JK Technologies primary support plan is our Priority Service Plan JK Technologies uses a retainer based model that focuses our efforts on our existing customers. The Priority Service Plan is our method to control our growth to preserve our availability for our customer's company’s IT needs, instead of looking for new customers and performing new installs. JK Technologies currently has a waiting list for new customers. To be most responsive to our customers, we only sell between 20-25 hours of billable labor per week per IT engineer. The remaining weekly hours are lost to research, travel and documentation. In focusing completely on our existing customer base, JK Technologies ensures our responsive availability for our customer's needs--especially during emergencies. How does it work? Priority Service Plan customers receive a monthly bill, paid in advance for their IT support, which reserves hours of consulting services for the month. If they exceed their reserved time, they receive an itemized bill at the beginning of the next month for the overage. We inform the customer as they approach the end of their reserved time, so that expenses can be prioritized and work can be approved or postponed to the next month. There are many advantages. Top priority for calls Time is reserved for a month. Reduced pricing on other services Remote support technologies at no additional charge. Free 10 minute remote sessions One-half hour billing increments. No surcharge for after hours work. Equipment and software are billed separately. Other services (email, hosting, etc.) are billed separately. Discounted rates for larger customers.
Consider "Block Time" for less critical support. We also offer Block Time, for those customers who do not want a monthly bill and whose business can afford less responsive IT support. It's very simple: Pay for 4 hour blocks (minimum) in advance. We'll track our support services and invoice when the prepaid time has been used. Remote support technologies are available at a separate charge. ·One-half hour billing increments. ·Equipment and software are billed separately. ·Other services (email, hosting, etc.) are billed separately. ·Block Time never expires.
