Managed IT
Keep staff working, reduce repeat issues and stop IT decisions piling up on the MD. We manage users, devices, Microsoft 365, suppliers, support and day-to-day reliability on top of a full cyber security baseline.
See Managed ITWe help founders and managing directors reduce technology risk, stop IT becoming a daily distraction and build a clear plan for where AI improves the way the business runs.
Start with a 15-minute conversation. No audit, no proposal, no pressure.
Most growing businesses reach a point where technology stops helping and starts getting in the way. Repeat issues land on the MD's desk. Microsoft 365 sprawls. Cyber risk feels hard to judge. AI decisions feel urgent but unclear.
We work with UK businesses that need IT, cyber security and AI decisions to support growth rather than slow it down. You get reliable day-to-day IT, a managed cyber security foundation and senior advice on the technology decisions that affect growth: fewer interruptions, stronger Microsoft 365 controls, clearer ownership and a 12 to 24 month plan the leadership team can act on.

Protect My BusinessWork out where AI can change the way the business runs. We map workflows, find the places where AI can remove manual work or improve decisions and build a staged roadmap.
Explore AIGet a clear view of what could hurt the business first. The assessment gives leadership a prioritised risk report, plain-English recommendations and a plan for what to fix first.
Reduce My RiskUse the first call to talk through the issue, the risk and what should happen next.
We look at the systems, users, suppliers and data the business depends on. You get a clear view of the risks that matter, what could cause disruption and what should be fixed first.
Most cyber risk starts with everyday work: passwords, email, file sharing, weak approvals, poor handovers and unclear processes. We put controls and training around the way people actually work.
Microsoft 365 often becomes the centre of the business by accident. We help secure accounts, email, devices, data access, backups and retention so it supports the business without becoming a blind spot.
Support, suppliers, devices, users and cyber security sit under one operating model. When something breaks or creates risk, there is clear ownership and a proper route to fix it.
Backups, monitoring, incident response and recovery planning only matter if the business knows what happens next. We help you define the practical steps before an incident, outage or supplier failure forces the issue.
This is backed by SOC, MDR, endpoint protection, Microsoft 365 security controls, cloud backup, staff training and monitoring. The tools matter, but only after the business risk is clear.
I spent 20+ years on enterprise and government cyber security projects before founding Chapman Technology Partners. The pattern was always clear. Large organisations got properly managed IT, cyber security built in from the start, governance and compliance handled as a working discipline, and technology used to make the business better, not just keep it running. Smaller businesses got something thinner: security as an afterthought, compliance as a paper exercise, IT that closed tickets without changing how work got done.
That gap shouldn't exist. A 25-person business needs the same standard of IT, cyber security and GRC controls as a 5,000-person enterprise. The same UK frameworks apply: Cyber Essentials, ISO 27001, UK GDPR, sector-specific obligations. The same technology that improves operations at scale can do the same for a growing business. I started CTP to close that gap for UK SMBs, with managed IT done properly, security as the foundation, GRC built into the operating model, and technology used to grow the business rather than just protect it.
I had the pleasure of working closely with Greg during the crucial early stages of launching Big Picture Wealth Planning. His expertise was pivotal in establishing our foundation, particularly with his adept management of our Microsoft 365 service and ensuring our hardware and Ring Central telephone system were secure and optimised. Greg's extensive experience in regulated financial services was invaluable, bringing insights and solutions that were instrumental to our success. We continue to benefit from Greg's services to this day, and I highly recommend him to any business owner navigating the complexities of starting up or scaling their venture.David Dodds
We only deliver managed IT on top of a security foundation. That matters because an MSP has privileged access to the systems the business depends on.
We start with risk, workflow and business goals. The tools only matter once the direction is clear.
You get senior technology input without hiring an internal CIO, CISO or AI lead.
The advice is backed by managed IT and cyber security delivery, so the plan does not sit in a drawer.
