Two ways to access support.

Choose how you want to pay - buy hours upfront and use them as needed, or spread the cost over a fixed monthly allocation.

Track 01 · Pay upfront

Upfront Hour Packs

Buy a block of hours upfront and use them as needed. Hours never expire and packs can be topped up at any time. Volume discounts apply to larger packs.

No monthly commitment. Hours are drawn down as work is carried out and tracked in full via our ITSM platform. Unused hours never expire.

Track 02 · Fixed monthly fee

Scoped Monthly Cover

A fixed monthly fee based on the specific infrastructure you want brought into scope - not a general block of hours. We agree upfront exactly which systems, services, and devices are covered and price accordingly.

Your monthly investment reflects what you need supported - servers, network, cloud services, or a combination. Clear scope, predictable cost, no surprises.
