New Zealand is facing a productivity challenge. Compared to other OECD nations, we’re falling behind, and this is affecting our economic growth and overall prosperity.

While there are numerous factors at play, one often overlooked aspect is how effectively businesses are utilizing technology to enhance efficiency and inspire innovation.

Many New Zealand businesses find their IT departments caught in a relentless cycle of addressing urgent issues—fixing systems, troubleshooting problems, and responding to immediate demands.

This reactive “break-fix” approach leaves scant room for strategic initiatives that could genuinely transform a business. Does that sound familiar? At Silicon we believe that IT should propel innovation forward, not hold it back.

That’s why we provide co-managed IT support solutions that extend beyond mere break-fix services.

We collaborate with you to develop a customized strategy that aligns with your unique objectives, freeing your internal IT team to focus on what truly matters.
