Specialist managed IT, cyber security and Microsoft 365 for Birmingham businesses, delivered from nearby Lichfield, with a UK helpdesk and more than 20 years supporting West Midlands SMBs.
Birmingham is the UK’s second city and a huge market of professional, financial and legal services in and around the Colmore business district, creative and tech firms in Digbeth, the long-standing SMEs of the Jewellery Quarter, and family businesses across the suburbs. The usual IT choice is a giant national provider that treats you as a number, or a one-person band.
We are a deliberately different option. A Lichfield-based team a straightforward run into Birmingham via the A38, with a proper UK helpdesk, engineers who come out to site, and a 5.0 ★ record built over more than twenty years with growing West Midlands businesses.
You get the attention of a local, founder-led firm with the depth of a specialist managed IT provider. If you also have premises in nearby Sutton Coldfield or Coleshill, we cover those too.

Our office is in nearby Lichfield, a straightforward run into Birmingham via the A38. We are a local West Midlands firm, close enough to be on-site when you need us without big-city overheads.
Most issues are fixed remotely within minutes, and we plan on-site visits across the Birmingham postcodes when hands-on work is needed. For the north of the city and Sutton Coldfield we are especially well placed.

Our sweet spot is Birmingham SMBs between 5 and 100 staff, the established and family-owned firms where IT really matters but a full in-house team is not practical.
That is most of our onboarding work. We handle the handover, document everything we inherit, and move you onto our managed platform with no gap in support. Most transitions complete within 30 days.
Managed IT support starts at £47 per person per month. Cyber security, Microsoft 365 and project work are priced by scope. See our pricing page for the detail.
30 focused minutes with Andy or one of our senior engineers. We will review your current setup, the gaps that would worry an insurer or auditor, and the highest-impact moves for your Birmingham business over the next 90 days.
