A clear, structured IT audit is often the fastest way to understand where your IT infrastructure environment stands, what is holding it back and what really needs to change. Let’s go beyond purely technical checks. We look at your systems, your processes, your needs and how your team works because real performance depends on all of these elements working together.
Whether you’re facing recurring issues, planning a major project or need a neutral evaluation before making key decisions, an audit provides the clarity you need to move forward with confidence, without adding complexity or bias.
A comprehensive evaluation
An IT Audit includes analysis of your infrastructure, cloud environment, security posture, configurations, documentation, workflows and roles to identify risks, inefficiencies and improvement opportunities. Every finding is prioritised, explained in clear terms and backed by practical recommendations you can act on immediately.

Insights that guide decision-making
The goal is not just to point out issues, it’s to help you make informed and strategic decisions. You can expect a clear and structured report that highlights what matters most, why it matters and what to do next. No jargon, no generic templates, no “tick-box” audits.
This gives you a roadmap to stabilise, modernise or scale your environment, based on your organisation’s goals and constraints.
When an audit service is the right choice
An audit is particularly valuable if you are:
- Preparing for a migration, upgrade or restructuring
- Building a long-term IT strategy
- Recovering from recurring incidents or unclear responsibilities
- Evaluating your team’s structure and skills
- Integrating or separating business units
- Facing compliance, performance or security concerns
- Standardisation accros multiple offices: it starts with visibility
- Unsure where to start or what to prioritise
What we need from you (typical inputs)
- Read‑only access to M365/Entra tenant (limited scope)
- High‑level network/inventory overview (if available)
- Current backup scope & test evidence (if available)
- 1–3 short stakeholder conversations (ops/finance/IT/provider)
A collaborative and transparent approach
I work closely with your internal teams throughout the process. The audit is conducted in a remote-first model, with optional on-site sessions when they bring meaningful value (workshops, interviews, environment walkthroughs). In some cases, it might be preferable to conduct a full audit in person.
Outcomes & deliverables
- A concise report that highlights what matters (risks, gaps, quick wins)
- A prioritised action plan (risk, impact, effort, cost)
- Clear, business‑friendly recommendations you can implement internally or with your partners
- Optional handover and governance setup if you need continued guidance
Everything is shared in clear, accessible language so you know exactly what’s happening, why it matters, and how to move forward.

Quick FAQ
What access do you need for the audit?
Read‑only access to your M365/Entra tenant (scoped), basic network/inventory information, and short interviews with 1–3 stakeholders. No privileged access is required for the assessment phase.
How do you prioritise findings?
We score each item by risk, business impact, effort and cost. The action plan balances quick wins with foundational fixes that reduce future risk.
Will this disrupt day‑to‑day operations?
The audit is remote‑first and lightweight. We schedule short sessions, avoid intrusive scans unless requested and coordinate with providers to minimise impact.
How is pricing structured?
Fixed‑scope where feasible, or day‑rate with a cost cap for flexibility. Hybrid models are available when scope may evolve.
Do you work with our existing suppliers?
Yes — while staying vendor‑neutral the goal is to collaborate with your current partners or help you find the right one. The focus is on decisions you can sustain.
How is the audit delivered?
Remote‑first, lightweight, on‑site only when it adds value.
