and endpoint protection, hardening, patch discipline and incident response — for infrastructure we installed and for whatever was already there.

Server administration

Day-to-day operation, capacity and performance monitoring, backup verification and maintenance windows agreed rather than sprung on you.

Project management

Scope, budget, vendor coordination and reporting, run by managers who have delivered inside telecom and financial services programmes.

IT policy development

Policies matched to how your organisation actually works, written to stand up to regulator and internal audit review.

User support

First and second line support for staff, with response targets agreed in advance and a ticket history you can audit.

Data analytics

System and business data turned into dashboards and reporting that management will use rather than file.

Procurement and supply

Sourcing through our distribution partners with lead times stated up front, equipment held until the site is ready, and warranties registered in your name.

How a deployment runs

The same six stages on a single rack or a fifty-site rollout. You know at any point what has been signed, what has landed and what is live.

Stage 01

Site survey

We walk the room, measure power, check earthing, photograph cable routes and tell you what will not work before you buy it.

Stage 02

Design and BOQ

A rack elevation, a network diagram and an itemised bill of quantities with part numbers you can take to any procurement committee.

Stage 03

Procurement

Sourcing through our partners, with lead times stated up front and equipment held in our stores until the site is ready.

Stage 04

Installation

Racking, cabling, dressing, labelling and power-up, done in agreed windows so the working day is not what pays for it.

Stage 05

Commissioning

Link tests, failover tests, retention tests and load checks, then a handover pack: as-builts, serials, warranties and credentials.

Stage 06

Support

Ongoing cover under an agreed SLA, with a spares strategy, firmware discipline and a named engineer who knows your site.

Who we work with

Government, banking, telecom and fintech — sectors where an outage is a public event.
