How an engagement runs.

Before a platform ships, it has a defined path to production, a named owner, alerting that has been tested, and a documented rollback procedure.

The kind of work we take on

View our work

Infrastructure & cloud

Staying on-prem, done properly

A 60-person engineering firm runs its file server and project software on an eight-year-old server in a closet. Their drawing files are too large to work from cloud storage, and no one has ever tested a restore.

What you end up with

They keep the on-prem setup their team works best with, on current hardware, with restores tested every quarter and a written runbook.

Software engineering & modernization

Legacy software, modernized while it keeps running

A distributor's order system is a .NET Framework application that two people understand, and it can't be paused for a rewrite.

What you end up with

Orders keep flowing the whole time. Each piece ships on its own, and the code is documented for whoever maintains it next.

Small business, Growth package

One team for a small business's website, email, and devices

An 18-person Houston HVAC company runs on a dated website, personal Gmail accounts, and a spreadsheet of service calls.

What you end up with

Leads stop getting lost, the business owns its accounts, and there's one team to call.

Enterprise

In a large environment, a change to identity, networking, or a shared platform touches systems owned by other teams.

Public sector

Public-sector engagements are designed around the evidence an assessment will require.

Growth & midmarket

Growing organizations reach a point where infrastructure practices built for a smaller team no longer hold.

Small business

A small business needs one team that answers for the website, the email and laptops, and the office network.
