The Business Challenge

The owner of Precision Engineering surveying company, faced increasing frustration with their existing IT support following a recent acquisition of their old IT company.  The promised seamless transition failed, leading to operational disruptions. Response times plummeted, causing project delays and impacting client deadlines, as the once-reliable support system became a bottleneck. The company's vital server infrastructure suffered neglect, raising concerns about outdated systems and potential workflow interruptions. Lapsed firewall security and slow internet speeds compromised data security and productivity, while the secondary internet connection proved unreliable.

Critical backup systems were failing, and offsite backups were inactive, leaving the company vulnerable to data loss, compounded by inaccessible backup locations. Network printers consistently went offline, further hindering workflow. The owner recognized the critical juncture they faced, as unreliable IT support threatened operational stability and data integrity. 

He needed a proactive and responsive IT partner to restore confidence and ensure smooth functioning operations
