The Sentry Way is Different

Our Unique Approach

We help companies solve business challenges through technology.

We believe technology isn't just a cost center, but essential to every department of every business.  It's so much bigger than IT.  That's why we're not your average Managed Services Provider- we're different.  We look at your entire company through our Technology Maturity Model and create a strategic roadmap to launch your company into innovation.

Technology isn't just a tool—it's the differentiator between thriving and merely surviving.

Yet many executives find themselves trapped in a cycle of reactive technology management, constantly putting out fires instead of leveraging tech for growth. The Technology Maturity Model (TMM) changes this paradigm completely. As your trusted technology guide, Sentry has developed this comprehensive framework to transform how your business approaches technology—moving from basic operational support to true innovation.

The TMM isn't about implementing technology for technology's sake; it's about strategically advancing your business through four critical phases: Operate, Secure, Integrate, and Innovate. Each phase builds upon the previous, creating a solid foundation for growth while eliminating the frustrations of downtime, security vulnerabilities, and inefficient processes that have been holding your business back. Unlike traditional IT approaches that focus solely on maintaining the status quo, the TMM aligns technology directly with your business objectives, turning IT from a cost center into a powerful driver of productivity, profit, and peace of mind.

We help companies solve business challenges with our technology maturity model.

Technology Maturity Model

Operate

Operational IT is the foundation of your business. It’s the first stop on your way to innovation because it doesn’t matter how advanced you want your business to be, a shaky foundation will never support the launch.
 
Troubleshooting, Printing, Help Desk, Network & Connectivity, Device Management, Device Purchasing, Line of Business Apps and Software, Backup & Recovery, Data Storage

Secure

Cyber Security and Compliance are the next stop to launching innovation. Here, you make sure your business is safe from cyber attacks and is fully compliant depending on your industry.

Benchmark to Cyber Security Standards (CIS, NIST, etc.), Compliance Standards (HIPPA, PCI, etc.), Threat Analysis (Mitre Att&ck Framework), Insurance Compliancy & Risk Management, Endpoint Security, Identity Governance Management, Employee Training, Enterprise Password Hygiene

Integrate

Organizational Integration is the critical middle phase of your technology journey—where operational excellence meets strategic alignment. At this stage, your business transforms technology into a true strategic asset. With secure operations now in place, we shift focus to how technology can amplify your specific business goals and processes across your entire organization.

4 Unique Phases

Where do we start?

Through the TMM we understand each phase of your business technology and build a strategy accordingly.  Some businesses want to do all of it, some want to just do Phase 1 & 2.  Whatever you're looking for, the team at Sentry builds a unique strategy to match.
