Co-Managed IT Los Angeles

🤝 Co-Managed IT Services Los Angeles

Co-Managed IT in Los Angeles, Built Around the Team You Already Have

Your IT lead knows your business better than any outside firm ever will. What they don’t have is a second set of hands in Burbank while they’re in Torrance, someone watching alerts at 2 a.m., or engineers free to finish the migration. That is the part we bring.

  • Your IT lead keeps the decisions and the admin rights
  • Engineers onsite within the hour across LA and Orange County
  • 24/7 security monitoring through Advanced Shield
  • Evening, weekend and vacation coverage your team can count on
  • One shared ticket queue and one set of documentation

One IT Person, Too Many Freeways

Most Los Angeles companies that call us about co-managed IT look the same on paper: one to five people in IT, a headquarters on the Westside or downtown, and a second or third location in the Valley, the South Bay, the San Gabriel Valley or Orange County. The work isn’t beyond the team. The geography is. If you’d rather hand over IT entirely, that’s our fully managed IT service.

A failed switch in a Commerce warehouse and a broken conference room in Century City can happen on the same afternoon, and no one person covers both through LA traffic. Under a co-managed agreement your lead keeps the decisions and we supply the legs: an engineer onsite within the hour anywhere in Los Angeles or Orange County when an issue can’t be fixed remotely, and rotating site visits so smaller offices aren’t forgotten.

  • Six offices across California, headquartered in Los Angeles
  • Help desk staffed by live engineers 24/7
  • Weekly patching on a schedule your IT lead approves
  • Breach notification within 24 hours, not 72

What Your Team Gains

Choose the Layers You Need

Co-managed isn’t one package. Most clients start with one or two of these and add more once the split is working. Your team owns everything you don’t hand us.

Tier 1 Overflow Desk
Password and MFA resets, mailboxes, printers, installs and new-user builds. Your lead sees every ticket and decides what escalates to them.
Evenings & Vacations
Your team goes home at six and takes time off. Your users, your night shift and your servers don’t. We pick up those hours.
Advanced Shield Security
Our Advanced Shield security service runs beside your team: endpoint detection, 24/7 managed response, email and DNS protection, awareness training and backup.
Field Coverage Across LA
Engineers for the sites your team can’t reach in time, from Santa Monica to Pasadena, Long Beach to the Valley, and across Orange County.
Project Engineering
Microsoft 365 and tenant-to-tenant migrations, Azure workloads, network refreshes and server retirements, scoped as projects your lead signs off.
Shared Tickets & Docs
One ticket queue your lead can see and one documentation platform your team can use, so nothing lives in someone’s head.
The Advanced Networks Difference

Where Los Angeles IT Teams Run Thin

These are the gaps internal IT leads in LA tell us about most. Few teams have all six; almost every team has at least two.

01
The Second & Third Site
Branch offices, warehouses and clinics across the county get the same standard as headquarters, with someone who can be there within the hour.
02
Round-the-Clock Security
Detection tools only help if someone is watching. A team of two can’t staff a 24/7 security shift. Advanced Shield does.
03
Projects That Keep Slipping
Migrations and refreshes stall when the help desk eats the week. We put engineers on them with a start date and an end date.
04
Audits & Questionnaires
Cyber-insurance renewals, HIPAA risk analyses and client security reviews arrive with deadlines. We bring the evidence.
05
Wildfire & Shutoff Days
When an evacuation or power shutoff closes a site, engineers in our other offices keep remote access and backups running.
06
Turnover & Time Off
When your one IT person is out, or leaves, the knowledge stays in shared documentation and coverage continues on day one.
The First 90 Days

How Co-Managed Gets Started

No rip-and-replace and no surprises. The first quarter is about getting the split right.

01
Walk Every Site
We visit each location with your IT lead and document the network, servers, licensing and the issues that keep your team up at night.
02
Put the Split in Writing
A responsibility map, task by task, signed off by your lead: what we own, what stays with your team, how hand-offs work.
03
Deploy Beside Your Tools
Monitoring and Advanced Shield go in alongside what you already run, on the schedule your lead approves. We agree up front which tools stay.
04
Report at Day 30
A one-month report showing what we found, what we fixed and what’s next, so leadership sees the value for themselves.
California Compliance

California Rules Your Team Still Answers To

Internal IT teams in Los Angeles carry obligations most national playbooks gloss over. Your team keeps ownership; we bring the specialists and the evidence.

Privacy Law
California’s consumer privacy rules (CCPA as amended by CPRA) and the state breach-notification statute shape where data lives and what happens after an incident.
Medical Information
Clinics and medical groups answer to HIPAA and California’s own medical-confidentiality law. We support the risk analysis and the safeguards.
Defense Supply Chain
South Bay and Valley manufacturers selling into aerospace and defense face CMMC. We run gap assessments and remediation.
Insurance & Client Audits
Carriers and enterprise clients now ask detailed security questions. We help your team answer with configuration evidence.

IT Leaders Ask

Co-Managed IT in Los Angeles: Straight Answers

The questions internal IT leads ask before they bring us in.

Will co-managed IT replace our IT person?
No. Your IT lead keeps ownership of strategy, vendors and the relationship with your staff. We take the work they can’t get to. If you later decide you want us to run everything, that’s a different engagement, our fully managed IT services, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it makes sense.
Does our internal team keep admin rights?
Yes. Your team keeps its own administrator accounts. We work through named accounts of our own, every change is logged against a ticket, and access is agreed in writing at the start.
Is there a minimum company size?
We work with organizations of 20 users and up. Below that there’s rarely an internal IT person to co-manage with.
How fast do you respond?
Our average first response is about 8 minutes. That’s an average, not a contractual guarantee. When something can’t be fixed remotely, we commit to an engineer onsite within one hour anywhere in Los Angeles and Orange County.
What hours does your help desk cover?
Around the clock. Live engineers staff the desk 24/7, every day of the year. Most co-managed clients use us to cover exactly the hours their own team doesn’t.
Co-managed or fully managed: how do we decide?
If you have capable IT staff you want to keep in charge, co-managed usually fits. If nobody in-house owns IT, fully managed does. Our co-managed vs fully managed comparison walks through the scenarios.
