Managed Services

Reliable operations. Continuous improvement. Confidence that lasts.

Technology doesn't stand still. Platforms evolve, data changes, integrations require attention and business requirements continue to develop.

Beyond implementation

Keep technology working.

Keeping systems reliable and useful requires more than an initial implementation. It requires ongoing oversight, proactive maintenance and a clear understanding of how technology supports the organisation.

Eightysevenpins provides managed services for spatial platforms, data environments and connected technology solutions. We help organisations maintain operational reliability, address issues, manage change and continually improve the capabilities they depend on.

Our approach combines technical oversight with practical problem-solving and a focus on business outcomes.

We help keep your technology working, your data dependable and your capabilities moving forward.

Our managed services

Support across the stack.

01

Spatial Platform Management

Keep your spatial capabilities performing at their best.

Spatial platforms support important operational and analytical activities. Maintaining their reliability requires attention to platform health, data availability, configuration, performance and changing user requirements.

We provide ongoing support for spatial environments, helping organisations maintain service continuity and get greater value from their GIS investments.

Our capabilities include:

  • Spatial platform administration and configuration
  • Platform health and performance monitoring
  • Spatial data publishing and service support
  • User access and permissions administration
  • Incident investigation and issue resolution
  • Platform maintenance and upgrades
  • Configuration management and documentation
  • Continuous improvement and optimisation

Outcome: a well-managed spatial environment that remains reliable, accessible and aligned with business needs.

02

Data Platform Operations

Maintain confidence in the data your organisation depends on.

Data platforms require consistent operational attention to remain dependable, efficient and fit for purpose. Issues with data availability, processing, performance or quality can affect reporting, analysis and downstream business processes.

We help maintain data environments through operational oversight, issue management and continuous improvement.

Our capabilities include:

  • Data platform operational support
  • Data availability and processing checks
  • Data quality issue investigation
  • Performance and capacity assessments
  • Scheduled processing and workload support
  • Platform maintenance coordination
  • Operational documentation and knowledge management
  • Improvement planning and technical recommendations

Outcome: more dependable data operations and greater confidence in the information supporting business decisions.

03

Data Pipeline & Integration Support

Keep information flowing across your systems.

Data pipelines and integrations can be affected by source-system changes, API modifications, data format differences, access issues and evolving business requirements.

We help organisations maintain the reliability of their data flows, investigate failures and reduce recurring operational issues.

Our capabilities include:

  • Pipeline and integration monitoring, where supported
  • Failure investigation and recovery
  • Data reconciliation and validation
  • API and interface support
  • Scheduled job and workflow management
  • Root-cause analysis and recurring issue reduction

Application & Solution Support

Keep business-critical capabilities fit for purpose.

Applications and digital solutions require ongoing support as users, business processes and technology environments change.

We help organisations maintain the solutions we support, resolve technical issues and assess opportunities for improvement.

Our capabilities include:

  • Application and solution support

Platform Lifecycle & Change Management

Manage change without losing sight of continuity.

Technology platforms evolve through upgrades, configuration changes, new integrations and changing operational requirements. Without appropriate planning and oversight, these changes can introduce risk and disruption.

We help organisations manage platform changes in a structured way, balancing reliability with the need to improve and adapt.

Our capabilities include:

  • Platform lifecycle planning
  • Upgrade and release coordination
  • Change assessment and implementation planning
  • Dependency and impact analysis
  • Testing and deployment coordination
  • Technical debt and obsolescence assessments
  • Configuration and documentation management
  • Continuous improvement roadmaps

Outcome: more controlled change, improved maintainability and a clearer path for the ongoing evolution of your technology environment.

A service model that fits your organisation

Support at the level you need.

Not every organisation requires the same level of support. Some need targeted assistance when issues arise, while others benefit from ongoing operational oversight and a structured improvement program. We tailor arrangements around the technologies supported, operational requirements and agreed service expectations.

Advisory & Support

Access specialist expertise to investigate issues, provide technical guidance and help resolve specific challenges.

Ongoing Operational Support

Establish a recurring support arrangement covering agreed platforms, data processes and integrations.

Proactive Management

Introduce scheduled health checks, operational reviews, risk assessments and improvement recommendations.

Continuous Improvement

Identify opportunities to strengthen reliability, improve performance, simplify operations and evolve existing capabilities.

The scope, support hours, response targets and service levels are agreed for each engagement.

Our approach

Maintain. Improve. Evolve.

01 — Understand

We establish the operating context, supported technologies, dependencies, known issues and business-critical requirements.

02 — Stabilise

We address priority issues, clarify operational responsibilities and establish appropriate support processes and baseline health measures.

03 — Manage

We provide the agreed operational support, maintenance, monitoring and issue management required to keep services functioning effectively.

04 — Improve

We review recurring issues, identify risks and recommend practical improvements that strengthen reliability and long-term value.

Built around reliability and accountability

What good service looks like.

Effective managed services depend on clear responsibilities, transparent communication and a shared understanding of what good service looks like. Our approach emphasises:

Operational visibility

Clear reporting on agreed service activities, issues and risks.

Proactive thinking

Identifying potential problems and improvement opportunities before they become larger concerns, where practicable.

Structured change

Managing updates and modifications with appropriate planning and controls.

Knowledge retention

Maintaining useful documentation and reducing unnecessary dependence on individual knowledge.

Continuous improvement

Using operational experience to improve the quality and reliability of supported services.

Let's talk

More than keeping the lights on.

Managed services should do more than maintain the status quo. They should help organisations protect their technology investments, reduce avoidable disruption and build more sustainable capabilities over time.

Eightysevenpins combines ongoing support with a practical improvement mindset, helping clients maintain reliable services today while preparing for tomorrow's requirements.

Keep your systems reliable. Keep your data connected. Keep moving forward.
