Interim IT Support – Reliable Operations and Satisfied Users

When critical systems go down and operations come to a standstill, an interim IT support team immediately takes charge of the service desk and troubleshooting, restores operations, and keeps users productive from the very first hour.

150+ successfully completed interim assignments

A tailored process, a transparent partnership, and an exclusive network of interim leaders

“I’m proud of our strong network of interim consultants—we respond quickly, accurately, and with transparent pricing.”

That’s why companies choose our interim IT support

Candidates ready in 1–3 days

We maintain an up-to-date network of 8,000 experienced IT specialists. When you call, we conduct a needs assessment, filter for the right platforms and industry requirements, and present only consultants who are already familiar with your systems. The result is minimal onboarding and a service desk that returns to normal operations before the users’ queue of issues has a chance to grow too long.

Transparent 80/20 model

Our pricing model is simple: 80% of the fee goes to the consultant, and 20% to us. No setup fees, no licensing surcharges, and no vague “handling fees.” The finance department can immediately see how the costs are allocated and compare them to in-house staffing—perfect for budget tracking and auditing.

A dedicated contact throughout the entire process

From your first call until the support consultant arrives on-site, you’ll have the same advisor working with you: available evenings and weekends, up to date on your SLAs, and ready to adjust staffing levels if your needs change. You’ll avoid red tape and gain a partner who has in-depth IT support expertise and communicates in your language.

Why choose us?

When companies grow rapidly, leadership needs can change overnight. An interim manager is a flexible solution that ensures operations continue to run smoothly, regardless of the challenges.

The Benefits of Interim IT Support

Immediate stability in the service desk

The consultant takes over ticket management, prioritization rules, and escalation processes starting on day one. Users experience faster response times, while critical incidents are handled in a structured manner. This builds trust in the IT department and minimizes costly business disruptions.

Effective fault management and proactive maintenance

Drawing on experience from a variety of environments, the interim consultant identifies patterns in recurring issues and suggests patches and automations that reduce future incidents. Proactive operational monitoring and clear documentation result in fewer emergency call-outs and better planning of change windows.

Outsourcing that frees up internal resources

When support volume peaks, development and project teams are often stretched thin. By bringing in outside support, internal specialists can refocus on innovation, migrations, and strategic work. This shortens project timelines and maximizes the return on the investment portion of the IT budget.

The recruitment process

Our recruitment process is fast, streamlined, and tailored to your needs. We ensure you find the right candidate quickly through a clear job description and an efficient screening process.

1. Scope of Work & Objectives

We listen carefully to your expectations, goals, and current situation. A job description or job posting can serve as a basis, and we conduct a structured interview with the client.

2. Search for candidates in the network

We select and contact approximately 20 suitable candidates. We conduct interviews with the relevant and available consultants we identify, based on the job description.

3. Quality Assurance

The top 3–4 candidates are presented to the client within 1–3 days. A follow-up meeting with the client is held to finalize the selection and plan the next steps.

4. Customer Interview – Background Check

The client conducts interviews, any tests they may require, and interviews with the candidate’s grandparents. References are checked as needed, and a background check may be conducted on the final candidate.

5. Contract

We draw up a contract specifying the duration and scope of the assignment, always with a transparent pricing structure so that both the client and the consultant know how the fee is allocated. We always pay 80% of the fee to the consultant. If the client is dissatisfied, the contract can be terminated with a maximum of one month’s notice.

6. Assignments are carried out

Throughout the project, we maintain regular contact with both the client and the consultant to address any questions or gather feedback necessary for a successful collaboration.

7. Conclusion – Potential Employment

The assignment is concluded as specified in the agreement; however, if the assignment was intended to lead to employment and both parties agree, it will result in a hiring. The recruitment fee decreases the longer the assignment has lasted.

Qualities that set our IT support consultants apart

Comprehensive technical toolkit

Our consultants are proficient in Windows, macOS, and mobile environments, and have experience with Office 365, Azure, VMware, Cisco, and popular ITSM systems such as ServiceNow and Jira. Their broad technical expertise enables them to resolve the majority of issues without further escalation.

Educational Customer Focus

Technical issues are just as much about people as they are about computers. The consultant communicates solutions in a language the user understands, writes clear guides, and coaches internal superusers. This boosts digital literacy and reduces the support workload in the long run.

Problem-solver under pressure

When systems go down, a cool head and a systematic approach are essential. Our interim specialists follow established ITIL processes, meticulously log their actions, and collaborate with operations and security teams to restore services quickly. Their experience in high-pressure environments ensures that work continues in an organized manner even during critical incidents.
