Managed IT
Day-to-day support and infrastructure management, with MDR included as standard on every managed plan.
Based in Reading, we help regulated UK organisations run their IT, secure it, build what is missing and keep the evidence audit-ready. One team does all four, and you deal directly with the engineers doing the work.

Protect the business and prove it. We are an appointed Cyber Essentials certification body.
Custom software, plus automation and applied AI, built by the engineers who run and secure it. UK-hosted deployment is available.
Audits that find overspend and unmanaged risk, and the evidence auditors, insurers and clients ask for.
We run the IT, security, software and evidence together, so responsibility for all four stays in one place. Nothing waits on a handoff between suppliers.
How that works in practiceEach is written up as a case study, named only with written consent and anonymised where naming a client would tell an attacker something.
Most begin with a review of what you run, what you pay, and what would fail an audit. You get the findings whether or not you use us.

We work best with organisations that have something to prove, to a regulator, a prime contractor, an insurer or an investor. Regulated work with certification obligations is most of what we do, certification is where we start, and our prices are published on the site.
Our service desk covers first-line questions through to architecture and system administration. Day-to-day IT support in Reading is the same desk.

We look at what you have, what it costs, and where the risk sits.
A prioritised plan of what to do first. You set the pace and the budget.
We take it on, improve it, and build what you need, with security designed in.
Ongoing evidence and reporting you can show an auditor, an insurer or a client.
Book a consultation, or start with an audit. You speak to an engineer, not a salesperson.
