Multi-location and multi-country business

One IT standard across every branch and border

Restaurant groups, retail chains and companies with offices in several countries often end up with a different supplier, setup and problem at each site. We bring them onto one standard with one help desk and central visibility, working remotely and coordinating local help where it is needed.

Common operational problems

Every site is different

Different routers, devices, accounts and suppliers at each location make every fault a new investigation.

No central view

Head office cannot see which sites are healthy, patched or backed up.

Time-zone gaps

Sites open when the support provider is asleep.

Local fixes without records

Local technicians fix things without documentation, and the knowledge leaves with them.

Common systems and integration points

  • Point-of-sale and branch systems
  • Site networks, Wi-Fi and internet links
  • Central reporting and stock systems
  • Email and collaboration suite
  • CCTV and building systems (coordination only)
  • Local hardware suppliers and ISPs

Common risks we look for

  • Default passwords on branch routers and Wi-Fi.
  • Point-of-sale terminals on the same network as guest Wi-Fi.
  • Local admin accounts shared across sites.
  • Branch data that never reaches central backups.
  • No list of which local supplier to call at each site.

Recommended service bundle

A phased implementation roadmap

  1. Phase 1 — Site inventory

    Every location’s devices, links, suppliers and contacts, in one register.

  2. Phase 2 — Standard

    A baseline configuration for networks, devices and accounts, applied site by site.

  3. Phase 3 — Central visibility

    Monitoring and patch reporting for all sites, plus a monthly report per location.

  4. Phase 4 — Local coordination

    Named local partners or staff for hands-on tasks, guided remotely and documented.

Illustrative scenario: not a client result

What this can look like

A group with six outlets in two countries has a different internet provider, router and point-of-sale setup at each site, and no record of who supports what.

Build a site register, standardise network and device configuration one site at a time, route all support through one help desk on an Extended 16×5 window, and give each site a local contact for hands-on tasks.

Agree the measures in advance: tickets per site, repeat faults, patch compliance and time to restore service at a site.
