Practical IT care for small businesses
Your business computers, proactively cared for.
Technology problems interrupt business. Amminist is developing practical monitoring and maintenance services to help smaller businesses keep their computers healthy, address routine issues, and make informed technology decisions.
Who this is for
Practical support for the way smaller businesses work.

- Businesses with approximately 5–25 Windows computers
- Organizations without dedicated internal IT staff
- Owners and managers who want fewer technology surprises
- Businesses looking for practical, clear guidance
These are starting points, not rigid eligibility requirements.

How engagement works
Start with a useful conversation.
The first conversation is exploratory. It does not constitute a formal technical assessment or commit either side to a service.
Discover
Understand the business, devices, and current technology challenges.
Assess
Review requirements and identify an appropriate maintenance approach.
Propose
Present a clearly scoped service with pricing and responsibilities.
Onboard
Configure agreed tools and establish procedures after the service is contracted.
Clear boundaries
Simple expectations matter.
- Pricing is based on your environment and requirements.
- Monitoring and maintenance do not replace backup or cybersecurity services.
- Emergency response and after-hours support are not automatically included.
- Capabilities and response commitments will be specified in a written agreement.
Common questions
Answers before you decide.
Do we need a full-time IT person?
No. This offering is being designed for smaller businesses that want practical maintenance help without adding a full-time IT role.
How many computers can you support?
The initial focus is approximately 5–25 Windows computers, but the right scope depends on your environment and needs.
Will you need access to our computers?
Potentially, if you choose a service that includes monitoring or maintenance. Access, tools, and responsibilities would be agreed before onboarding.
Can you work alongside our existing IT provider?
Yes. We can discuss a clearly defined role alongside an internal employee or outside provider.
Is this the same as cybersecurity or backup?
No. Monitoring and maintenance do not replace backup, security, or incident-response services. Those needs should be discussed separately.
How much does it cost?
Pricing depends on the number of computers, requirements, and agreed responsibilities. We will provide pricing in a written proposal.
What happens after we contact you?
We will review what you share and arrange an exploratory conversation if it seems useful. That conversation is not a formal technical assessment.
Discuss your needs
Tell us what your technology is like today.
Share a little about your business, computers, and current support arrangement. We will discuss whether this developing offering could be a good fit.
