Perth businesses

IT for the way Perth businesses work

Perth's economy is closely tied to mining and resources, and a large number of Perth businesses are engineering firms, contractors, equipment suppliers and professional services firms that serve the sector. Alongside them are health providers, logistics businesses and a broad base of local small and mid-sized companies.

For businesses connected to resources, IT has to support people who work away from the office, sometimes on remote sites with limited connectivity, and clients who expect a certain standard of security from their suppliers. Managed IT helps by standardising devices, securing remote access and Microsoft 365, and making sure the business can show its security baseline when a client asks.

Problems we are usually asked to fix

These come up again and again when we first look at a Perth business's IT.
  • Staff working remotely or on sites with limited connectivity
  • Security questionnaires from larger resources clients
  • Laptops built by hand with no standard image or management
  • Head office and site networks managed by different people

How support is delivered in Perth

We are based in Melbourne and support Perth businesses remotely first. Device management, Microsoft 365, backups, patching and firewall management are handled remotely and do not depend on where we are.

Perth is two or three hours behind Melbourne depending on the time of year, so we agree support hours and maintenance windows that suit your working day as part of the scope. When work needs someone on-site, we arrange a visit as needed.

Staff raise requests by email, phone or the support portal. We triage each one by its impact on the business, keep notes and documentation as we go, and review the environment with you regularly. The full model is explained on our managed IT services page.
