Some IT work isn’t “support”—it’s a planned change with real business impact: migrations, security upgrades, network refreshes, new locations, or modernization initiatives. Acumen delivers IT project services for small and mid-sized organizations, with a security-first mindset and clear documentation at every step.
If you’re only using IT when something is broken, you’re missing the bigger opportunity: projects that improve reliability, reduce downtime, and strengthen security.
You’ll get the most value from an IT project engagement when you need to:
Replace aging servers, storage, switches, or Wi-Fi
Migrate to Microsoft 365 / cloud services
Improve identity security (MFA, conditional access, device controls)
Reduce ransomware risk with modern backup + recovery
Build a repeatable security program (scanning, hardening, incident readiness)
Open a new office, relocate, or integrate a new site
Document and standardize your environment for scale and compliance
Projects vary, but our outcomes are consistent:
A clear plan (scope, timeline, milestones, risks, dependencies)
A documented design (so you’re not “mystery-admin” dependent)
Clean execution with tested cutovers and rollback plans
Security baked in (not bolted on at the end)
Operational handoff (support readiness, admin training, final documentation)
We track work, communicate progress, and keep stakeholders aligned—so projects don’t drift or stall.
Modern switching, Wi-Fi, segmentation, and resilient connectivity—built for performance and security.
Common deliverables:
Network diagrams + device inventory
VLAN / firewall policy design
Secure remote access approach
Monitoring and alerting alignment
Improve productivity and control with properly designed Microsoft 365 foundations (identity, access, device posture, collaboration governance).
Examples:
Tenant hardening and baseline security
Email migration planning + cutover
SharePoint/Teams rollout governance and structure
Refresh your compute and storage stack and eliminate single points of failure.
Examples:
Virtualization refresh and capacity planning
Storage modernization
Standardized patching + maintenance approach
Security projects designed to reduce real risk and support audit readiness.
We have experience supporting compliance-driven environments (including HIPAA and PCI-style concerns) and can help you mature controls without killing productivity.
Examples:
MFA rollout + conditional access
Endpoint protection / EDR implementation
Vulnerability scanning + remediation planning
Incident response readiness (people + process + tooling)
Build recovery you can trust—tested, documented, and aligned to your tolerance for downtime and data loss.
Examples:
Backup modernization + immutable options
Recovery testing and runbooks
DR architecture and failover planning
Design and implement business communications upgrades (VoIP/phone systems) and the network requirements that support them.
Infrastructure planning and execution for relocations, expansions, and new offices—so Day 1 works.
We learn your environment, constraints, and goals—then define scope that’s actually achievable.
We map the implementation path, identify risks, and align the project to security best practices.
Work is executed in controlled phases with clear communication and change management.
We validate outcomes, document what matters, and set your team up for operational success (whether we support it ongoing or not).
Established experience since 1994, working with diverse businesses to optimize technology and security.
Security focus and comfort in compliance-driven environments.
Documentation and transparency: you know what was done, why it was done, and what to do next.
Operate as an extension of your team with solutions tailored to your needs and risk profile.
If you’re planning an upgrade, migration, or security initiative, we’ll help you scope it correctly and execute it cleanly.

Both. Many clients start with a project and continue with ongoing support; others use us for targeted expertise.
Project pricing typically depends on scope, complexity, environment readiness, and timeline constraints. We aim to define scope clearly so there are no surprises.
Yes—projects often succeed fastest when internal stakeholders and external specialists collaborate.
Yes. We treat security as a requirement, not an add-on—especially for identity, endpoint, and cloud projects.
Yes—handoff documentation is part of a successful project, and we prioritize it.
You serve a diverse client base and adapt solutions to each client’s needs and risk profile.
