TechAssist has supported hundreds of Australian SMEs across construction, manufacturing, logistics, law firms, mining, and professional services. An outsourced service desk that integrates with your existing IT team — not one that replaces them.
Larger Australian businesses with an internal IT function often do not need a full MSP — they need a service desk to absorb tier 1 volume so internal engineers can focus on tier 2 and 3. Our service desk plugs into your existing tooling, follows your processes, and lets your team scale without hiring.
How Our Service Desk Works
Three integration models. Australian engineers. Your tooling, your processes.
01
Integrate
We integrate with your existing ITSM tool — ServiceNow, Halo, Jira, ConnectWise, Zendesk. Your processes, your SLAs, your categorisation. We do not force a tooling change.
02
Absorb Tier 1
Our engineers absorb tier 1 volume — password resets, software install, basic troubleshooting, M365 user changes, peripheral support. Internal team focuses on tier 2 and 3.
03
Escalate Cleanly
Tickets that need internal escalation go to the right queue with full context. No “we cannot find your engineer” handoffs.
What is Included
Eight capabilities of our outsourced or co-managed service desk.
Outsourced or Co-Managed
We run two service desk models. Fully outsourced — we are your service desk. Or co-managed — we absorb tier 1 and integrate with your internal tier 2 and 3 team. Both models scale up and down on user count without renegotiation.
The co-managed model is the more common configuration for organisations of 100-500 staff who already have an internal IT function. The economics rarely favour replacing internal staff — they favour augmenting them.
Built for the Tooling You Already Run
We do not require you to move to our tooling. We integrate with whatever ITSM platform you already run. We have engineers experienced in ServiceNow, Halo, Jira Service Management, ConnectWise, Zendesk, Freshservice, and others. Where your tooling has gaps, we fill them; where it works, we use it.
