[SV-03] managed operations

We run the software we build.

When you want the outcome without carrying the operational burden, we take ownership. SLA-backed uptime, on-call engineering, and workflow owners embedded inside Askuala Labs mean the system never becomes your weekend problem.

[outcomes]

What you actually get.

[01]

SLA-backed uptime

Contractual availability and response targets. No ambiguity about who owns the pager.

[02]

Workflow ownership

A dedicated workflow owner inside Askuala Labs — not just an engineering ticket queue.

[03]

Capacity on demand

Seasonal spikes, new regulations, or an audit? We scale coverage and ship fixes.

[04]

Transparent reporting

Monthly ops reports that show what moved, what broke, and what we fixed.

[how it works]

A disciplined sequence, not a surprise.

  1. [01]

    Baseline runbooks

    We document every operational routine so coverage is deterministic.

  2. [02]

    On-call engineering

    Primary and secondary rotations with defined response times by severity.

  3. [03]

    Continuous improvement

    Each ticket is also a signal — recurring issues drive engineering backlog, not just support hours.

  4. [04]

    Reporting cadence

    Weekly operational standup, monthly executive summary, quarterly review of outcomes.

[when this is right]

  • You have a working system but no internal team to run it 24×7.
  • You've outgrown ad-hoc support but a full in-house ops team is premature.
  • The system is business-critical and downtime is expensive.

[when it is not]

  • You already have a mature internal ops practice — you probably want staff augmentation instead.

[faq]

Questions buyers actually ask.

Do you only operate systems you built?
Mostly. We take over third-party systems selectively — only when we can commit to the SLA honestly, which usually requires a scoped audit first.
What SLAs do you offer?
Tiered: 99.9% availability with 1-hour P1 response is the common baseline; higher tiers available for mission-critical workloads.
How are you priced?
Monthly retainer scoped to coverage tier and system complexity. No per-ticket pricing — it misaligns incentives.
