Who we are
The skills you need, when you need them
SIGAM combines UK-based management and accountability with access to experienced technical resources, providing flexible IT capability that can scale with your requirements.
As technology develops, businesses need to keep training their staff and recruiting people with new skills. SIGAM gives corporate IT departments and growing businesses another option: specialist skills, development resource and ongoing support, without permanently employing every technical skill you require.
01
UK management, direct accountability
Every engagement is overseen by our UK management team, so you deal with people who understand your business, your time zone and your requirements.
02
Pay for the skills you use
Bring in specialist expertise for a project, a period of change or ongoing support, without the cost of recruiting, training and retaining every specialist yourself.
03
Modern and legacy technology
From IBM i and established ERP platforms to Microsoft 365, cloud infrastructure and modern development, our resources cover the systems businesses actually run.
What we do
Services built around your requirements
SIGAM can supply skilled resource on a one-off or rolling contract basis across six core areas — from specialist IBM i expertise to everyday infrastructure support.
Specialist service

How we work
Flexible engagement, on your terms
Talk to SIGAM about the skills or support you need, whether it's for a specific project, additional capacity or ongoing technical support.
Project
A specific project
Specialist skills for a defined piece of work — from an ERP integration or server migration to a new application — with the scope and budget agreed up front.
Capacity
Additional capacity
Cover for holidays, parental leave, sickness or recruitment gaps, so important work keeps moving while your team is stretched.
Support
Ongoing technical support
Proactive monitoring, maintenance and support on a rolling basis, including out-of-hours service desk cover with SLAs that meet your needs.
Our consultation can be by phone or a visit to your premises. Pricing is straightforward and structured around your requirements, with flexible engagement that can adapt as your needs change.
Cybersecurity & ESET
Protect your users, devices, data and business systems
SIGAM supplies ESET business cybersecurity solutions, helping organisations select, license and implement security appropriate to their requirements.
Approaching a security renewal? Tell us roughly how many endpoints or seats you need to protect and when your current agreement renews, and we can provide an ESET quotation for comparison.
ESET licensing
Business licensing matched to the size and requirements of your organisation.
Product selection
Help identifying the right ESET solution, rather than assuming one package fits every organisation.
Implementation
Practical help with implementation and set-up, with the scope agreed before work begins.
Renewals
Plan ahead and review whether your requirements have changed before committing to another term.
