Project Services

Expert IT work, delivered as a one-off project

Not every business needs us running everything. Sometimes you just need one job done right, by people who do this every week. A network, a migration, a certification, a security audit. You get the same team and the same standard as the clients we look after every day.

A quiet question

What brought you here today?

Most projects start with a single moment. If one of these is where you are right now, you’re exactly who this is for.

The usual starting points

A tender or insurer wants Cyber Essentials

And you need it done right and fast, not signed off as a last-minute tickbox.

You’ve moved, or outgrown your network

A new office with no connectivity, slow broadband, or wireless that keeps dropping.

Someone’s come back worried about security

A networking event, a news story, a near-miss, and now you don’t know where to start.

Your server is ageing and the cloud is calling

An old server, or you’re on Google Workspace wondering whether Microsoft 365 would serve you better.

Systems have sprawled

Tools and security have grown piece by piece, and you just want to feel confident and in control again.

You’ve got a one-off you want done right

A migration, a new build or a security audit, handed to people who won’t cut corners.

Whatever the trigger, the worry underneath is usually the same: will it be done right, and will I regret who I picked? That’s the part we take seriously.

What we deliver

No retainers. No strings.

Most IT companies sell you a project and disappear.
We deliver it like it’s the start of something.

We take on four kinds of one-off IT and security project across the South West: networks and infrastructure, cloud and Microsoft 365, Cyber Essentials, and security testing. Each is scoped and priced on its own, with nothing else attached.

Networks, connectivity & infrastructure

Infrastructure built for how you actually work

We design, build and optimise business networks as standalone projects, so the infrastructure underneath your team is fast, reliable and ready to grow. Whether that’s a new office with no connectivity, poor wireless, broadband that can’t keep up, or a network that has quietly fallen behind the business.

Cloud & Microsoft 365

Move to the cloud without the drama

Microsoft 365, Azure, local-to-cloud and hybrid setups, planned and delivered so nothing breaks and nobody loses a day. We modernise how you work and build the resilience and backup that should have been there from the start.

Cyber Essentials & compliance

Win the contracts that demand it

We get you through Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus as a one-off project. We don’t treat it as a tickbox, we treat it as a real audit of your security against the standard, so you pass with confidence and can prove it when it counts. More clients, insurers and tenders now require it to win the work.

Security testing & assurance

Know exactly where you stand

A clear, honest picture of your security, with the gaps found before someone else finds them. From AI-driven penetration testing to a one-off posture audit, you get a plain-English report and a prioritised plan, not a wall of jargon.

How it works

What working with us looks like

Five steps, from the first conversation to a proper handover. You always know where things stand.

  1. Scope it

    A quick call and a free assessment, so we get what you’re actually trying to fix before anyone quotes a thing.

  2. A clear, costed plan

    We come back with a fixed scope and a fixed price, so there are no surprise day-rates halfway through.

  3. Built and delivered

    Our own engineers do the work, planned around your week so the disruption is minimal and you’re kept in the loop.

  4. A proper handover

    We hand it over working, walk your team through it, and make sure you’re confident running it. No downing tools and disappearing.

  5. Done, no strings

    No contract, no lock-in. If you’d like us to keep an eye on it from here, that’s your call, not ours.

Real projects, real results

A few we’ve delivered recently

Different businesses, different problems. Same approach every time: work out what’s actually wrong, then fix it.

Networks & wireless

Dropped calls gone, and the room to grow

+5 team members

and some of their best clients yet

The situationA 35-person digital media company whose every Teams meeting was dropping, freezing and glitching on wireless that couldn’t cope.

What we didWe audited the wireless, found the real issues, upgraded the equipment and optimised the network. The team went on to grow by five, win some of their best clients yet, and saw customer satisfaction climb.

Connectivity

From “stuck with bad broadband” to flying

Up to 5× faster

full-fibre broadband, +500%

The situationA business convinced that poor broadband was simply their lot, with slow connectivity holding the whole team back.

What we didWe worked with our partners to get full fibre to the premises, lifting speeds by up to 500%, with a clear knock-on rise in productivity and morale.

Cyber Essentials

Certified in time, and the contract was won

Contract won

Cyber Essentials certified in the tender window

The situationAn urgent tender that required Cyber Essentials, with no certification in place and the clock ticking.

What we didWe treated it as a real audit of their security posture, not a tickbox, got them certified inside the tender window, and they went on to win the work.

Microsoft 365 & resilience

A resilient setup, built to grow on

Built to scale

cloud email & files, tested backup

The situationA business that had grown to 30 people on a setup built for five: old IMAP mailboxes, a small file server, and no tested backup.

What we didWe migrated files and email to the cloud and built in backup resilience that’s regularly tested, giving them a modern foundation ready to grow on.

Why trust us with it

The right people on the job

A project done badly costs more than never doing it. So we don’t treat one-off work as second best: you get our best engineers and the same standards as any contract. Project delivery is led by Mark Butler, our Head of Technical Services, who runs each project from scope through to handover.

Our own engineers

Every project is run by our own certified team, the same people who look after our managed clients.

Cyber Essentials Plus

We’re certified against the standard ourselves, so we know it inside out, not just talk you through it.

Backed 24×7

A Microsoft partner, with our own round-the-clock security operations behind every project.

Good questions

Project FAQs

The things people usually want to know before they get in touch.

No. Every project stands on its own, with no retainer and no lock-in. If it makes sense afterwards we can look after it ongoing, but that’s your call.
Yes, as long as your current provider contract does not have an exclusivity clause. We regularly deliver one-off projects alongside an existing provider or in-house team.
Our own certified engineers, the same team that looks after our managed clients. No subcontractors.
No contracts and no lock-in. The project is finished when it’s handed over and working.
Exeter, Plymouth and across the South West, and UK-wide on request.
It depends on scope. You get a fixed, costed plan before you commit a penny, so there are never any surprises.
On average, Cyber Essentials within four weeks and Cyber Essentials Plus within three months. It depends how ready your systems are, so we assess first and confirm a realistic timeline before you commit.

If it’s the start of something

A great project is often how a partnership begins

Plenty of the businesses we now look after started with a single project. We did the work, they saw how we operate, and the relationship grew from there. There’s never any pressure, but if you like how we work, we’re ready when you are.
