Effective Service Management is at the core of the Kluetek Managed IT Services portfolio. We believe passionately about building positive and enduring relationships with our customers. This is based on a foundation of excellent service quality supported by continuous improvement programmes to deliver real benefits to our customers.

Our Approach

Our Service Account Management team are Service driven rather than Sales driven, which translates for our customers to a focus on delivering Service excellence rather than a purely sales orientated approach.
As with all our services our approach to Service Management is tailored to the specific requirements of our customers. It is typically based around regular Service Review meetings which form the basis for our service improvement discussions.

The Littlefish service experience is underpinned by our Enterprise-class IT Service Management system which captures and provides the necessary business intelligence upon which we can make informed decisions to improve your systems and services. This analysis is presented in our monthly report pack.

Because we work with customers of all shapes and sizes, we can also bring the experiences of similar organisations to help inform your business decisions. This might be from a business in the same sector, of a similar scale, or one that has overcome the same challenges that your business may be facing.

  • Tailored approach to Service Management to suit your business requirements
  • Informative monthly reporting pack demonstrating service performance
  • Continual Service Improvement Programme
  • Shared experiences from other customers to help inform your business decisions

Infrastructure Management

Infrastructure Management

No business underestimates the criticality of keeping their server and network infrastructure up and running. In many cases when server/network outages or service degradation occurs it can prevent your entire business from operating. With this in mind it is crucial that appropriate measures are taken to safeguard your systems and applications. Kluetek provides a comprehensive Infrastructure Management service that maximises uptime and ensures that your systems and applications, be they on-premise, hosted, or Cloud based, are optimally configured for performance.

We adopt a three-pronged approach to Infrastructure Management:

  • Support – In essence keeping the lights on and ensuring appropriate technical resource is available 24/7 to address issues rapidly and prevent/reduce downtime.
  • Monitoring – Keeping a comprehensive eye on the availability, performance and health of your systems and applications. When issues occur we identify and address them rapidly. Reports are generated monthly and analysed by our team to ensure developing trends are captured.
  • Management – Broken down as:
    • Configuration – Ensuring appropriate configuration of your infrastructure and adapting it as your requirements develop and change.
    • Administration – Assuming the role of the old-fashioned Systems Administrator. Undertaking frequent housekeeping routines to ensure that you’re getting the best from your systems and applications.
    • Optimisation – Continually assessing the configuration and performance of your systems and applications to ensure optimal performance and usability.
