Every Step. Every Deliverable. Every Timeline.

Our onboarding spans five phases over 30 to 45 days depending on your organization’s
complexity. Every phase has defined deliverables so you always know exactly where you
are and what comes next.

Day 1
Welcome and Immediate Coverage

Emergency Ticket Access Activated

Your designated contacts receive immediate help desk access on day one. You are never without coverage during the transition. Emergency escalation paths are established before your previous provider is offboarded.

  • Designated contacts credentialed
  • Ticket portal access granted and tested
  • Emergency phone line provided

Welcome Call and Team Introduction

Your dedicated account manager and project manager conduct a welcome call within 24 hours of contract signing. We introduce the team, confirm your primary contacts, and walk through the next 30 days.

  • Account manager introduction
  • Project manager assigned
  • 30-day plan reviewed

Prior Provider Coordination Begins

We initiate coordination with your current IT provider or internal team for structured knowledge transfer, requesting documentation, access credentials, and system inventories to eliminate transition gaps.

  • Transition plan communicated to prior provider
  • Document and credential request initiated
  • Handoff schedule established
Week 1
Kickoff and Discovery

Kickoff Meeting with Stakeholders

Environment Discovery and Audit

Comprehensive technical discovery of your environment including network topology, endpoint inventory, server infrastructure, cloud platforms, applications, vendors, and current security posture. This is the foundation for everything that follows.

  • Network and infrastructure mapping
  • Endpoint and server inventory
  • Application and licensing audit
  • Vendor and contract review
  • Identity and access management review
  • Current security controls assessment

RMM and Security Tool Deployment Begins

Our Remote Monitoring and Management platform and initial security tooling are deployed to your environment, giving us visibility and beginning the monitoring that will be in place through the life of the engagement.

  • RMM agent deployment
  • Initial monitoring baselines set
  • EDR deployment initiated
Weeks 2-3

  • EDR deployed to all managed endpoints
  • Patch management cadence configured

Documentation Build

We begin building your environment runbook capturing network topology, system configurations, vendor contacts, credential vault entries, escalation procedures, and recovery information. This document belongs to you.

  • Network topology documented
  • Vendor contacts and contracts recorded
  • Credential vault populated
  • Recovery procedures drafted

Alert and Monitoring Configuration

Monitoring thresholds are configured based on your environment baseline. Alert policies, escalation rules, and response playbooks are established so our SOC team knows exactly how to respond to events in your specific environment.

  • Alert thresholds tuned to your baseline
  • Escalation rules defined
  • Response playbooks built

Compliance Assessment (If Applicable)

For clients with HIPAA, CMMC, SOC 2, or other regulatory requirements, we conduct the initial compliance gap assessment during this phase and produce a prioritized remediation roadmap before onboarding is complete.

  • Framework-specific gap assessment
  • Risk-prioritized remediation roadmap
  • Compliance baseline documented
Week 3-4

Leadership Briefing

Your account manager conducts a separate briefing with leadership covering the monitoring posture, initial security findings, compliance status, and any open items from discovery that require attention or budget discussion.

  • Security posture summary delivered
  • Open discovery items reviewed
  • Compliance status briefed
  • Budget discussion items identified

  • First monthly report scheduled

Our Commitments to Every New Client

No Coverage Gaps

Emergency ticket access is activated on day one. You are never without support during the transition, even before full onboarding is complete.

You Own Your Documentation

Your environment runbook belongs to you, not to us. If you ever leave, your documentation leaves with you. No leverage, no lock-in.

Dedicated Project Manager

Every onboarding has a dedicated project manager accountable for the timeline and proactive communication. Not a shared resource. One owner.

Security from Day One

We do not wait for onboarding to complete before starting security controls. EDR, MFA, and monitoring deployment begins in week one.

Transparent Progress Tracking

Weekly status updates throughout onboarding with clear visibility into what is complete, what is in progress, and what is coming next.

Proactive Communication

If we discover something during discovery that needs attention, you hear about it immediately. Not in a report 30 days later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our onboarding runs 30 to 60 days depending on environment complexity. It includes an infrastructure discovery and documentation sprint, monitoring agent deployment, help desk configuration, communication workflow setup, a dedicated onboarding project manager, and a final handoff meeting where we walk through your environment runbook and introduce your account team.
We need network access credentials or read-only discovery access, your existing documentation if any, a primary internal contact for technical coordination, and a signed agreement. We handle everything else. Most clients are surprised by how little we need from them to get started.
For most environments, monitoring coverage is live within the first 5 to 10 business days after kickoff. This includes endpoint agents, server monitoring, network device polling, and Microsoft 365 alert integration. Full documentation takes the remainder of the onboarding window.
You have a dedicated onboarding project manager from day one. After onboarding completes, you transition to your account manager and service delivery team. You will never be handed off to a general queue — your account team owns your relationship.
