Why Daventry

The local picture, written by people who actually live here.

Daventry punches above its weight economically. DIRFT (Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal) moves freight for Volkswagen, Cummins, Tesco, Sainsbury's and a long list of others, and the surrounding industrial estates host a big tail of distribution and manufacturing SMBs feeding into that ecosystem. The town itself has grown around it, and the wider NN11 postcode covers a mix of business parks, family-owned firms and rural-economy work.

We're 15 to 20 minutes from Daventry on the A45 from Coventry, which makes it one of the easiest runs in our patch. Same-day on-site is genuinely cheap to deliver here because the drive is short. For routine planned work we often combine Daventry visits with Northampton or Rugby trips the same day.

The kit we deploy is what the larger UK MSPs run: SentinelOne and Huntress for security, Microsoft 365 with Intune and Entra ID, Cisco Meraki or TP-Link Omada for networking. Distribution and logistics clients tend to want clean Microsoft 365 for office staff, scanner-fleet management for the warehouse, and segmented networks between the two. We handle all of that.

FAQ

Common questions from Daventry businesses.

How quickly can you be on-site in Daventry?

For a real P1 inside business hours, typically 30 to 45 minutes door-to-door from Coventry. The A45 is the straight run, around 15 to 20 minutes driving. Most issues are resolved remotely first time, but when we do need to be on-site Daventry is one of the easiest runs in our patch.

Can you support distribution businesses at or around DIRFT?

Yes. Multi-site logistics IT is a regular pattern for us: Microsoft 365 for office staff, scanner fleets and label printers for the warehouse, SD-WAN or VPN connecting the sites, segmented networks to keep operational tech isolated. We work with several distribution firms in the Daventry / Lutterworth / Rugby triangle.

Are you a Microsoft Partner?

Yes. Microsoft 365 with Intune and Entra ID is the standard setup. Comfortable taking over existing tenants, migrating from on-premise Exchange or Google Workspace, and tightening up the security side with Cyber Essentials Plus.

Do you handle cyber insurance pre-qualification?

Yes. Our standard build meets or beats most insurance questionnaires (MFA everywhere, EDR not just AV, off-site backups, an incident response plan). We'll write the technical responses your broker needs when the form arrives.
