Estate · Support · Security
The whole estate, one supplier.
When the same team looks after the bespoke software and the laptops it runs on, problems stop falling between two contracts.
What we do
Managed IT services, in detail.
Service desk & end-user support
First-line through to third-line support for the people doing the work, with the escalation path ending at an engineer rather than a queue.
Networks & connectivity
Design, installation and management of wired and wireless networks, firewalls, VPNs and site-to-site connectivity across multiple locations.
Identity & workplace
Microsoft 365 and directory services, device management, onboarding and offboarding, email security and the access review that stops leavers keeping their keys.
Cyber security
Layered defences, patch discipline, endpoint protection, awareness training and incident response arrangements proportionate to your actual risk.
Procurement & lifecycle
Specification, sourcing, build and disposal of hardware, with a refresh cycle planned rather than triggered by failure.
IT strategy & budgeting
A forward view of what the estate needs and what it will cost, so that IT spend becomes a plan instead of a series of surprises.
What you get
Outcomes, not deliverables.
- Staff who can get on with their jobs
- A security posture you can describe to an auditor or an insurer
- Predictable IT spend with no emergency capital requests
- One relationship covering software and infrastructure alike
Good fit for
When people call us about this.
- Organisations with no in-house IT function, or one person carrying all of it
- Multi-site estates where standards have drifted apart
- Businesses facing a security questionnaire from a client or insurer
- Anyone already using us for software who would rather not manage a second supplier
