How We Work

You get a predictable process, clear ownership, and practical recommendations. Month-to-month. No lock-in. No vague “we’ll handle it.”

What happens next: a short call to understand your environment, then a clear plan for next steps.

Engagement model

Simple working relationship. Clear boundaries.

  • Month-to-month: you’re not trapped in a contract to get decent support.
  • Clear scope: what’s included vs. what’s a project is discussed upfront.
  • Ownership: you’ll know what’s being done and why. No mystery work.
  • Practical security: improvements with tradeoffs explained, not fear tactics.

Onboarding

First we learn your environment, then we stabilize it.

Week 1–2: discovery

  • Access and account review (who has access to what)
  • Inventory: endpoints, servers, key SaaS apps
  • Backup and recovery reality check
  • Risk review: what can hurt you quickly

Week 2–6: stabilize

  • Fix repeat issues and obvious gaps
  • Baseline patching and maintenance plan
  • Documentation that’s usable, not a PDF graveyard
  • Agree on priorities and communication cadence

If your environment is messy, that’s normal. We’ll get it under control, but we won’t pretend it’s instant.

Ongoing support

Responsive help, but with priorities that make sense.

  • Clear triage: urgent issues get handled fast. Non-urgent work is scheduled and tracked.
  • Communication: you get straightforward updates — no runaround.
  • Maintenance: patching, renewals, lifecycle, backups (as applicable) stay on a plan.
  • Visibility: you’ll know what changed, what’s pending, and what’s recommended next.

Projects vs. support

No surprises. Bigger changes are planned and approved.

  • Support: day-to-day issues and routine administration.
  • Projects: migrations, major upgrades, new sites, redesigning infrastructure, and other change-heavy work.
  • Approach: we scope it, explain tradeoffs, and you approve before time is burned.
