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.

Rapid developments in technology mean continually having to train and add to permanent staff. 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.

IBM Power & IBM i

IBM Power & IBM i Services and Support

SIGAM provides specialist IBM Power and IBM i skills for businesses requiring additional support, development expertise or technical capacity. Our services range from ongoing system support and operations through to development, upgrades, migrations and project resource.

Whether you are in warehousing and distribution, finance, insurance or manufacturing, if you run IBM i (AS/400 / iSeries) we can support you — including legacy systems and operating system versions where IBM support may no longer be available.

01

24×7 IBM i Operations & Support

System monitoring 24 × 7 × 365, incident management, job scheduling and all levels of support.

02

Disaster Recovery & High Availability (DR/HA)

DR testing, planning and management, plus HA replication set-up, monitoring, reporting and role swapping.

03

RPG & COBOL Development and Support

Application support and development in CL, RPG and COBOL, alongside third-party applications such as ROBOT, BRMS and JDE.

04

IBM i Upgrades, Migrations & Modernisation

OS upgrades, PTF patching, system implementation and data-centre migration and consolidation projects.

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.
