Why adopt an agile it resourcing approach?

The key driving factor for many businesses in choosing to outsource from a third-party vendor, also known as a Managed Services Provider, lies in it allowing them to boost development rate, meet internal staff’s IT needs and save maintenance costs in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Packaging IT to suit your current needs

The rise of more businesses moving towards managed services with some 59% of global companies having already transitioned from the traditional break-fix model to a managed services contract model is led by the demand for deep expertise in specific areas and technology stack.

Essentially, managed services providers work according to a business’ requirements and should tailor solutions whether in business processes, tech infrastructure, or management practices as per the business’ needs. The flexibility that comes with paying for what you use, and the duration used is a plus in managing ongoing IT costs as business situations change.

What to expect?

The past two years’ lessons point clearly to the need for all businesses, irrespective of their size, to remain nimble and adaptive. A managed services provider could seamlessly support your business from security, IT maintenance, data backup, business process streamlining, network administration, and helpdesk to help your teams and stakeholders stay connected and focused on running the operations.

With a managed services provider taking care of the IT requirements, businesses can redirect their time back to addressing more pressing concerns that are impacting them. Focus on core business and strategic decisions drive growth. By not diluting the management and internal teams’ attention with IT tasks which could drain time and energy, a business can pay its attention to its real purpose – delivering great customer experience.

By concentrating all effort in streamlining internal processes, optimising IT productivity, boost efficiency and maintain security on the managed services provider, this will eventually increase the return of IT investment. A good managed services provider will bring the latest, upgraded software versions and deliver a positive impact on absolving additional infrastructure or maintenance costs to drive its value proposition.
