Managed Operations and Maintenance (O&M) reduces the burden on an organization’s internal staff for patch and vulnerability management, event monitoring and alert management, performance optimization, disaster recovery and quarterly reporting recommendations to improved security compliance while reducing operational downtime.

We offer three options for Managed Operations & Maintenance: Essentials, Standard and Premier.

    • Manageable cost to match the size of your organization and infrastructure.

    • Annual contract for fixed cost model (monthly recurring).

    • Flexible and more cost effective than in-house IT support technicians.

    • Experienced, qualified and certified technology professionals.

    • Improved compliance and minimizing data security risks.

    • Quarterly meetings to discuss operations/risks/roadmap.

    • Infrastructure lifecycle management for existing hardware/software solutions.

    • This service supports virtual servers, physical servers, network infrastructure and storage hardware.

    • All supported devices must have active maintenance/support contracts (which Lion Solutions can assist in procuring).

    • If any hardware is End of Support Life or entering the End of Support lifecycle, we will identify those devices and work through a procurement strategy for successor product or subscription.

    • During the discovery call there would be more clarity and adjustments to pricing based on existing infrastructure and requirements mapped toward the support plan options.

    *Note: Most infrastructure platforms will be managed and supported under any Hybrid/Onsite support model contract.  Will discuss during discovery.
