Services

What we manage, so you don't have to.

Seven services, delivered under one retainer or piecework, with a 15 minute response target on Priority 1 tickets.

Microsoft 365 management

Tenant setup, licensing, Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, Intune, Entra ID, across tenants that span several countries.

Cloud infrastructure (AWS)

EC2, VPC, S3, backup targets, cost reviews and migration from on-prem. We run production agribusiness workloads on AWS today.

Backup & disaster recovery

MSP360 Managed Backup with immutable object storage on Wasabi or AWS S3. GFS retention, off-site copies, documented restore tests. We treat backup as a service, not a setting.

Remote support & helpdesk

ConnectWise-backed ticketing, phone and remote session support. 15 minute response on Priority 1, same-business-day on standard requests, an actual human who knows your environment.

Network & VPN

FortiGate firewalls, site-to-site VPN between mills, terminals, plants and regional offices, and wireless across sheds and production floors. Designed for sites where links are slow or drop out.

Security & Essential Eight

MFA, application control, patch management, user training, endpoint protection, monitored logging. We align to the ACSC Essential Eight maturity model and the equivalent controls other APAC regulators expect.

Managed services (full retainer)

All of the above, under one monthly fee. Predictable cost, priority response, quarterly business reviews, roadmap aligned to your operating calendar, not ours.

Specialisation

Built for multi-site agribusiness.

Our clients run mills, refineries, bakeries, grain terminals and weighbridges spread across several countries, often a long way from the nearest data centre. We build IT that works at those sites and ties them back to a single tenant, network and support desk.

We support the systems agribusiness runs on: Grainsmart, MEX, TM1/Cognos, SCADA and weighbridge integrations.
