Backup and disaster recovery
in Birmingham.
Plan for the restore, not just the backup job.
Service scope
What we can plan with you
Match backup coverage to the systems and information you need to recover. Discuss retention, restore testing and the order in which business services need to return.
Restore planning
Establish the order in which services need to return and what each one depends on. Discuss tolerable downtime and data loss before choosing a recovery approach.
Testing and ownership
Define restore tests, reporting and responsibility for failed jobs. Include access to recovery credentials and the process for requesting or authorising a restore.
Choosing the right approach
Start with the requirement.
Then choose the setup.
File recovery and whole-service recovery are different requirements. A backup may recover deleted information without immediately restoring a working application, identity system or phone service. Scope each recovery scenario separately.

Fit the service to the way your team works.
For a business operating from Birmingham and working across the West Midlands, the useful starting point is a site and user inventory. Office employees, visiting staff and field teams can need different devices and connectivity while still sharing one support process.
Your backup & recovery brief should account for how people work, the systems they depend on and any changes you are planning. The points below help connect those requirements to the wider environment.
Office and field teams
Separate the needs of desk-based users from mobile employees. Record who needs a business number, access to shared mail and secure access to internal applications.
Service planning: Identify the systems and data that must be protected.
Connected premises
For each premises, collect its postcode, current circuit details and contract dates. Network design should account for guest Wi-Fi, business devices and any equipment that cannot be interrupted during working hours.
Before making changes: Agree recovery objectives and retention periods.
