IT Support Services


IT Support Services


IT support and engineering expertise for virtually every technology in your IT infrastructure.

Manage all aspects of the IT support services from design, consultancy and installation to maintenance services and a complete managed service, covering technologies such as voice & unified communications, security and wireless with support on devices that include servers, desktops, routers and switches to name a few.

** In-house support and skilled engineering resources for every technology needed within your organisation is often not an economically viable option.

** A new project may require skills that do not exist in your current team and timescales make increasing your headcount unrealistic. Hiring additional full-time staff present significant overhead costs.

Fixed Contract & Pay As You Go services


Contracted support can either be setup on an annual term or the term of a specific client project. Either way, this will be a pre-determined agreement to perform and deliver services based around agreed hardware, software, service level agreements (SLAs). An inventory or audit of the clients IT assets are recorded and a systems baseline health check will also be signed off, before the final support contract is agreed, to ensure the agreement on the clients I.T. systems current ‘state of health’.

If client does not wish to engage in a contract, but does want to bolt-on support onto their existing support team, services provided on a Pay As you Go provision typically carry a premium rate. Typically this service is only called upon in emergencies




Voucher Based Support Service


Provides clients discounted rates on support / engineering service hours and days booked in advance. For example you can purchase 25 days’ worth of vouchers in advance and will be used up depending on the level and frequency of support / service used. Vouchers do not expire and therefore can be carried over into subsequent financial years. Vouchers can be purchased in blocks and multiples of £5,000 and £10,000.
