Co-Managed IT Services
Your IT person needs an IT person
If you have a sharp internal admin or a small IT team, you've already noticed the gaps: nobody to escalate to, no leverage with vendors, security questions above their pay grade, and projects that stall because the help desk eats every day. Co-managed fills exactly those gaps — without displacing anybody.
How the split works
Your team keeps the institutional knowledge and day-to-day. We take what they can't get to: vendor and contract management, security architecture and monitoring, projects, after-hours escalation, and the executive reporting your leadership actually wants to read.
Why it beats hiring
One senior addition to your team costs a salary, benefits, and a recruiting gamble. Co-managed gives you a bench for less — and your IT person gets a senior colleague instead of a competitor, which is why they usually love this arrangement.
Won't my IT person feel threatened?
In our experience the opposite — they get backup, training, and someone to escalate to. We've never taken an internal role; that's a different engagement and we'd tell you.
What does co-managed IT cost?
Less than one additional hire, scoped to what your team actually needs covered. The audit determines the split before anyone signs anything.
