Support Services

It is a fact that IT systems and infrastructure require on-going support and maintenance to keep them running smoothly and to prevent failure. It is better to schedule downtime to resolve a problem than have the network come to a standstill during the business day.

Through a mixture of on-site response and our remote support and monitoring tools, we are able to ensure that the system health is maintained. Ensuring that any relevant and necessary service packs or security fixes have been applied, that the data backup has run successfully, the Anti-Virus protection is up to date, there is sufficient hard disk space for the system to operate effectively and for the storing of data files. The system event logs are checked for highlighted errors or warnings.

Where remedial action is likely to impact the system availability it will NOT be taken to update or change without prior notification and scheduling. Change Control is an important part of maintaining a stable environment and we want to ensure that we enhance the overall stability of the system.

With our fixed price options, customers can benefit by knowing that their IT costs will not exceed budget. Services will be delivered and systems will be maintained to our normal high standards.

System Audit

Our full Systems Audit will ensure that you have an up to date documented IT infrastructure, with software licenses reconciled. A remedial action plan will be submitted to address issues that are in place prior to the commencement of the support contract. It is essential in order to maintain service levels that the system is stable and documented at the beginning of the contract. 

 
Prioritisation of Request

At the point of logging the call the problem will be assigned a call reference number, a priority and an estimate of response time. Where possible an appointment time will be agreed. Call priorities are negotiated based on several factors and are coded as either; 1, 2, 3 or 4. 

  • Priority 1 - Business Critically impaired by loss of service
    Service Level Target: Same Day (4 hour response)

  • Priority 2 - Business is Severely impaired by loss of service
    Service Level Target: 1st Call Next Day (8 hour response)

  • Priority 3 - Business is Partially impaired by loss of service.
    Service Level Target: 24 hours

  • Priority 4 - Business function is unaffected / Scheduled Maintenance.
    Service Level Target: 72 hours
