What is Managed Services?
Managed Services is pre-purchased consultancy time. The consultancy time can be brought in blocks of days (at a minimum of five days) and depending on the number of days purchased, you receive a discount on the usual day rate.
This time will be used to cover any additional chargeable work/support you may require, allowing you to alleviate the worry of unexpected IT expenditure by accounting for it within your budget for the year.
What are the Benefits?
Flexible Payment Plans
We can offer flexible payment plans by billing you over 3 – 12 months depending on the number of days purchased.
Cost Saving
You will receive a discount when pre-purchasing this consultancy time in bulk, giving you a significant cost saving compared to buying the time as and when you need it.
Budget Control
By pre-purchasing, costs can be accounted for in your budget, meaning you don’t have to worry about unexpected costs arising.
Full Transparency
Your technical account manager will make note of all the time spent on each activity, allowing you to have full transparency of what time is being spent, where.
Faster Delivery of Projects
As this time will have been agreed by senior management, it allows for greater flexibility, reduced decision making time and therefore, faster delivery of projects.
No Expiry Dates
Once purchased, the time has no expiry date, so even if you don’t use it within the year, your money wont go to waste as you can still use this time over the next few years!
Can be Topped Up
You can always top up your time if required.
Not Affected by Price Increases
Even if consultancy prices were to increase in line with inflation, you will not be expected to pay anything additional for the time you have already pre-purchased.
Why Should You Pre-Purchase Consultancy Time?
As well as being more cost-effective, you have the consultancy time on hand, so should any unexpected issues arise, they can be sorted immediately with minimal disruption to your business.
