Taking projects from Q4 2026

We fix the IT that quietly costs you money.

Endpoint fleets, identity platforms and the operational workflows around them - assessed, rebuilt, migrated and documented by two senior engineers. Based in Prague, working with clients worldwide.

What we do

Six things we get called in for.

Usually because something is growing faster than the IT that supports it, or because an audit deadline just became real.

Endpoint & device management

Zero-touch enrolment, configuration baselines, patch and compliance policy across macOS and Windows fleets - built so support tickets go down, not up.

  • Jamf
  • Intune
  • Kandji
  • JumpCloud

Identity & access

SSO, MFA, device trust and joiner-mover-leaver automation. Access that auditors accept and employees stop working around.

  • Okta
  • Entra ID
  • Platform SSO
  • SCIM

Platform migrations

MDM transitions, tenant moves and storage consolidations executed on a fixed cut-over plan, with rollback defined before the first device is touched.

  • MDM-to-MDM
  • Workspace
  • Microsoft 365

Automation & scripting

The manual work your team repeats every week, turned into scripts, workflows and API integrations that fail loudly instead of silently.

  • Python
  • PowerShell
  • Bash
  • APIs

IT operations maturity

Ticket analysis, SOPs, escalation paths and onboarding flows - so the same incident stops being solved five different ways.

  • ITIL
  • Six Sigma
  • Runbooks

Security & compliance readiness

Hardening, data classification, evidence collection and the documentation certification bodies actually ask for.

  • TISAX
  • ISO 27001
  • SOC 2

Selected work

Anonymised, but the numbers are real.

Clients are described by industry and scale. Everything else is exactly what happened.

Physical security company · ongoing engagement

Full IT stack assessment and improvement roadmap

Situation
A physical security company wanted an independent read on its IT stack - Jamf Pro, Google Workspace, Azure, JumpCloud, SentinelOne and Box, plus the inventory, SSO, automation and account/hardware lifecycle processes tying it together - before deciding what to fix first.
What we did
Audited every system in scope, mapped the weak points and the risk behind each one, then handed their IT team a prioritised improvement plan and are guiding them through implementing it - advisory, not hands-on-keyboard.
Impact
TODO(content) - engagement is ongoing, update once improvements are implemented

Cybersecurity company · Prague office · 2026

ISO 27001 audit prep

Situation
The Prague office has an upcoming ISO 27001 audit, and needed its compliance documentation and evidence trail brought up to standard beforehand.
What we did
Both of us are running the compliance preparations together - closing documentation gaps, tightening evidence collection, and getting the processes audit-ready.
Impact
TODO(content) - audit is upcoming, update once the outcome is confirmed
Status Prep in progress

Digital agency · 43 shared drives · 2022–2023

Large-scale Box data migration

Situation
43 shared drives - around 20 TB of data including full version history - needed to move to a new structure without losing history or breaking permissions.
What we did
Migrated the data with Box Shuttle, with mirrored root-folder and security-group structures prepared ahead of the move.
Impact
20.5 TB migrated across 43 shared drives, full version history preserved.
Data migrated 20.5 TB
Shared drives 43
Version history Preserved

Digital agency · 2 sites · 2021–2022

TISAX AL3 certification under a hard client deadline

Situation
Their largest customer required AL3 labels for prototype and confidential data. Missing the deadline meant losing the contract and 75 internal roles with it.
What we did
Split the programme into documentation, process and people. Wrote the data classification and handling policy, rebuilt external sharing controls, automated vendor and client account requests with time-bound approval, then trained every employee on what changed and why. The auditor tested our endpoint, identity and network security configuration in detail, plus HR/legal documentation and physical site security.
Impact
Both sites passed at the strictest level, with a single minor exception flagged for a subcontractor's onboarding status, resolved on a temporary-label basis while it closed out. The auditor noted the standard of automation was higher than expected for a company of this size. Operations continued uninterrupted, and the automated request workflow ended up saving time rather than costing it.
Certification Not assessed AL3 passed
Contract at risk Retained
Duration 12 months
Findings 1 minor, resolved

Digital agency · 180 TB · 8 weeks · 2020

Cloud storage consolidation on a two-month deadline

Situation
Renewal for a legacy file-storage platform was due in January and cash flow couldn't cover it. No ownership documentation existed - everyone had access to everything.
What we did
Reconstructed data ownership from access logs, confirmed it with team managers, then rebuilt the permission model per department. Ran the transfer with throttled sync jobs, folder-by-folder cut-over, read-only freezes and a final delta sync before handover.
Impact
Migration finished before the renewal date. Only the 80 TB actually in use was moved; the rest went to cheap archive storage, avoiding a licence tier upgrade.
Annual licensing $60,000 $0
Transfer budget $2,000 allocated under $500 spent
Access model Everyone, everything Per-department

Global enterprise · multi-region helpdesk · 2015–2019

Root-cause analysis on a growing ticket queue

Situation
Ticket volume in several categories was climbing and the proposed fix was hiring more agents.
What we did
Pulled six months of tickets and drilled into the recurring categories. Found the same issues being solved five different ways with almost no shared documentation. Built a reviewed SOP repository, automated the common fixes and pushed the preventable ones out as policy.
Impact
Fewer tickets, resolved faster, without adding headcount.
Ticket volume −15 to 20%
Average resolution 17 min 8 min
Extra headcount None

How we work

Four steps, and you can stop after any of them.

Assess

We look at the fleet, the identity stack and the tickets. You get findings ranked by cost and risk - useful even if you never hire us again.

Design

A target state that fits your team size and budget, with the migration path, rollback plan and what stays manual on purpose.

Deliver

Pilot group first, then staged rollout with a defined cut-over date and communication your users will actually read.

Hand over

Runbooks, admin training and a recorded walkthrough. The goal is that you don't need us on retainer.

Who you'll work with

Two engineers. No account managers.

The people who scope the work are the people who do it.
