J3 Systems Group helps small businesses and nonprofits manage Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, security and access, documentation, technology operations, assessments, implementations, and migrations.

Clear scope before paid work begins

Scope, pricing, and approval stay defined.

After the Zoom meeting and scope review, J3 prepares an itemized quote or proposal showing the proposed work, deliverables, inclusions, exclusions, and custom-scoped pricing.

No work begins until the applicable scope and service terms are approved.

Ongoing remote technology operations

Managed Technology Operations

Annual Managed Technology Operations agreements are custom scoped to the organization. Before an agreement is prepared, J3 Systems Group reviews the users, devices, accounts, applications, infrastructure, locations, vendors, security controls, and anticipated support requirements that affect the proposed scope.

Foundational

Core technology administration

Custom Scoped

Foundational administration, operational records, security-setting review, vendor and inventory registers, technology guidance, and administrative onboarding and offboarding as expressly included in the agreement.

Expanded

Operations and governance

Custom Scoped

May include expanded documentation, operational reviews and reporting, vendor and subscription coordination, risk and remediation tracking, technology planning, and other agreed responsibilities.

Higher-Touch

Strategic technology operations

Custom Scoped

May include leadership reporting, strategic roadmaps, lifecycle and budget planning, change coordination, governance review, and other higher-touch responsibilities expressly identified in the agreement.

Scope rule: only services expressly identified as included are included. Services, systems, users, devices, locations, applications, projects, or responsibilities not expressly identified as included are outside the scope of the agreement unless added through a written amendment or separately approved scope of work.

Defined one-time work

Custom-scoped one-time services

One-time services do not use universal starting prices. After the initial Zoom meeting and scope review, J3 Systems Group prepares an itemized quote based on the work required.

Assessment

Initial assessment

Custom Scoped

Remote authorized collection, manual analysis, prioritized findings, a written report, recommendations, and defined proposed deliverables when an assessment is appropriate for the request.

Documentation

Documentation projects

Additional work

Work outside the approved scope

Separate Approval Required

Additional work is not automatically included. If requested work falls outside the approved scope, J3 Systems Group will review it and may provide a separate quote, scope of work, or written amendment before proceeding.

How Working With J3 Works

From your technology need to an approved scope

J3 first learns what you are trying to accomplish, then defines the proposed work before paid services begin.

1

Tell J3 what you need

Describe the technology issue, project, service need, or operational challenge you want help with.

2

Review the situation by Zoom

We discuss your environment, goals, priorities, and the work that may be required. No estimated project price is provided during the meeting.

3

Review and approve the proposed scope

J3 prepares an itemized quote or proposal identifying the work, deliverables, inclusions, exclusions, and custom-scoped pricing before the applicable agreement and payment steps.

When an assessment is the right first step

Some environments need a structured review before the final work can be defined.

Initial assessments are separately scoped and paid in full before assessment work begins. After required payment is received, work is scheduled to begin the next business day unless the signed service agreement states otherwise.

Clear service boundaries

What is not included

Clear exclusions protect both sides from assuming that an unrelated service or outside expense is included.

Services J3 does not provide

  • Routine end-user help desk or routine end-user troubleshooting
  • Staff technology or device setup assistance
  • Onsite services
  • Structured cabling, electrical work, construction, or physical mounting
  • Physical server installation requiring a licensed specialty contractor
  • Unlimited requests, meetings, reporting, or consulting

Services requiring a separate agreement

  • Continuous security monitoring or managed detection and response
  • Penetration testing, incident response, emergency, or after-hours availability
  • Major remediation, tenant-wide changes, migrations, implementations, or extensive cleanup
  • Custom development, training, compliance certification, or guaranteed discovery

Third-party costs are separate unless included in writing

Microsoft and Google licenses, hardware, software subscriptions, client-specific inventory or management tools, migration tools, vendor fees, contractors, specialty contractors, taxes, shipping, travel, and approved external expenses are not included in J3 labor pricing. Client-direct purchasing is preferred. If J3 purchases an approved item, advance funding may be required.

Service and pricing questions

What clients usually want clarified

How is pricing determined?

Pricing is custom scoped after the initial Zoom meeting and review of the work required. J3 Systems Group then prepares an itemized quote or proposal for review before an agreement is signed or paid work begins.

Will I receive a price during the meeting?

No estimated project price is provided during the initial Zoom meeting. The Zoom meeting is used to understand the organization, environment, needs, goals, risks, and proposed scope before pricing is prepared.

Does an annual agreement include unlimited work?

No. Only services and responsibilities expressly identified as included are included. Additional systems, users, devices, locations, applications, projects, or responsibilities may require a written amendment, revised service schedule, or separately approved scope of work.

Can the scope change after an agreement is signed?

Yes. Material changes to users, systems, devices, locations, applications, vendors, workload, reporting, risk, or operational complexity may require a scope review and written adjustment to the agreement.

Are response times guaranteed?

Authorized requests are normally acknowledged within two business days during business hours unless a signed service agreement states otherwise. Acknowledgment is not resolution, an immediate-response promise, emergency coverage, or a service-level agreement.

When does paid work begin?

Paid work begins according to the signed service agreement after the required approvals and payment conditions are satisfied. Initial assessments are paid in full before work begins.

Tell Me What You Need Help With

You do not need to know which service fits before reaching out. Describe the technology issue, project, or operational need you are dealing with. If a Zoom meeting is the right next step, J3 will use it to understand your environment before scope and pricing are prepared.
