Escalation and technical depth
Infrastructure issues, architecture questions, troubleshooting, and deeper technical work.
Add technical depth without moving to a fully outsourced model.
Service Model
Co-Managed IT for teams that need added depth and capacity.
Co-Managed IT adds support around the internal team without taking ownership away from it. The model is designed for organizations that need escalation help, project support, platform administration, or additional operational coverage.
Extend the internal team
Add operational support
Support backlog, escalations, projects, and day-to-day work.
Keep ownership intact
The internal team keeps control of priorities and direction.
Support operations and projects
Use the model for routine reinforcement and higher-level technical work.
Overview
Reinforce the team without replacing it.
Co-Managed IT adds capacity where internal teams need reinforcement: escalations, infrastructure work, platform administration, project delivery, cleanup, and day-to-day support load. Internal leadership, business context, and priority ownership stay with the team that already owns the environment.
Common reasons to use it
- The internal team needs additional capacity
- Projects compete with daily support
- Escalations need deeper technical help
- The business is not ready to fully outsource IT
What’s Included
Operational reinforcement for internal IT teams.
Project and initiative support
Migrations, upgrades, remediation, standardization, and other technical initiatives.
Platform administration
Cloud services, identity, endpoints, infrastructure, networking, and security tooling.
Operational reinforcement
Backlog reduction, routine changes, ongoing administration, and day-to-day support load.
Operating Model
Shared support with clear responsibility boundaries.
What stays with the internal team
- Internal leadership and business context
- Priority setting and local ownership
- Business-facing decisions
- Direction of the environment
What MP Technology can reinforce
- Escalation support
- Deeper technical execution
- Project delivery and change work
- Administration and routine operational support
The responsibility split should remain clear, documented, and useful to the operating model.
FAQ
Common questions.
Does Co-Managed IT require an internal IT team?
Yes. The model reinforces internal ownership rather than replacing it.
Can responsibilities be split between teams?
Yes. The split is based on internal strengths, priorities, and where help is needed.
Does it include both ongoing support and project work?
Yes. Many co-managed relationships include both operational reinforcement and project support.
How does it differ from Managed IT?
Managed IT is outsourced IT operations. Co-Managed IT keeps internal ownership in place and adds support around it.
