Laptops, PCs and devices for your team
The right computer for each role, ready to work when it arrives and replaced before it slows everyone down. We advise on buying or leasing, set new devices up automatically and look after them through warranty to secure disposal.
Laptops, PCs & devices for small and medium businesses
Buying computers looks simple until you have a few dozen of them. Different models bought at different times, warranties that expired without anyone noticing, a laptop that took two days to set up for a new starter and a pile of old machines in a cupboard because nobody is sure what is still on them. Every one of those costs time, frustrates staff and leaves gaps in your security that are easy to miss.
We manage devices as a lifecycle. We help you pick a small set of business-grade models that suit each role, then supply or arrange leasing for them. New devices are registered with Microsoft's device management tools, so when a staff member opens the box and signs in, the laptop applies your settings, installs your apps and turns on encryption without a technician touching it. Staff can be working within an hour of unpacking it, at the office or at home.
Every device is recorded with its owner, purchase date and warranty end. Failures under warranty are logged with the manufacturer for you. Replacement is planned into your budget a year ahead, and retired machines are wiped to a recognised standard or physically destroyed, with a certificate for your records. That record matters under the Privacy Act, because a laptop sold online with client files still on it is a breach. It also means you can answer quickly when an insurer or auditor asks how company devices are tracked and retired.

A live list of every device, who has it, when it was bought and when its warranty ends, available to you at any time.

Hardware faults diagnosed and logged with the manufacturer, with a loan device arranged where we can.

Who is device supply and lifecycle for?
Talk to us about devices if:
- Setting up a new laptop takes your team half a day or more
- You don't have a reliable list of who has which computer
- Several machines are past warranty or no longer get Windows updates
- You would rather spread device costs monthly than buy outright
- Old computers are sitting in a cupboard with company data on them
Not sure where to start?
Our free IT health check looks at your devices, accounts, backups, security and network. You get a short written report with what is working, what is at risk and a price to fix it. No obligation.

Should we buy or lease?
Leasing spreads the cost and makes regular replacement easier. Buying is usually cheaper overall if you keep machines for four years or more. We set out both with real figures so you can decide.
Do you sell computers?
Yes. We supply business-grade laptops, desktops, monitors and accessories at quoted prices. Hardware is not included in our monthly plans and is always quoted in writing first.
Can we use computers we already own?
Usually, yes, if they are business editions of Windows or managed Macs and still receive security updates. We check each one and enrol it in device management.
What does zero-touch setup mean for us?
A new laptop can be shipped straight to a staff member, even at home. When they sign in with their work account, it sets itself up with your apps and settings. A technician only steps in if something needs attention.
How often should computers be replaced?
Most business laptops give good service for about four years. We replace earlier when a machine is too slow for its role or falls out of security updates, and plan it into the budget.
What happens if a laptop is stolen?
Because it is encrypted and managed, we can lock or wipe it remotely and block its access to company accounts. Staff files saved to OneDrive are restored to the replacement.
Do you look after Macs and phones as well?
Yes. Macs, iPhones and Android phones used for work can be managed with the same policies and recorded in the same asset register.
