Tamara Kapanadze
Tamara agrees scope, names the systems that will be sampled, and signs the ledger. She spent years as an operations lead in Imereti before opening this practice.
The practice
Who keeps the ledgers in Kutaisi
The office on Tamar Mepe Street is a drawing room for other people’s copies. We learned the work in machine rooms and municipal archives, not in a product studio.
Backupvectorgrid Analytics began when Tamara Kapanadze was asked, after a winter flood near the Rioni, whether the town’s payroll copy was on the crate that left on Thursdays. The software said yes. The crate held an older month. The argument that followed was not about features. It was about a picture nobody had drawn.
The practice still lives in that gap. We read job reports, watch one restore when we are allowed, walk to the room where crates sit, and draw the disagreement. Georgia is small enough that we can be on a floor in Kutaisi, Zugdidi, or a hillside warehouse in the same week. We work in English because many of the operators we meet already keep their runbooks that way, and because the directors who sign cheques often do too.
We are not a vendor. When a client asks us to “just fix the jobs,” we name a colleague who still does that work, and we go back to the page. Our values are narrow: sample what you claim, time what you restore, and do not invent a number that was not in the room.
The office is on Level 10, 42 Tamar Mepe Street, Kutaisi 4600. Visitors who bring a courier book are given a table by the window. Visitors who bring only a slogan are given tea and a list of questions.
Who you meet
Giorgi Tskhvedadze
Giorgi sits with the operator, times the restore, and refuses to write a green mark for a job he has not opened. He travels with a notebook and a cheap stopwatch.
Nino Beridze
Nino turns the floor notes into columns, maps, and ember marks. She trained in print layout and still prefers a page you can annotate in pencil beside the cabinet.
