01Overview
Managed IT built for Rochester businesses
Rochester is a medical city: the clinics, labs and suppliers that work around Mayo Clinic, the biotech and software firms in Discovery Square, the hotels and transport companies that look after patients from all over the world, and the manufacturers and food processors of southeast Minnesota. Most of them handle health data or sell to someone who does, and few have a person whose whole job is IT. We run the whole thing remotely, with a US-based specialist answering in about a minute, and send an engineer down US-52 from our Minneapolis office when a job needs hands.
The Rochester market
A downtown built around medicine, business parks to the northwest and south, and a workforce that commutes from Byron, Stewartville and Kasson. The Destination Medical Center plan keeps adding offices, clinics and hotels that all need a network that works on day one.
Health data, even if you are not a clinic
Suppliers, billing firms, labs and software companies that touch patient information sign business associate agreements and answer security questionnaires. We put the HIPAA safeguards in place, document them and help you answer without guessing.
Support that does not depend on one person
Your people call one number and a live specialist picks up, not a queue. Most issues are fixed remotely on the same call. When equipment needs hands, an engineer drives down from Minneapolis, about 90 miles up US-52.
Winter storms and the restore nobody tested
Blizzards and ice close roads and offices here every winter. We back up on site and to the cloud, test restores and plan so a closed office does not mean a closed business.

03Challenges
IT challenges we solve for Rochester businesses
The things that bring a Rochester company to us, and what we do about each one.
HIPAA and the Minnesota Health Records Act
How we handle itCompliance as a ServiceMinnesota adds its own consent rules on top of HIPAA. We lock down patient data, control who can open what, and keep the documentation an auditor or a hospital partner will ask for.
Phishing, ransomware and the insurance renewal
How we handle itCybersecurity ProtectionCyber insurers now ask for MFA, endpoint detection and tested backups before they quote. We put the controls in and document them.
New locations that have to work on day one
How we handle itNetwork InfrastructureA new clinic, office or hotel needs cabling, Wi-Fi, firewalls and phones ready before the doors open. We design it, schedule the install and manage it afterwards.
Backups nobody has ever restored
How we handle itBackup and Disaster RecoveryA backup that has not been tested is a hope, not a plan. We back up on site and to the cloud, monitor every job nightly and run restore tests so you know the hours you would lose.
One overloaded IT person, or none
How we handle itManaged IT ServicesThe office manager is the help desk and the server lives in a closet. We give you a full team for less than one hire, and keep your current IT person if you have one.
Hybrid teams on half-finished Microsoft 365
How we handle itCloud and Remote WorkLicences are in place but permissions, sharing and backups never got finished. We clean it up so the office, the clinic and the home office work from one secure copy of everything.

Industry-focused IT support for Rochester organizations
The sectors that dominate southeast Minnesota, and what each one needs from its IT.
Healthcare and medical practices

Biotech, labs and health software
Start-ups and research firms around Discovery Square hold study data, intellectual property and customer contracts that demand proof of security. We run the IT so the team can run the science, and we document the controls partners ask about. Learn more
Hospitality and patient services
Hotels, extended-stay properties, shuttles and concierge services depend on booking systems, guest Wi-Fi and card payments around the clock. We keep them up, separate guest traffic from business systems and handle the PCI basics. Learn more

07Security and compliance
Security built in, with the paperwork to prove it
Multi-factor authentication, endpoint detection and response, email filtering, patched systems, tested backups and staff training are part of every managed plan, not an upsell. We document each control so an insurer, an auditor or a client questionnaire gets evidence, not promises.
