Skelmersdale · LancashireIT support & consulting in Skelmersdale.
Senior, independent IT help for businesses in Skelmersdale — cloud, security, networking and phone systems, plus fractional IT leadership. On-site at no extra travel cost.
Working with Skelmersdale businesses
Skelmersdale is home, so this is the one place I can genuinely be on site quickly. Between White Moss, Pimbo and Gillibrands there is a substantial base of manufacturing, logistics and professional businesses, many running on IT that has grown organically rather than been designed.
I know the area, the connectivity constraints on the industrial estates, and the reality that a lot of local businesses are paying a provider in Liverpool or Manchester who treats them as a low-priority account. Being ten minutes away changes that.
What I help Skelmersdale businesses with
- Fractional IT director — senior IT leadership a few days a month
- IT and provider assessments — an independent view on whether you are getting value
- Security and Cyber Essentials — hardening and certification support
- Microsoft 365 — setup, migration and tidying up
- Azure and cloud migration — off ageing servers onto something manageable
- Networking — firewalls, wi-fi and multi-site connectivity
- Phone systems — reviews and cloud voice migrations
- Ad-hoc IT support — a senior pair of hands when you need one
Areas covered around Skelmersdale
White Moss Business Park, Pimbo, Gillibrands, Stanley Industrial Estate, Up Holland and Digmoor. Remote support is available anywhere in the UK, and a good deal of this work does not need anyone on site at all.
Why use an independent rather than a managed provider
Managed providers do a genuinely useful job, but they are selling a monthly contract and every recommendation carries that incentive. I am not reselling anything and I do not want a three-year commitment. If the honest answer is that your current setup is fine, I will tell you that.
You also deal with me directly rather than a rotating helpdesk. Same person every time, someone who currently runs an IT function for a living.
Costs
Ad-hoc work is £85 an hour or £450 a day, projects start at £750, and fractional IT leadership runs from £350 a month. No VAT to add. Full guide prices are published openly.
Response times: within 2 hours during working hours, and never more than 24 hours.
