Abbott
24/7 IT Service Desk & Dedicated Onsite Engineers
KompiTech provides Abbott with a 24/7 IT service desk and dedicated onsite field engineers across its European campus locations — delivering continuous IT support, hardware services, VIP assistance, and smart hands capabilities.
The Challenge
Abbott operates large campus facilities across Europe, each with hundreds of users depending on reliable IT infrastructure. The company needed a partner who could provide both a 24/7 service desk for remote triage and dedicated onsite engineers for hands-on hardware support. The IT staffing model had to include OEM-certified technicians, VIP support for senior leadership, and smart hands capabilities for data center operations — all with seamless backup coverage to ensure zero service gaps.
The Solution
KompiTech deployed eight dedicated, OEM-certified field engineers across Abbott's four European campus locations, backed by a 24/7 service desk that handles first-line support, ticket routing, and escalation management. Each engineer is fully embedded in Abbott's IT operations, handling hardware repairs, VIP requests, and smart hands tasks. A structured backup and backfill model ensures continuous coverage, while comprehensive background checks and managed onboarding maintain Abbott's security and quality standards.

Standard coverage: 8x5

24/7 service desk
Round-the-clock remote support ensuring users always have a point of contact — evenings, weekends, and holidays included.
Multi-site deployment
Engineers deployed across four European campus locations, each with dedicated staff who understand the local infrastructure and user base.
How a support request flows
From initial contact to resolution — every ticket follows a structured process coordinated between the 24/7 service desk and onsite engineers.
Ticket raised via service desk
Users contact the 24/7 service desk by phone, email, or self-service portal. The service desk logs the ticket, performs initial triage, and attempts first-line resolution remotely.
Escalation to onsite engineer
If the issue requires physical intervention, the ticket is escalated to the dedicated onsite engineer at the user’s campus location with full context and troubleshooting history.
Onsite diagnosis & repair
The field engineer performs diagnostics, executes the hardware repair or replacement, and validates the fix. For warranty-covered equipment, OEM processes are followed.
Validation & ticket closure
The engineer verifies the device is fully operational, updates the ticket with resolution details, and closes the case. Reporting is fed back to Abbott’s IT management for visibility.
