    How we start

    Every engagement begins the same way: a conversation with the founder. If it is a plausible fit, the next step is a paid starting engagement that produces real written findings. The initial conversation and the paid work are two clearly separate things.

    Free and conversational

    The first conversation

    A short call with the founder to hear what you are trying to accomplish and share whether we look like a fit. It is a conversation, not an assessment.

    What happens on the call

    • A conversation with the founder about what you are trying to accomplish
    • A shared read on whether we are a plausible fit
    • Agreement on which paid starting engagement, if any, would fit next

    What the first conversation is not

    We keep evidence gathering and written findings inside a paid starting engagement so the work stays honest and the boundaries are clear.

    • No credentials or account access are requested
    • No scans or evidence collection
    • No remote access to devices or systems
    • No written technical findings or recommendations

    Paid starting engagements

    Real work with written findings

    After the first conversation, most organizations choose one of three paid starting engagements. Each produces a written deliverable.

    IT Risk Review

    For organizations that need a broad picture of the environment.

    A paid engagement to review the current environment across users, accounts, devices, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, backups, vendors, and documentation. Results include written findings, priority recommendations, and a short improvement roadmap.

    Deliverables

    • Environment review across the areas above
    • Written findings
    • Priority recommendations
    • Short improvement roadmap

    Specialized Project Discovery

    For a defined initiative where the broader IT Risk Review is not the right discovery tool.

    A paid discovery scoped to a specific project such as reporting and data, workflow, migration, infrastructure, or security and identity. Produces requirements, dependencies, scope boundaries, deliverables, and a project proposal.

    Deliverables

    • Requirements and dependencies
    • Scope boundaries
    • Defined deliverables
    • Project proposal

    Takeover Sprint

    For organizations preparing to enter ongoing managed services.

    A paid engagement to establish a documented, supportable baseline before ongoing management begins. Focuses on inventory, administrative access, security and device baseline, backup visibility, support procedures, and a priority remediation plan.

    Deliverables

    • Documentation and system inventory
    • Administrative access and vendor records
    • Security and device baseline
    • Backup visibility
    • Support procedures
    • Priority remediation plan

    From first conversation to ongoing work

    One sequence, four steps. The initial conversation and the paid work stay distinct throughout.

    1. 01

      Conversation

      A short call with the founder to understand the situation and confirm plausible fit. No credentials, scans, or written findings.
    2. 02

      Paid starting engagement

      IT Risk Review, Specialized Project Discovery, or Takeover Sprint. This is real work with a written deliverable.
    3. 03

      Written findings and recommendation

      You receive the deliverable. Recommendations are honest, including recommending no further engagement when that fits.
    4. 04

      Ongoing management or a scoped project

      If the fit is right, we continue into a managed services tier or a defined project.

    Standardization, then customization

    Within the first 180 days, locations are brought toward consistent, supportable standards where practical. Existing infrastructure that is secure, current, and supportable may remain. The goal is not replacement for its own sake.

    Standards may cover identity, devices, networks, Wi-Fi, backups, security settings, documentation, and vendor access. Where a networking refresh is needed, Ubiquiti is a preferred platform.

    Multi-location organizations

    Organizations with multiple offices, program sites, or remote teams face a specific set of coordination issues.

    • Consistent access and offboarding
    • Shared security policies
    • Network and Wi-Fi standards
    • Backup coverage across locations
    • Remote and field staff
    • One current system and vendor record

    Start with the discovery that fits the work

    Bitralynx Solutions can help determine whether the right next step is an IT Risk Review, specialized project discovery, or a Takeover Sprint.
