IT Health Check
How healthy is your IT environment — really?
An independent, best-practice review of your full technology environment — infrastructure, security, recovery, identity, and spend — that replaces assumptions with evidence. Delivered as a scored, prioritized, plain-English action plan your leadership team can act on.
Why it matters
Most IT environments run on assumptions. Yours shouldn't.
Configurations drift. Documentation goes stale. Staff and vendors turn over. The monthly MSP report says green, but no one outside the MSP has verified it. Meanwhile the business keeps growing — and the gap between what leadership believes about IT and what's actually true keeps widening.
A Health Check closes that gap. It's an independent review, conducted by an executive who has owned environments like yours, measured against the same best-practice benchmarks used in formal audits — without the audit's cost or formality.
It's also the single best preparation for what comes next: a budget cycle, an insurance renewal, an audit, a leadership change, or a serious conversation with your MSP.
Especially valuable if…
- Configurations haven't been independently validated in over a year
- Your team — or your MSP — is stretched thin
- Security and recovery practices rest on assumptions, not tests
- Growth, turnover, or new systems have outpaced documentation
- A budget, renewal, audit, or leadership transition is coming
What we examine
A structured look across the whole environment.
Scope is tailored to your organization; a typical Health Check covers all six areas.
Infrastructure & Lifecycle
Servers, network, endpoints, and platforms — capacity, age, support status, and the risks hiding in end-of-life gear.
Security Baseline
Identity, MFA coverage, endpoint protection, email security, and patching — verified against best-practice benchmarks.
Backup & Recovery
What's protected, what isn't, whether restores have ever been tested, and whether recovery objectives are realistic.
Identity & Access
Who can touch what: account sprawl, privileged access, departed-employee cleanup, and access review practices.
Cloud & Spend
Cloud and SaaS posture, licensing, and the spend that quietly accumulates without an owner watching it.
Documentation & Process
Runbooks, asset inventory, vendor contracts, and the operational discipline that determines how fast problems get fixed.
What you receive
Findings you can act on the same week.
Scored findings report
Every area rated against best practice, with the evidence behind each rating — no black-box scores.
Prioritized action plan
Remediation ranked by risk and effort: what to fix this month, this quarter, and this year — with budget guidance.
Executive summary
A plain-English briefing written for owners, partners, and boards — not for the server room.
Working session
A live walkthrough with your leadership (and your MSP, if you'd like) to align everyone on the plan.
