FIT's core competency is in the management and security of the technology for your business. Our Proactive IT Management (PIM) is a customized suite of products and services designed for the benefit of employee productivity and security.
Every company is different and so plans and pricing are customized to exactly fit. Whether you have an in-house IT staff or no one on staff with any IT experience, FIT can devise a model that is right for you! Some companies don't need all of our services, but just a few. For this reason, FIT doesn’t force the Proactive IT Management model, but allows for customization. Maybe you just need a good patch management team or help with the setup and management of Microsoft 365. We're happy to exactly fill these kinds of technology gaps.
Under PIM, there is no stress in calling our support desk. The support is included in the monthly pricing and our technicians are friendly and eager to make your employee's day better.
Though some items in the list below are optional, most clients receive the following services within PIM. This list is ever growing. So, if you need something that is not listed, we might already be planning on it.

There are a few reasons why you might want FIT to assess your environment for best practices:
- Seeking out areas of improvement for a more efficient environment
- Affirmation about the existing setup
- Looking to move from your current MSP and would like some guidance for improvements
- It's a no-commitment start with Forward In Technology to see if the relationship between our
companies is a good fit.
The following will be included in the assessment report:
- Internal vulnerability scan including remediation recommendations
- Network map including hardware used for network equipment, VLANs, and more
- Firewall overview (rules, policies, security settings)
- Server overview
- Backup and DR configuration and current status
- Endpoint protection software including antivirus and patch management solutions
