The inact platform
One portal. Every important part of your IT service.
inACT is our unique platform encompassing every part of your IT. It audits every device in your estate, tracks your compliance to DfE Standards and gives you a plan of action to get you to where you want to be.
How it works
We deploy the software
A lightweight agent is loaded onto your infrastructure. Nothing for your team to install, and no disruption to teaching.
It listens for a month or two
It finds every piece of ICT equipment on the estate and records the age, processor, serial number and warranty position of each one.
Everything imports into inACT
The data is pulled into the platform automatically and mapped against every DfE standard category, giving you a red, amber or green position on each.
You get a report and a plan
We sit down with you and take you through where the pain points are, what has to be dealt with first, and what it will cost across the next five years.
Red, amber, green. Nothing to interpret.
Every asset and every DfE standard category carries a live status. Green is on track, amber needs planning for, red needs action. Leaders can open the portal and understand the health of the whole estate without asking anyone, and without a spreadsheet in sight.
From “what’s failing?” to “what should we plan for?”
inACT turns the lifecycle position of your estate into a five-year replacement plan: stabilise, balance, prepare, refresh. You see the pressure coming before it arrives, phase the spend, and walk into a governors’ meeting with the evidence already in front of you.
What sits inside the portal
The assessment is where it starts. This is what you keep.
My Assets
Your whole equipment estate with a live lifecycle status, so replacement becomes a decision rather than a reaction.
My Compliance
Where you sit against each DfE standard, which gaps are still open, and what closing them involves.
My Action Logs
Everything agreed in a review, with an owner, a due date and a status. The same list at the next meeting.
My Visit Reports
What was found and agreed on each service and technical visit, kept alongside everything else.
Tickets & Contracts
Support activity, active agreements and subscriptions in one view, without switching systems.
Key Roles & RACI
Who is responsible, accountable, consulted and informed, written down rather than assumed.
