Common Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Straightforward answers about our project engagements, methodologies, and support.

Will our business experience downtime during a Microsoft 365 or network migration?

No. We pre-sync all mailboxes, file shares, and cloud identities in the background days prior to cutover. The final transition is executed outside business hours with instant DNS routing switches, ensuring your staff experience uninterrupted workflow the next morning.

Do you offer one-off project delivery or ongoing IT support?

We deliver both. Many clients engage us for specific infrastructure overhauls, firewall deployments, or security audits with clear fixed scoping. We also provide ongoing advisory and tier-3 escalated support for businesses that want reliable senior engineering without locking into bloated MSP contracts.

What happens to our system documentation after project completion?

You receive 100% of your system documentation, admin credentials, topology diagrams, and operational runbooks upon project sign-off. We strictly believe that clients should fully own and understand their IT systems with zero vendor lock-in.

Can you work alongside our existing in-house IT contact or web team?

Absolutely. We frequently collaborate with internal office managers, junior IT personnel, or software development teams to handle the heavy architectural engineering, complex routing, firewall rules, and Microsoft security policies.

What geographical areas do you support?

We provide remote engineering and cloud consulting across the entire United Kingdom. For physical cabling, rack installations, and on-site hardware rollouts, we primarily cover Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Lancashire, and the North West.
