Not sure which tier fits? Let's talk.

Boundaries and Scope Discipline

Managed services intentionally do not absorb major change.

Work that exceeds the scope or risk profile of a tier is handled through:

  • A higher managed services tier
  • A short-term change budget
  • A standalone project

This approach protects quality, predictability, and long-term trust.

Change Budgets

Change budgets may be referenced as an option when clients want to accelerate a specific improvement.

Time-bound
Capacity-limited
Focused on a defined theme
Designed to end cleanly

Value and Accountability

Managed services accountability is communicated through:

Clear service definitions
Structured request intake and prioritization
Regular cadence meetings
Monthly activity summaries
Transparent communication

Projects and Managed Services

Clients are not purchasing hours or deliverables. They are purchasing coverage, responsiveness, expertise, and structured collaboration, within clear boundaries.

Projects are offered separately and are used for major change, transformation, or fixed-scope initiatives.
