Managed IT Services
Co-Managed IT
You have capable people who know your business, but no team covers every discipline or every hour. Co-managed IT fills those gaps. We take the work you choose, such as security monitoring, patching, after-hours support or projects, and leave the rest with your staff. Responsibilities are written down, so nobody wonders who owns what. The arrangement flexes as your team grows, so you never pay for coverage you no longer need.
Small teams cannot be experts at everything
One or two IT professionals are expected to handle support, networks, cloud, security and compliance. Burnout is common, and holiday cover is thin.
Replacing them with an outsourced provider throws away valuable knowledge of your people and systems, which is why many leaders hesitate to outsource at all.
What’s in scope
- Responsibility matrix dividing work between teams
- Shared tooling and a single ticket queue
- After-hours and holiday coverage
- Specialist engineers on call for projects
- Security monitoring and patch management
- Overflow support during peaks and absences
- Documentation and knowledge transfer
Method
How the work runs
- 1
Map the work
We list all IT tasks and agree which stay in house, which we take over and which we share.
- 2
Connect
Tools, tickets and communication channels are joined so both teams see the same picture.
- 3
Run together
Daily operations follow the agreed split, with escalation routes defined in both directions.
- 4
Adjust
Quarterly reviews rebalance responsibilities as your team, tools and business change.
Will our IT staff feel replaced?
No. The model is designed to take repetitive and out-of-hours work off them so they can focus on projects that matter.
Can we change the split later?
Yes. Responsibilities are reviewed each quarter and can grow or shrink as your needs change.
How is co-managed IT priced?
It is scoped to the services you choose, so request a consultation and we will prepare a proposal.
