What Isn’t Included?

There are a small number of services and solutions we can provide that are not covered by our standard monthly fees. These include:

Project & Integration Work – Bid acceptance only: This is any work that is not designed to support existing systems, or that is covered in the above “IT Services Suite”. Projects are outside the scope of this agreement and as such will be quoted and invoiced separately.

Line of Business Applications or Products: These are applications such as custom accounting packages, CRM software, ERP software, etc. that are specific to your business’ processes but are not provided as one of our standard software services.

Hardware Replacement Cost: Hardware may need to be replaced as the result of a warranty, extended warranty, manufacturer’s support contract, on-site spares, or purchases as needed.

Cabling: This is any instance of running cables to or from devices for the purposes of resolving connectivity to areas not currently serviced by a physical cable. While we will strive to correct connectivity issues to new or existing devices without having to purchase or run new cable, any additional projects involving these services will be subject to surcharge.

Business Improvement Results

Our suite of IT services and solutions has simplified and streamlined IT for countless businesses just like yours. Most clients see a reduction in IT issues, an improvement of their IT support process, and a stabilization of their IT expenses month to month. This means their companies are more productive, encounter less downtime, and can more accurately budget for their ongoing IT support costs and occasional IT upgrades.

Furthermore, the value of our services will skyrocket as you grow your business. While you may consider your IT systems to be relatively simple right now, they become more complex at an accelerating rate as you bring on more staff members, grow your client base and expand your business. Overtime, our support will only become more valuable as our team scales up your IT in line with your business.

The key is to understand that when our services are at their most effective, you won’t think about your IT as often as you used to; there will be fewer issues and minimal interruptions. Don’t forget: you’re hiring us at around 50% the cost of managing your own IT team internally.

Return On Investment

While the benefits of a comprehensive IT management program like ours take on many different qualities and can be difficult to precisely quantify, one of the best ways to do so is to consider the cost of downtime. Downtime is the term used for any period of time in which a computer or computer systems are offline and unavailable. In a nutshell, downtime occurs whenever you’re trying to use your IT systems, but can’t.

During that time, you still have to cover all the expenses of running a business without the revenue you would usually generate. Even if downtime does not grind everything to a halt, some of your staff will have to divert themselves from their normal work to mitigate the problem—again reducing productivity.

Here are some studies showing how much time is lost every day due to IT downtime:

Calculating downtime is a unique equation for any given company, but for the sake of this consideration, let’s lowball the above averages and use 19 minutes a day for average downtime and 10 minutes to get back on task, totaling 29 minutes:

  • Employee IT Downtime Cost:
    • 29 minutes x 5 days week x 52 weeks x 100 employees = 754,000 minutes = 12,566 hours
    • $20 avg per hour x 75% of total hours down =9,424 = $188,480
    • Benefits/Training 20% additional cost: $37,696
  • Management IT Downtime Cost:
    • $26 avg per hour x 25% of total hours down=3,142 = $81,692
    • Benefits/Training 20% additional cost: $16,338
    • Total Downtime Cost to Organization: $324,206

As you can see, downtime is expensive. With All Mountain Technologies managing your IT, you will encounter much less downtime, and it will be addressed much more quickly. This keeps your business productive, minimizing the downtime costs you’d otherwise face.

What’s Next?

All that’s left is to get started. The process of remediating and stabilizing your IT environment based on the results of our initial assessment can take up to three months to complete. Once we have confidently stabilized your environment, we will handle both the day-to-day maintenance tasks and macro management responsibilities.

We’ll now begin what we call “onboarding”, and we’ll say it right now: this can be a frustrating process. You’ll have to take some time to detail all your accounts, passwords, domains, and other technical details that we’ll need to properly take care of your IT. When you get that documentation, please fill it out to the best of your ability, and then we’ll sort out the rest with you directly. We’ll ask you to attend four (4) mandatory meetings in the first month. These are a critical part of how we get to know your business, your staff and your culture. It is where you and your dedicated Client Service Manager start developing a successful relationship. The point is to do the work now, so you don’t have to later. Our least satisfied clients are those that drag their feet through onboarding and provide critical information on a piecemeal basis over a much longer window. Doing so directly undercuts our ability to provide fast and effective support when you need it.

Give us the go-ahead and we’ll launch our comprehensive stabilization process to get your IT environment into an ideal state to support your daily business operations and long-term growth as an organization.

Fees and Billing

Each month you will receive a detailed invoice which outlines all the charges from the previous month. We offer an online payment portal to view and conveniently pay invoices. Using the auto pay feature makes paying invoices on time easy and automatic from a credit card or bank account. Auto pay enrollment is required.

Collaboration

Over the years we’ve found that our most successful partners are engaged and collaborative and, frankly, where we have ongoing engagement, the tech is easy. A solid relationship built on trust is the most important element that ensures we both succeed and is the focus of our entire staff. We are proud of the team we have built and the level of service they provide and we look forward to utilizing both to help your organization succeed.

Commitment

Although we fully intend for this to be the beginning of a long-term fruitful partnership, we also understand that long-term contracts are prohibitive and unnecessary as long as we fulfill what we have laid out in this document. As your IT partner, we encourage you to share any concerns with us at once so that we may address them right away. We would rather talk issues out in real-time and find the right solution. Terminating party must provide 90 days-notice to cancel.
