IT projects and professional services. Clear start. Clear finish. Run by specialists.
What we do
Infrastructure and IT projects, from first design to final handoff.
InnerCore plans, builds and hands over the systems your business runs on. Every project is designed security-first and delivered to a written scope your leadership approves.
Strategic consulting and roadmaps
Turn competing priorities into a phased roadmap your leadership can approve, fund and track. We review where your infrastructure, cloud and security stand today, then set out the sequence that gets you where you need to be.
- Current-state review of servers, storage, network and cloud
- Phased roadmap tied to business priorities
- Options laid out plainly so leadership can decide
Example project: A roadmap to retire ageing on-premises servers and move key workloads to the cloud in planned stages.
Talk through your roadmap
Implementation and deployment
New platforms, infrastructure and migrations put in place to a written plan, with cutover managed around the way your business runs.
- Traditional, converged and hyperconverged server builds
- Hypervisor and virtualization design and build
- Greenfield cloud builds and on-premises to cloud migrations
Example project: A new hyperconverged cluster built, tested and brought into service alongside the existing estate, then cut over in an agreed change window.
Plan an implementation
System integration
Connect the systems your teams depend on so data moves where it should and work stops falling between platforms.
- Identity and sign-in joined across on-premises and cloud
- Storage, backup and recovery connected to the systems they protect
- Line-of-business systems linked to your cloud platforms
Example project: On-premises directory and cloud identity joined so people sign in once and access follows their role.
Discuss an integration
Tailored setup
Configure Microsoft 365, cloud platforms, networks and security settings around your policies and risk, not around defaults, so the security work closes the gaps it was meant to close.
- Network threat prevention set up and tuned to your environment
- Storage and virtualization configured to your policies
- Virtual desktops delivered and configured by InnerCore
Example project: Virtual desktops rolled out for a remote workforce, with access controls set to company policy.
Scope a tailored setup
Training and adoption
Bring your people and your IT team up to speed on what changed, so the investment shows up in how work actually gets done.
- Admin training for your IT team on the new platform
- End-user sessions and short how-to guides
- Recorded walkthroughs your team can revisit
Example project: Admin training on a new virtualization platform, recorded and filed with the as-built documentation.
Plan training for your team
Project management
One accountable project lead who runs the plan, the owners and the status reporting, so your leaders stay informed without chasing anyone.
- A single point of contact from scope to handoff
- Regular status updates with decisions and risks called out
- Change control on anything outside the agreed scope
Example project: A multi-stage cloud migration run to one plan, with status reporting to the leadership team at each stage.

What we build
The infrastructure your business runs on, designed and built right.
From the server room to the cloud, InnerCore covers the full infrastructure stack. We architect it, engineer it, help you source it, set it up, configure it, and hand it over documented, or keep managing it for you.
Servers
Traditional, converged and hyperconverged platforms, sized to your workloads and built for resilience.
Virtualization
On-premises hypervisor design and build, with clustering, capacity planning and recovery in mind.
Storage
Primary and backup storage designed for performance, protection and room to grow.
Cloud infrastructure
Cloud design and builds, greenfield or migrated from on-premises, with security set from day one.
Virtual desktops
Desktops delivered by InnerCore, so your people work securely from anywhere.
Network and protection
Network design with threat prevention built in, so every change strengthens your posture.
Where we deliver
Your site, your cloud, or both.
Anything InnerCore manages on its own platforms, we can also deliver as project work in your environment. That includes your data centre or server room, your cloud tenancy, a hybrid of both, or an environment another provider runs for you. You keep ownership; we bring the design, build and handoff.
Your site
Builds and upgrades on your own hardware, planned around your operations.
Your cloud
Design, build and migration inside your own cloud account, under your control.
Hybrid
On-premises and cloud joined into one design, with identity, storage and recovery working across both.
Working with another provider? We can deliver alongside them to an agreed scope.
How a project runs
One lifecycle, from first design to final handoff.
Every stage has an owner, a deliverable and your sign-off before the next begins.
Discover
We agree the goals, constraints and what success looks like with your stakeholders.
Architect
We design the target state and document it before anything is bought or built.
Engineer
We turn the design into detailed build specifications and a phased plan.
Procure
We help you source the right hardware, licensing and services for the design.
Set up
We stage and prepare the platform, ready for build.
Implement
Our specialists build stage by stage and test each stage before cutover.
Configure
We tune settings to your policies, security posture and the way your teams work.
Train
Your IT team and your people learn what changed and how to run it.
Hand off
We walk your team through the finished work, hand over the documentation and confirm who owns what next.
After handoff, run it yourself or keep it running with us under a managed agreement. Your choice.
What you get
Real documents, not promises.
Every project ends with the records your team needs to run, support and change what we built.

Three ways to engage.
Already a managed customer
Project work runs as its own engagement, with its own plan and lead, so your monthly service keeps its full attention.
Just need the project
No managed agreement needed. We scope it, run it to a written plan and hand it over to your team.
Need an expert for a while
Book specialist time in blocks of hours when you need senior judgment without a full project.
Why InnerCore.
Scoped in writing.
Every project starts with a written statement of work, so scope and responsibilities are clear before work begins.
Security in every change.
Each project is designed security-first, so the work closes gaps rather than opening new ones.
Your environment, your choice.
We deliver on our platforms or yours, and after handoff you decide who runs it.
Questions buyers ask
Exactly what the written statement of work says: what is included, what is excluded and what done looks like. You approve it before work begins.
Yes. We deliver in your site, your cloud or a hybrid of both, and can work alongside another provider to an agreed scope.
Yes. We advise on what the design needs and help you source it, so what arrives matches the plan.
It depends on scope, size and your change windows. We set out the phases and milestones in the project plan so you can see the full timeline before work starts.
Where your operations need it, cutover and disruptive work can be planned for agreed change windows outside normal hours. We set these with you in the cutover plan.
Yes. One project lead owns the plan, coordinates our specialists and keeps your stakeholders updated from scope to handoff.
We stop, explain what we found and what it means, and re-scope with you. Nothing outside the agreed scope goes ahead without your approval.
Documentation, diagrams, runbooks, training recordings and an admin handover, so your team can run what we built.
Tell us about the project. We'll scope it with you.
Share what needs to change and what is at stake. We will turn it into a clear, written scope before any work begins.
