What we do

One partner for the whole stack.

Most MSPs sell you a ticket queue. We take ownership of the messy bits — the licences, the ageing server, the firewall nobody has logged into since 2021.

Service desk

Real humans on the phone, 24/7. Tier 1 to Tier 3, onboarding, offboarding and asset tracking included — not billed as extras.

15-min SLAUK & US hoursOnsite when needed

Cloud & Microsoft 365

Migrations that don't ruin a weekend, tenant hardening, Azure landing zones and a monthly sweep of licences you're paying for but nobody uses.

M365AzureEntra ID

Cyber security & compliance

Managed detection, endpoint protection, email filtering and phishing training. We'll also get you through Cyber Essentials or ISO 27001 without the theatre.

MDRZero trustISO 27001

Backup & continuity

Immutable cloud backups, tested restores and a disaster recovery runbook that actually names people and phone numbers. Quarterly restore tests, not annual promises.

Veeam3-2-1-1Quarterly DR tests

Networks & connectivity

Firewalls, switching, Wi-Fi that works in the meeting room, and circuits that don't fall over when the whole office is on Teams at once.

Devices & lifecycle

Procurement without the markup games, zero-touch imaging, MDM, patching and certified disposal. A new starter is productive before their first coffee.

How we work

Boring, predictable IT. On purpose.

No heroics, no 3am surprises you didn't cause. We start with an honest baseline, fix what's actually dangerous, then keep the lights on while the roadmap happens.

  • Named account engineer — not a rotating queue
  • Documentation you own, in your own tenant
  • Quarterly business review with your vCIO
  • 90-day exit. We'd rather earn it than trap you.
01

Audit & baseline

Two weeks, fixed fee — credited back if you sign. We map every device, licence, admin account and quiet risk.

02

Stabilise

Backups, MFA, patching and the firewall rules that were "temporary" in 2019. Critical gaps close first.

03

Run & improve

A named pod answers your tickets, owns the documentation and brings a monthly service review you can actually read.

04

Scale with you

Office moves, acquisitions, new compliance regimes. The plan changes; the accountability doesn't.

Sectors

We know your compliance officer by first name.

Different sectors, different regulators. The fundamentals are the same; the paperwork isn't. Here's where we do our best work.

Legal

Matter-centric document systems, legal aid compliance and a helpdesk that understands "the brief is due at 9am".

Healthcare

GDPR, DSPT and clinical systems. Locked-down endpoints without locking out the clinicians who need them.

Finance

FCA operational resilience, immutable records and phishing simulations your partners will remember.

Manufacturing

Shop-floor Wi-Fi, OT segregation and MRP systems that predate everyone currently in the room.

Nonprofit

Microsoft 365 grants, tight budgets and trustees who want a straight answer about risk.

Education

Safeguarding-aware filtering, shared devices and September onboarding at scale.

Support & questions

The questions we get before the first invoice.

Still deciding? Ask an engineer, not a salesperson. You'll get a straight answer, even if it's "you don't need us yet".

Are you just an outsourced helpdesk?
No. The desk is the visible part. Behind it sits the monitoring, patching, backup, security and vCIO work that stops the tickets existing in the first place. Roughly 70% of what we do is preventative.
What actually happens at 2am if something breaks?
An on-call engineer is paged, not a voicemail. We triage, contain and either fix it or wake you with a clear decision to make. You get a written timeline by 9am.
Do we have to rip out our current tools?
Rarely. We'll work with what you have where it's sensible and tell you plainly when something costs more to keep than to replace. No forced migrations to hit a sales target.
How long does onboarding take?
Two weeks for the audit and stabilisation, then we're running. Larger or messier estates can take six weeks. You'll have a named engineer from day one.
What does "unlimited support" actually mean?
It means we don't meter your tickets. There's a fair-use policy for full ERP rollouts and similar project work — but day-to-day support never runs out mid-month.
Are you insured and certified?
ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, £5m professional indemnity and £10m public liability. Certificates available before you sign anything.
Next step

Let's find the gaps before someone else does.
