LBS Builders Merchants
LBS Builders Merchants is one of the UK's leading independent builders' merchants with a turnover of approximately £100 million. Having opened their doors in 1931, LBS has remained a family-owned business for over 90 years and continues to support local businesses. We have partnered with LBS since 1989 and continue to provide them with co-managed IT services.
What are Co-Managed IT Services?
Co-managed IT allows businesses to utilise the strengths and expertise of both in-house and external IT teams. This hybrid approach enables businesses to experience the convenience and specialist knowledge of external managed service providers (MSPs) whilst maintaining an in-house team.
MSPs can provide support with a whole range of services such as outsourcing your helpdesk, assisting in large IT projects, or advising on cybersecurity. This agreement allows businesses to define what they will achieve and gain from the partnership.
Why Choose Morgan & Morgan For Your Co-Managed IT?
Over recent years, the number of businesses relying on co-managed IT services has grown considerably. But why?
Within this constantly evolving landscape, businesses are seeking more support from external partners. Whether they are searching for added expertise, more scalability or even just increased security, Morgan & Morgan are here to help. We come equipped with all the skills required to keep up with the speed of technological change especially with the rise of the cloud and importance of cybersecurity in recent years.
Co-managed IT services are also a great way to fill any knowledge gaps that may be present within your current team. We can provide additional support and expertise on new projects or can look after your more basic tasks leaving your internal staff available for more complex IT projects. We can build a partnership that works for you.
One of the key benefits of co-managed IT is scalability. As your company grows, so do the services and support. Working with Morgan & Morgan means that you have the flexibility to add and remove services on an as-needed basis. With co-managed IT you get more than just a service provider; you get a partner. This collaboration allows us to become more agile as we become an integral part of your IT team further enhancing the work of both sides.
Oftentimes, organisations fall into the naïve assumption that they are safe from cyber-attacks. Every business, no matter the size, is at threat. Partnering with a managed service provider supplies your company with access to the latest cyber security strategies and systems. Morgan & Morgan take a proactive approach to all cyber security needs. We support our partners with everything from cyber essentials certifications through to performing penetration tests and are always available to offer further support and advice.
