Remote hands service

Your ICT specialist can’t be everywhere. We send a skilled technician to site, equipped with a laptop and the right tools, to be their hands, eyes and ears.

Tell us what needs doing and we put a trained resource on site, working under your specialist’s direction by phone or remote session. It saves the time and cost of sending your own expert across the country for physical tasks, and gets problems resolved sooner.

How it helps

  • Physical checks, fault finding and reporting from site, with your specialist guiding every step.
  • Equipment installation, swaps, patching and cable tracing.
  • Photographs, labelling and documentation of racks, rooms and cabling.
  • Support during maintenance windows and migrations.
  • Coverage across our five regional offices.
  • No need for increased headcount.
