Most incidents (Microsoft 365, security, networking, backups) are handled remotely in the moment, which fits the constraints of workshops and engineering offices where day-to-day technical availability matters more than the weekly visit of a local provider. On-site visits are scheduled for rollouts and hardware audits.
