Managed cloud support for public sector AWS and Azure environments

Ongoing AWS and Azure support for public sector organisations that need reliable cloud operations, better visibility, responsive help and practical improvement — without building a large internal cloud team.

  • Senior AWS and Azure engineers
  • Co-managed with internal teams
  • Monitoring, incidents and improvement
  • Out-of-hours support available

Public sector cloud support needs more than a helpdesk

Public sector cloud support is not just ticket handling. It needs technical ownership, visibility, monitoring, documentation, escalation, supplier clarity and continuous improvement.

No clear incident owner

Cloud incidents bouncing between suppliers and internal teams without ownership.

Monitoring gaps

Limited visibility of availability, backups, performance and operational risk.

Slow supplier responses

Long response times when something breaks or needs cloud expertise.

Unclear escalation

No defined route for urgent or critical cloud issues.

Under-documented environments

Limited diagrams, runbooks and operational evidence.

Stretched internal teams

Small teams spread across too many systems with no dedicated cloud capacity.

Cloud bills rising

Costs increasing with no clear ownership or improvement plan.

Unclear security ownership

Patching and security responsibilities split unevenly across suppliers and teams.

Limited out-of-hours cover

No senior visibility of critical workloads outside business hours.
