Device management and procurement

Devices managed without creating unnecessary complexity.

Laptops, tablets, phones and shared devices need consistent updates, encryption and access control — and a sensible plan for when it's time to buy, reuse or refresh them.

What this work can include

  • Recommendations and implementation for Microsoft Intune, Google endpoint management or other suitable platforms.
  • Baseline security, update and encryption policies for laptops, desktops, tablets and phones.
  • Lost device, shared device and volunteer or BYOD access considerations.
  • New, refurbished and staged replacement options, matched to budget and actual need.
  • Practical lifecycle planning so working equipment isn't replaced before it needs to be.
  • Business-owned iPad and iPhone deployment — see Apple Device Management for field and trade teams.

Right-sized, not enterprise theatre

A five-person office and a fifty-seat charity don't need the same device management setup. We scope it to what you actually run and who actually needs access.

Device decisions are cost decisions too.

Component and device pricing shifts over time, which makes new-vs-refurbished-vs-reuse a genuine cost question, not just a technical one. Recommendations weigh new, refurbished and staged replacement options against what a device actually needs to do.

Shared and rostered devices

Clear handover between shifts or staff, so a shared laptop or tablet isn't a security blind spot.

BYOD, done carefully

Where personal devices are appropriate, access is scoped to protect work data without over-reaching into someone's own phone.
