How It Works

How Co-Managed IT Works

Your internal team handles the day-to-day operations they know best. SADOS covers what they cannot: security monitoring, after-hours incident response, specialized technical projects, and strategic planning. A clear RACI matrix defines exactly who handles what. Managed IT co-managed boundaries are documented during onboarding so nothing falls through the cracks.

Process

How It Works

Co-managed IT services scope is defined collaboratively during the proposal process. Our tools deploy alongside your existing stack without conflict or overlap. Our managed IT services integrate with your internal IT operations so both teams have clear visibility into who handles what category of issue and when escalation applies.

What Co-Management Adds

Help Desk Overflow

When your internal team is overwhelmed, unavailable, or needs backup, tickets route to our engineers. Help desk overflow ensures your employees always have someone to call, even when your IT staff is tied up on projects.

Security Operations

After-hours and weekend coverage extends your internal team availability without overtime costs. Tickets submitted outside business hours route to our engineers who have access to your documentation and follow the same procedures as your internal staff.

vCIO Strategy

Project-based support for initiatives that exceed your team capacity. Cloud migrations, security stack deployments, compliance remediations, and infrastructure upgrades get dedicated SADOS resources while your internal team maintains daily operations without interruption.

Specialized Expertise

Shared documentation maintained jointly between your internal team and SADOS engineers. Network diagrams, standard procedures, escalation paths, and vendor contacts live in a shared repository that both teams reference for consistent service delivery.

Documentation

We help build the documentation, procedures, and runbooks your internal team needs but never has time to create. Standard operating procedures documented so knowledge is preserved regardless of staff turnover.

Common Questions

FAQ

Responsibilities split cleanly through a documented RACI matrix. Typically your team handles in-person support and internal project management while SADOS provides monitoring, security, after-hours coverage, and specialized technical work as co-managed IT services. Managed IT boundaries are defined during onboarding so both teams know exactly who handles what without overlap or gaps.
Yes. Co-managed IT services scope adjusts as your internal team grows, projects change, or organizational needs evolve. Adding or removing responsibilities from our scope is straightforward and does not require contract renegotiation. CompTIA research shows co-managed arrangements are the fastest-growing MSP service model because they provide the flexibility growing organizations need.
Yes. We integrate with your existing tools and platforms whenever possible in our co-managed IT services engagement. Escalation tiers are documented so both teams know exactly who handles what category of issue. Your team resolves what they can and escalates to SADOS for issues requiring deeper expertise or after-hours response. We escalate back to your team for decisions requiring business context we do not have.
Security monitoring and incident response through our co-managed IT services operate 24/7 regardless of your internal team working hours. Your team handles security-related tasks during business hours while SADOS provides continuous monitoring, alert triage, and emergency response around the clock. If your sole IT person leaves unexpectedly, our team provides continuity of operations while you recruit a replacement.
Co-managed IT services pricing reflects the reduced scope compared to fully managed service since your internal team handles some functions. Per-device pricing applies only to the services SADOS delivers. The scope and pricing are customized during the proposal process based on the specific responsibilities each team assumes. This approach ensures you pay only for the capabilities your internal team cannot cover.
Yes. Transition from co-managed IT services to full managed IT is straightforward. We already know your environment, your documentation is current in our systems, and security tools are fully deployed. Expanding scope means adjusting the service agreement and taking over responsibilities your internal team previously handled. No re-onboarding, no new agent deployments, and no documentation gaps to fill.
