Thinking about moving? Start with what it would actually involve.
Send over a rough list of what you are running now. Servers, where the email lives, the line-of-business software, roughly how many people. I will come back with what the move looks like, what it would take, and how long it needs. No charge for that conversation and no obligation after it.
Independent, Bromborough-based, Microsoft Partner. You deal with Eric, and the person who scopes the move is the person who runs it, so nothing gets lost between a salesperson and a delivery team.

Why Lancashire Businesses Trust Regional Cloud Providers
Lancashire has a record 97,537 registered companies, with Preston's city centre alone hosting over 840 enterprises in a single postcode area. The county's diverse economy, from Burnley's manufacturing base to Lancaster's university quarter and the defence technology operations at BAE Systems Samlesbury, generates broad demand for cloud services. The incoming National Cyber Force headquarters at Samlesbury will add thousands of technology-aware professionals who expect modern cloud infrastructure.
The Boost Lancashire Business Growth Hub has supported over 14,000 businesses since 2013, many of them through digital adoption programmes. Cloud migration, from on-premise servers to Microsoft 365 and Azure, is increasingly the standard path for Lancashire SMBs looking to reduce costs and improve resilience. But migration without proper security configuration creates risk, particularly for firms in regulated sectors.
Preston is approximately 50 minutes from our Liverpool City Region base via the M6. We provide cloud services across Lancashire that combine secure migration, ongoing management and the local support that comes from operating in the same region as the businesses we serve.

Cloud Services FAQ
How long does a cloud migration take?
It depends on complexity. A straightforward M365 migration for a small business can be done in days. Larger migrations involving Azure infrastructure typically take 4-12 weeks. We plan carefully to minimise disruption to your business.
Will our data be stored in the UK?
Yes. We configure Azure to use UK data centres (UK South and UK West regions). For M365, your data is stored in Microsoft's UK facilities. This is important for data protection compliance.
What happens to our existing data during migration?
Your data is preserved throughout the migration process. We take full backups before starting, migrate in phases, and verify everything before completing the cutover. No data loss, no corruption.
Do you provide training for our staff?
Yes. User adoption is key to getting value from cloud services. We provide training sessions, documentation, and ongoing support to help your team get comfortable with the new systems.
What if something goes wrong after migration?
That's what support is for. Our Lancashire team provides ongoing support for all cloud services we deploy. Issues are logged, prioritised and worked through properly, not left to sit.
Can you help optimise our cloud costs?
Absolutely. Cloud cost optimisation is a core part of our service. We right-size resources, identify reserved instance opportunities, and eliminate waste. Many businesses see 20-30% savings after a cloud cost review.
