How It Works
You Keep Control. We Cover the Gaps.
Co-managed isn't outsourcing your team away. It's giving them a deep bench. Together we decide who owns what, and the division stays flexible as your needs change.
Your Team Keeps
- Ownership of IT strategy and priorities
- Day-to-day decisions and vendor relationships you want
- The work they do best and enjoy most
- Full visibility into everything we handle
We Take On
- Specialties that don't justify a full-time hire: security, cloud, compliance
- After-hours coverage, monitoring, and helpdesk overflow
- Projects your team doesn't have bandwidth for
- Whatever mix makes your team more effective
When CoManaged Makes Sense
Signs It's Time for a Partner
Your IT person is stretched thin
One or two people are keeping everything running, projects keep slipping, and a single vacation or sick day leaves you exposed. We add depth so nothing stalls.
You need a specialist you can't justify hiring
Cybersecurity, compliance, or cloud expertise is a full salary you don't need full-time. We bring that specialist to your team only when and where you need them.
Coverage has gaps
Nights, weekends, and holidays leave your systems unwatched, and helpdesk tickets pile up faster than your team can clear them. We cover the gaps so your team isn't always underwater.
The Math
Every Skill Set, Without Every Salary
Modern IT demands network, security, cloud, telecom, and helpdesk expertise: five specialties no single hire covers, and five salaries most SMBs can't justify. Co-managed gives you the whole bench for a fraction of one specialist's cost. Here's how one CFO put it:
"The biggest benefit we gained was that I don't have to split my limited IT budget between various skill sets... INFORTECH's team covers all roles and expertise from global connectivity, network, cyber security, telecom, servers, and desktop support."
— Michael Lund, Former CFO, Microbar & Intematix

Common Questions
CoManaged FAQs
Will INFORTECH replace our internal IT staff?
No. CoManaged is built to make your existing team more effective, not to replace them. Your staff keep ownership of strategy, priorities, and the day-to-day decisions they want to own. We take on the specialties, the overflow, and the coverage gaps, so your people can focus on the work that matters most to the business.
Can we start with just one service?
Yes. You can hand us a single service, such as cybersecurity or after-hours coverage, and expand later if it's working. There is no requirement to turn over your whole IT function to get started.
How does INFORTECH work alongside our existing team?
We agree together on who owns what, document it clearly, and keep your team with full visibility into everything we handle. The division of responsibilities stays flexible and changes as your needs change, so the partnership fits how your team actually works.
What if our needs change over time?
The engagement flexes with you. If your internal team grows, we scale back to fill only what's left. If your IT lead leaves, we can step up to full coverage through our ExpertCare model until you're ready to rebuild. You're never locked into a rigid structure.
