IT Audits & Data Centre Operations

Expert IT Assessments, Infrastructure Reviews & Operational Support for Growing Businesses

Modern businesses depend on reliable IT systems — networks, servers, storage, connectivity, security, and cloud infrastructure. When something isn’t performing properly, it affects productivity, staff, customers, and the overall flow of the business.

With over 15 years of experience supporting enterprise IT environments and operating within data centres, we provide professional IT audits and operational reviews for small businesses and organisations that need clear answers, practical improvements and honest recommendations.

This service is ideal for businesses that want to understand what they have, what’s holding them back, and how to improve it without unnecessary spending.

What Is an IT Audit?

An IT audit is a structured review of your current systems, focusing on:

  • Network performance and bottlenecks

  • WiFi stability and coverage

  • Security risks and vulnerabilities

  • Hardware age, reliability, and capacity

  • Backup strategy and disaster readiness

  • Cloud services and how they integrate

  • Data flow and operational efficiency

  • Cabling, infrastructure and layout

  • Remote access and hybrid working setups

Instead of fixing one-off issues, an IT audit reviews the entire environment and provides a clear plan for improvement.

What We Assess During an Audit

Network Health & Performance

We check the structure and stability of your network, including:

  • Router & firewall configuration

  • Switches and cabling

  • VLANs and segmentation

  • WiFi access points

  • Bandwidth usage

  • Interference or congestion

  • Guest vs staff networks

  • Internet reliability

You receive a clear explanation of what’s working — and what isn’t.

Security & Access Review

We assess vulnerabilities such as:

  • Outdated hardware

  • Weak passwords

  • Unsecured access points

  • Guest networks sharing staff resources

  • Remote access that isn’t secured correctly

  • Devices with no updates or end-of-life status

We provide realistic, affordable steps to improve security without over-complicating your system.

Hardware Condition & Capacity

We review:

  • Servers

  • NAS devices

  • PCs and laptops

  • Switches

  • Routers

  • CCTV/NVR setups

  • VoIP equipment

  • UPS systems (power backup)

This identifies ageing equipment, bottlenecks, and devices at risk of failure.

Backup & Recovery

We look at:

  • On-site backups

  • Cloud backup systems

  • Recovery process

  • Data retention

  • Business continuity

Many small businesses don’t discover gaps until after data loss occurs — we help you avoid that.

Cloud & Software Usage

We evaluate:

  • Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or similar platforms

  • Cloud storage

  • Collaboration tools

  • Licensing optimisation

  • User access and permissions

We ensure you’re using cloud services efficiently and securely.

Data Centre Operations Support

With background in critical enterprise environments, we also provide consultancy and operational support related to data centre infrastructure, including:

  • Rack planning and layout

  • Equipment installation guidance

  • Structured cabling best practices

  • Power distribution and resilience

  • Cooling considerations

  • Hardware lifecycle planning

  • Migration planning (on-site to colocation & vice versa)

  • Capacity, growth and load assessments

  • Change control and operational processes

This service bridges the gap between small-business needs and enterprise-level standards.

What You Receive

After the audit, you receive a clear, easy-to-understand report covering:

  • Findings

  • Risks

  • Bottlenecks

  • Security concerns

  • Recommended improvements

  • Suggested replacements (only if necessary)

  • Priority levels — what needs fixing now, soon, or later

No jargon. No long-winded documents. Just a clean, actionable plan.
