One-off IT projects for SMEs in French-speaking Switzerland
No need for a managed IT contract to fix a specific problem: securing, migrating, auditing or documenting. We step in, we deliver, with no duration commitment.
How a project runs
A signposted journey in four steps. You always know where the project stands and what you will be given.
- 01
Scoping
Scope, deliverable and price set in writing before we start.
- 02
Intervention
We carry out the work, you follow progress at every step.
- 03
Validation
Testing and quality control, with you, before handover.
- 04
Delivery
The deliverable and its documentation are handed over. You are free.
When to use an IT project
IT projects address a one-off, well-defined need, with no long contract or subscription.
- You are changing provider and need the existing setup to be documented.
- You have a serious doubt about your level of security.
- You want to repatriate your data to Swiss hosting.
- Data protection compliance has been required of you and you don't know where to start.
- You have inherited an infrastructure that no one really understands.
- An internal IT project is stuck and you need an outside perspective.
What we take on
Well-scoped interventions, with an indicative duration and a deliverable defined from the start.
Security audit
Inventory of vulnerabilities, configuration testing, report with priorities. You know exactly where you are exposed.
Swiss cloud migration
Moving your data and services to Infomaniak or a Swiss equivalent, with a planned cutover.
Data protection audit
Mapping of personal data, identification of non-compliances, documented action plan.
Infrastructure documentation
Network diagram, hardware and software inventory, accounts and access. Everything your future provider will need to know.
Bringing things up to standard
Fixing known problems: shared passwords, untested backups, unknown licences, orphan accounts.
Advice and scoping
An independent opinion on a tool choice, an architecture or an ongoing project. With no interest in selling you anything.
Your case is not on the list?
Describe your situation to us. We respond within 24 business hours with an estimate or an honest refusal if it doesn't fit our scope.
Indicative ranges excluding any VAT and excluding third-party costs (licences, hosting). Each project is priced as a fixed package after scoping: no hourly billing during the project.
What you get, every time
The same method for all projects, whatever the subject.
A defined scope
Before we start, we agree in writing on what is included, what is not, and what you will get at the end.
A fixed price
The project is billed as a fixed package. No hourly meter running out of control along the way.
A concrete deliverable
A report, a migrated infrastructure, documentation, an action plan. Something tangible, not an invoice for hours.
No commitment to continue
At the end of the project, you are free. If you then want managed IT, AlpenCare is there. Otherwise, we leave cleanly.
Frequently asked questions about IT Projects
Can’t find your answer?
Ask us your question01 How is a project billed?
All IT projects are billed as a fixed package, defined on request after scoping. As a guide: CHF 1,500 to 4,000 for a security audit, CHF 1,500 to 3,500 for a data protection audit, CHF 1,500 to 8,000 for a cloud migration, depending on size and complexity. There is no hourly billing during the project: the price agreed at the start is the final price, except for a change of scope that you explicitly approve.
02 Do you have to be an AlpenCare client to order a project?
No. IT projects are completely independent of managed IT. Many clients discover us through a one-off project (audit, migration, documentation) before possibly moving to AlpenCare. No duration commitment is required.
03 How long does a typical project last?
It depends on the scope: 3 to 5 days for infrastructure documentation, about 1 week for a data protection audit, 1 to 2 weeks for a security audit, 2 to 6 weeks for a cloud migration. The timeline is announced at the time of the quote.
04 Will a cloud migration interrupt our activity?
We plan the cutover to keep disruption to a minimum, generally with a coexistence phase and a final switch on a time slot chosen with you.
05 What happens after delivery?
You receive the deliverable and you are free. We stay available if you have questions about what was done. If you then want long-term follow-up, we can switch to AlpenCare managed IT, but it is never imposed.
06 And if my need doesn't fit any of these categories?
Describe your situation to us. We respond within 24 business hours with an estimate, a scoping proposal, or an honest refusal if it doesn't fit our scope. We prefer to say no clearly rather than drag you into a project we don't master.
