Our Process

01. Onboarding

The Onboarding Phase ensures a seamless transition of your IT environment to our management, laying the groundwork for proactive service. We begin with initial discovery and a comprehensive infrastructure audit to understand your systems and identify vulnerabilities. We then customise the Service Level Agreement (SLA) to your specific needs before deploying our essential tools and agents. Finally, we create detailed documentation and establish baseline performance metrics for effective ongoing management.

02. Monitoring

Once your IT environment is onboarded, Phase 2 focuses on 24/7 system tracking to detect and address issues before they impact your business. Our advanced remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools continuously surveil your entire infrastructure – including servers, networks, endpoints, applications, and cloud services. This proactive surveillance allows us to identify anomalies, performance bottlenecks, and potential vulnerabilities in real-time. When an alert is triggered, our expert team is immediately notified, enabling us to investigate and resolve issues, often before they cause downtime or disrupt your operations. This ensures maximum uptime and minimises the risk of business interruption.

03. Maintenance

This phase focuses on proactive measures, ensuring your systems are consistently updated, secure, and performing optimally, which significantly minimises reactive issues. This involves comprehensive patch management, where we regularly deploy and, where possible, test operating system and application updates across all managed devices.

We also conduct system optimisation and performance tuning by reviewing configurations, cleaning up temporary files, and adjusting resource allocations to eliminate bottlenecks. Crucially, we perform regular backup and disaster recovery verification and periodic data recovery tests to ensure your business continuity readiness.

This also includes consistent antivirus/anti-malware updates and scans, alongside applying firmware updates to hardware components for stability and security. We engage in proactive issue resolution, addressing minor problems detected through monitoring before they escalate. Optionally, we can provide vendor management, acting as a liaison with third-party providers for support and updates.

04. Support

We address all reactive IT needs, guaranteeing swift response and expert resolution for any challenges your team encounters. This phase is anchored by our dedicated helpdesk and ticketing system, allowing end-users to submit requests efficiently via phone, email, or client portal.

We offer both remote and on-site support, providing quick diagnosis and resolution for common issues remotely, while dispatching technicians for hardware failures or complex problems requiring a physical presence. Our experts focus on comprehensive troubleshooting and issue resolution, diagnosing and fixing software, hardware, network, and application problems, strictly adhering to defined SLA response and resolution times.

This phase also covers user account management, resolving connectivity issues, and providing desktop and application support for end-users. We maintain clear escalation management paths to senior engineers or specialised teams for any complex or critical incidents, ensuring all IT challenges are met with appropriate expertise.

05. Reporting

Reporting & Strategic Reviews focuses on transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement, offering crucial insights into your IT performance and strategic guidance.

We provide regular performance reports (monthly or quarterly) detailing IT system performance, uptime, security posture, and a summary of support activities, including key metrics. We also offer security & compliance reporting, along with capacity planning & resource utilisation reports to inform future investments.

We conduct strategic IT review meetings with your leadership to discuss performance, review reports, and align IT strategy with your evolving business goals, offering recommendations for upgrades and new solutions. We assist with budget & cost analysis and drive continuous improvement initiatives, identifying optimisation opportunities and presenting beneficial new technologies.
