Managed IT Services
Many Racine consulting engagements lead naturally into ongoing managed IT. After we assess your environment and build a roadmap, we can execute the plan and manage your infrastructure going forward — same team, same knowledge, seamless transition from strategy to operations.
Cybersecurity
Security gap analysis and remediation planning for Racine businesses. We identify vulnerabilities in your current environment, prioritize them by risk level, and provide a clear action plan — whether you implement it yourself, hire us, or bring in another provider.
Cloud & Microsoft 365
Cloud readiness assessments and migration planning. We evaluate your current infrastructure, identify workloads suitable for cloud migration, estimate costs, and build a phased migration plan that minimizes disruption to your Racine operations.
Network Management
Network architecture reviews and design for Racine businesses expanding, renovating, or modernizing. We assess your current topology, identify bottlenecks and single points of failure, and design a network that supports your operations today and scales for growth.
VoIP Phone Services
Phone system consulting for Racine businesses outgrowing their current setup. We evaluate hosted VoIP, Teams Phone, and SIP trunking options against your requirements and budget, then recommend the solution that fits — not the one with the highest commission.
IT Compliance
Compliance readiness assessments for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, CMMC, and industry-specific regulations. We evaluate your current compliance posture, identify gaps, and provide a remediation roadmap with realistic timelines and cost estimates.

Quick IT Tips
Practical advice for Racine businesses — whether you work with us or not.
- •If you are acquiring a Racine business, request a full inventory of IT assets, software licenses, and vendor contracts before closing. These items have real cost implications that should be factored into the purchase price.
- •Before expanding to a new location, get a technology budget estimate. Networking, phones, workstations, licensing, and security for a new site typically cost more than most business owners expect.
- •Ask your current IT provider for a network diagram showing every device, connection, and IP address. If they cannot produce one, you have no documentation — and that is a liability.
- •Review your software licensing annually. Racine businesses commonly pay for licenses on former employees, duplicate subscriptions, or features that nobody uses. A licensing audit often pays for itself in the first month.
- •If a vendor recommends replacing everything with their solution, get a second opinion. Good IT consulting identifies what works, what does not, and what to prioritize — not a rip-and-replace that maximizes the consultant's invoice.
