Managed IT Services
We operate as your external IT department. We take on the network, workstations, servers, Microsoft 365, backup and security, with one point of contact who knows your infrastructure. We do not sell technical hours: we take responsibility for availability, security and documentation of the estate.
Who it is for
- Businesses that have outgrown managing IT themselves
- Companies that do not want to hire an IT manager and technicians
- Organisations with many systems and no unified management
- Boards that want one accountable party instead of five suppliers
When we are NOT the right choice
- If an internal IT team exists and only overflow hours are needed
- If there is no appetite to change what generates repeat incidents
- If responsibility is expected without access and documentation
PROCESS
The process
Indicative times from signature of the proposal, subject to hardware availability. Every project is shaped to the size and the needs of the client.
01Infrastructure audit
We record workstations, servers, network, licences, providers and backups, and rank the findings by severity.Time: 2-5 working daysDeliverable: Full inventory and risk report
02Transition plan
We agree what is fixed immediately, what is scheduled and what stays as it is, with a clear cost against each action.Time: With the quotationDeliverable: Priority order and timeline
03Onboarding and documentation
We deploy support and monitoring tooling, document credentials and contracts, and define communication channels.Time: 5-10 working daysDeliverable: Equipment, licence and access registers
04Day to day operation
Every request is recorded so a history exists. One person knows your estate, so the conversation does not restart from scratch each time.Time: OngoingDeliverable: One point of contact and a request history
05Review and planning
A periodic review covering incidents, response times, cost and what needs upgrading in the period ahead.Time: Per reporting periodDeliverable: Management report and upgrade plan

From practice
The turning point for most businesses of 20 to 100 people is the same: IT has become too large for someone to handle as a side duty, and too small to justify hiring a team.
At that stage the problem is not technical, it is ownership: five suppliers and nobody accountable for the whole. The managed model replaces that gap with a single point of contact who knows the entire estate and answers for it.
Prerequisites
- A completed initial infrastructure audit
- Administrative access to the systems we take on
- Agreement on the fixes assessed as critical
- A nominated contact on your side
Cost
Charged monthly based on users, devices and SLA level. The model is deliberately independent of incident volume, so that both sides share the same interest in the infrastructure not breaking.
We do not publish a price list. Every proposal follows a site survey and separates hardware from labour.
What moves the cost
- Number of users and devices
- Number of systems and sites under management
- SLA level and availability requirements
- Condition of the estate at the point of transition
Frequently asked questions
How does this differ from a support contract?
Do we lose control of our infrastructure?
What if something is already in poor condition?
Do you also cover security systems?
