Scalable, Secure IT For International Mission

International Mission To Jewish People is a religious group based in Witney in Oxfordshire. Akita partnered with the organisation to modernise its IT estate, improve operational resilience, and enable scalable growth through strategic consultancy, infrastructure enhancements, and ongoing support services.

Enabling a Modern, Scalable Device Strategy

A key priority for the organisation was ensuring staff had access to reliable, up-to-date devices to support productivity.

Across multiple projects, Akita has supported procurement, configuration, and deployment of new laptops, as well as the replacement of ageing hardware.

By streamlining device provisioning and maintaining a consistent hardware standard, the organisation has benefited from improved user experience, reduced downtime, and a more predictable lifecycle approach to IT assets.

Strengthening Core Infrastructure And Connectivity

To support business growth, the organisation required enhancements to its underlying IT infrastructure. Akita has delivered targeted upgrades, including the deployment of new network switching and improvements to server resources.

We’ve also supported the implementation of enhanced connectivity, with a leased line connection significantly improving internet reliability and performance.

These upgrades played a crucial role in underpinning wider improvements across the IT estate.

Enhancing Cloud, Data, And Application Services

Akita worked closely with the organisation to modernise its approach to data and applications. This included the migration to SharePoint, enabling more effective collaboration and document management across teams.

In addition, licensing and platform requirements, including  Adobe licensing, were successfully deployed and managed, ensuring users have access to the tools they need without administrative overhead.

Collectively, these changes have enabled a more agile and collaborative working environment, where teams can access information quickly and work more efficiently.

Improving Cyber Security Posture And Compliance

Security and compliance were central to the engagement. Akita has delivered a number of initiatives designed to strengthen the organisation’s cyber resilience, including the rollout of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Microsoft Intune, and Entra ID.

These technologies provide greater control over user access, device security, and identity management—ensuring that only authorised users can access business-critical systems.

To further support compliance, Akita has conducted a GDPR audit, identifying areas for improvement and providing clear recommendations to align with regulatory requirements.

This proactive approach to security has significantly reduced risk exposure, while giving stakeholders confidence that systems and data are protected to a high standard.

Supporting Business Continuity And Resilience

Ensuring uptime and business continuity was another important focus. Akita supported this through both infrastructure and support initiatives.

Projects such as UPS battery replacement, server capacity upgrades, and the introduction of backup and resilience tooling help protect the organisation against outages and system failures.

In parallel, our NOC support services ensure that potential issues are identified and resolved before they escalate. This combination of preventative measures and responsive support has created a robust IT environment that can withstand operational challenges.

Results And Impact

Through this partnership, the organisation has achieved improved operational efficiency through modern devices, better tooling, and streamlined processes

Enhanced system performance and reliability, driven by targeted infrastructure investments, have also been complemented by a stronger security and compliance posture, reducing exposure to cyber risk.

We’ve also enabled greater collaboration and productivity through cloud-based platforms and data accessibility.

Overall, downtime and increased resilience has ensured technology supports operations and future growth.
