Franchise Tech Stack

One tech stack,
every location.

When each franchise location chooses its own software and hardware, support becomes impossible and costs multiply. We design a standardised tech stack for your network: one hardware standard, one software set, and one support model.

What's included

Everything you need, none of the upsell.

Real deliverables, with the boundaries written down. So you know what you're paying for and what counts as extra.

Stack Design

Hardware and software defined once.

Network equipment, devices, POS, Microsoft 365 configuration, and backup all specified in a standard that applies to every location.

Licensing

Volume, not per-location negotiating.

Software licensing negotiated at the network level. Cheaper per seat, consistent entitlements, and one renewal date to manage.

Vendor Management

We negotiate and manage.

Telco, hardware, software, and cloud vendors managed from one point. You don't have fifty different vendor conversations happening across the network.

Refresh Cycle

Planned hardware replacement.

Device and network hardware refresh cycle defined at the network level. No location running five-year-old hardware while the next one has new gear.

How it works

The order we work in.

A clear sequence so you can budget time, money, and risk against the work.

Step 01

Current State.

Technology used across existing locations inventoried. Deviations from any existing standard documented.

Step 02

Design.

Standard tech stack defined: hardware, software, configuration, and supported variations.

Step 03

Negotiate.

Volume licensing and hardware supply agreements established at the network level.

Step 04

Manage.

Ongoing vendor management, license reconciliation, and refresh planning as part of the managed service.
