On-Demand Ad Hoc IT Support

Have you ever needed IT support in some shape or form, without the substantial cost? Sometimes, all you need is a bit of help, exactly when it’s needed.

What if you could access a variety of Ad Hoc IT support services for a one-time payment, with no ongoing obligations?

We offer ad hoc IT support via our Bluescope Direct Support (BDS) packages. BDS is essentially a prepaid block of hours dedicated to IT support, giving you the support you need for when you actually need it. With each block of hours purchased, you can rest easy knowing that IT support is just a click or call away.

Our BDS packages are valid for 1 year from the date of purchase, giving you the freedom to use your hours however and whenever you choose.
