Acting as a fractional IT manager is a problem we solve frequently. As businesses grow, they quickly outgrow ad-hoc technical support and start needing real strategy, plus management of other suppliers, projects, and solutions — but they don't necessarily need, or want to pay for, a full-time hire.
Growing businesses often reach a point where IT decisions become too complex and too important to handle reactively, but bringing in a full-time IT manager comes with a significant ongoing cost. What they need is senior-level experience, available flexibly, that can scale up and down as their needs change.
We bring decades of experience managing IT teams, projects, and solutions globally — as well as experience on the vendor side, selling technology for IT suppliers and partners. That combination means we're well placed to secure our customers the best possible pricing and terms.
Our packages are fully customisable, from as little as one day a month up to full-time cover, adapting to suit each business as their needs change.
One example is a local business that has grown threefold over the last four years. We scaled our involvement up to a day a week during periods of maximum change, and have since scaled back down to a day a month now things have settled. Over that engagement we've covered:
The business now has senior IT oversight that flexes with demand, better security and supportability across their supplier relationships, and a more modern, standardised technology environment — all without the cost of a full-time IT manager.
