Perigon One’s co-managed model has given us the best of both worlds — internal ownership and strategic direction, backed by the technical depth of a full IT team. It means our internal IT leader can focus on the business, while Perigon One keeps the operational and technical side moving.
Pressure Dynamics Group is an Australian engineering and industrial business that develops and supports specialised pressure and fluid-related equipment for demanding sectors including mining and offshore operations.
As the business continued to grow across multiple locations, technology became increasingly important to supporting day-to-day operations. Infrastructure, cybersecurity, business systems, communications, and end-user support all needed to scale alongside the business. Perigon One implemented a co-managed IT model that combined internal ownership with the capability of a full technical team, enabling Pressure Dynamics to build a more sustainable and scalable IT function while maintaining strong strategic leadership.
Pressure Dynamics Group had reached a point where IT had become too broad and too critical to be effectively managed by a single internal resource.
The business relied heavily on technology to support operations, communications, infrastructure, security, and business-critical applications across multiple locations. While reliable day-to-day support remained essential, the organisation also needed someone internally who could work closely with leadership, understand business priorities, manage vendors, and guide technology decisions.
Without the right support structure, too much responsibility sat with either a single IT person or with executives who did not always have the technical context needed to make informed decisions.
Pressure Dynamics wanted to maintain reliable day-to-day operations, reduce reliance on a single resource, improve communication between IT and leadership, access broader technical capability, and create a scalable IT model that could support future growth.
Perigon One implemented a co-managed IT partnership that combined internal ownership with the capability and depth of a full IT department.
The engagement began by taking responsibility for the operational side of IT, providing Pressure Dynamics with immediate access to a broader team of service desk, technical, project delivery, and account management resources. User support, infrastructure administration, technical escalations, and day-to-day operational requirements could now be managed by Perigon One rather than falling solely on a single internal resource.
As the partnership evolved, the relationship became a true co-managed model. Pressure Dynamics retained ownership of technology strategy and business alignment, while Perigon One became the delivery engine responsible for technical execution, operational support, and specialist expertise.
This approach allowed the internal IT leader to focus on understanding business requirements, working closely with executives, managing priorities, overseeing vendors, and guiding technology direction across the organisation.
The result was a clear division of responsibility where business ownership and strategic alignment remained internal, while technical delivery and operational support were backed by the capability of a full IT team.
The co-managed model provided Pressure Dynamics with a more mature, scalable, and sustainable IT function.
Rather than relying on one person to manage every aspect of technology, the business gained access to a broader team of technical specialists while still maintaining strong internal ownership and accountability.
For the executive team, the partnership created clearer communication, improved visibility, and greater confidence in technology decisions. For the internal IT leader, it created the capacity to focus on higher-value initiatives such as strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, vendor management, and business alignment rather than being consumed by day-to-day operational demands.
For the wider business, it delivered more reliable IT operations, faster access to specialist expertise, and a stronger technology foundation capable of supporting future growth.
Most importantly, Pressure Dynamics established a sustainable operating model that balances internal leadership with external capability, ensuring technology can continue to scale alongside the business.
