Data and Operations
Managed IT
Defined service levels, proactive maintenance and a support team that knows your estate.
The business problem
What this solution addresses
Small internal teams spend their days reacting. Patching slips, monitoring gaps go unnoticed, backups are assumed to work, and there is never time for improvement.
Day-to-day responsibility for keeping systems available, patched, monitored and supported.
Outcome-led
Scoped around the result you need, with success measures agreed before delivery starts.
Delivered in phases
Usable value within the first quarter, rather than at the end of a long programme.
Secure by design
Access control, encryption and audit built into the design rather than added afterwards.
What is included
What Managed IT includes
The components of a typical engagement. Scope is agreed per client rather than fixed.
Monitoring and alerting
Availability, performance and capacity monitoring with defined response paths.
Patch and vulnerability management
Scheduled patching with testing, and prioritised response to critical advisories.
Backup and recovery
Backup operation with regular restore testing, not merely successful backup jobs.
Incident management
Triage, resolution and post-incident review against agreed severity levels.
User support
Service desk for application and infrastructure issues within agreed hours.
Estate documentation
Maintained inventory, runbooks and architecture records.
What changes
Benefits you should expect
Written as outcomes rather than as figures we cannot substantiate for your organisation.
Availability you can rely on
Proactive monitoring and maintenance reduce unplanned outages.
Predictable cost
A fixed monthly fee replaces irregular emergency spending.
Internal capacity released
Your team works on projects instead of firefighting.
Restores that actually work
Recovery is tested regularly rather than assumed.

Questions & answers
Questions about Managed IT
Cannot find what you need? Our team responds to technical and commercial questions within one business day.
Ask a questionMore often we complement it: taking on monitoring, patching, out-of-hours cover and routine support so internal staff can focus on projects and business partnering. Full responsibility is available where that is what you need.
Business-hours and 24/7 coverage are both available, agreed per system according to business criticality rather than applied uniformly across the estate.
