Many businesses need help from external IT management services. Outsourcing IT operations entirely doesn’t make sense for their business because they can’t afford the cost of hiring an internal team. That’s why the co-management model works so well. When you establish a collaborative relationship between your company and an outside service provider, you share responsibility for managing the technology infrastructure. You both work together to ensure that everything runs smoothly and efficiently.

• Work with a third party to provide some of the necessary services for your business.
• Identify which services and resources you require to achieve organizational or business goals.
