Full scope

Everything in this lane

High-level checklist of what we cover — scoped and priced per project, not all at once unless you ask.

End-user & desktop

  • Windows and macOS troubleshooting: login, performance, updates, and permissions
  • Email and calendar: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, IMAP/SMTP, and MFA setup
  • Printers, scanners, and peripheral drivers where remote resolution is possible
  • New hire laptop setup, offboarding checklists, and asset handoff documentation
  • Antivirus, disk encryption, and baseline security settings for remote staff

Servers, cloud & containers

  • Linux and Windows Server basics: services, logs, disk, and performance triage
  • Docker and Compose stacks: restart, logs, updates, and volume backup checks
  • Cloud panels: AWS EC2/Lightsail, Hetzner, DigitalOcean, and DNS basics
  • Web hosting panels (cPanel, Plesk) when you already rely on them
  • Database connectivity and backup restore drills on agreed schedules

Security & continuity

  • Patch scheduling, reboot windows, and change notes after maintenance
  • Backup job review, restore tests, and “what to do when restore fails” runbooks
  • Account compromise triage: password resets, session revocation, and MFA recovery
  • Firewall and router rule documentation when we adjust business networks
  • Incident response for outages: isolate, communicate, restore, post-mortem notes

Collaboration & access

  • Shared drives, SharePoint, Google Drive permissions, and external sharing policies
  • VPN client install and troubleshooting (WireGuard, OpenVPN, corporate VPNs)
  • SSO and app access provisioning aligned to onboarding/offboarding lists
  • Vendor liaison when the issue is upstream (ISP, carrier, SaaS provider)

Engagement models

  • One-off fixes and small projects with written scope
  • Monthly retainer with defined hour bank and response targets
  • Not a 24/7 NOC unless explicitly contracted — expectations stated up front

Delivery

How we deliver it

Clear communication, documented changes, and pragmatic defaults — so you are never guessing what happens next.

  • Many small teams need a steady hand, not a full-time hire. We troubleshoot remotely, document what changed, and return when the next issue appears — scoped honestly for your size.

  • If something needs on-site hardware work, we document steps for someone local or coordinate with your vendor when geography allows.
