Managed Claude Services
SLA-backed Claude operations — model-version migration, prompt-eval drift detection, cost optimisation, and on-call coverage. Your Claude programme keeps running while your engineering team builds the next thing.
The short version
Managed Claude services are the operational answer to a problem most leaders only realise post-launch — running a production Claude system is harder than building it. NINtec offers Claude as a service in a retainer model: continuous evaluation against drift, model-version migration when Anthropic ships, cost optimisation as workload patterns evolve, prompt-injection adversarial testing on a schedule, and on-call coverage for when something breaks at 2am. Our claude managed retainer spans clients across regulated and non-regulated workloads, with anthropic managed services tiers from advisory-only through full-stack ops. The point is not to keep clients dependent — most retainers shrink over time as internal teams ramp. The point is to keep the Claude programme running at the standard it launched with, while your engineers focus on the next set of use cases.
What's in scope
Eval Drift Monitoring
Continuous evaluation against the production prompts. Drift alerts when answer quality, retrieval recall, or agent success rate drops below threshold. Root-cause analysis included.
Model Version Migration
When Anthropic ships a new model, we run the migration — eval parity validation, prompt re-tuning, cost re-modelling, graduated cutover with rollback.
Cost Optimisation Reviews
Quarterly cost reviews — prompt-caching opportunities, model routing tuning, prompt simplification. Most clients see 15–30% cost reduction in year one of the retainer.
On-Call Coverage
24x7 on-call rotation for production incidents. Tiered SLA — P1 acknowledgement in 15 minutes, P1 mitigation in 1 hour for the highest tier.
Prompt Injection + Adversarial Testing
Scheduled adversarial testing against live prompts. New jailbreak techniques tested against your system before they show up in incidents.
Quarterly Architecture Review
A NINtec Solution Architect reviews architecture and roadmap quarterly — flags emerging risks, capacity issues, and capability gaps. Keeps the programme honest.
How NINtec delivers
Managed services follow a runbook-driven operations model — incidents have defined response procedures, eval drift has defined remediation paths, and model migrations have a templated rollout plan. Runbooks are written once and improved continuously; the goal is operational predictability, not heroic recovery.

How an engagement runs
Onboarding
Week 1–4
Existing system handover, runbook authoring, eval-suite installation, alerting integration with your incident management, and on-call rotation activation.
Steady-State Operations
Quarter 1+
Continuous eval, monthly cost reviews, quarterly architecture review, and on-call coverage. Model migrations run as needed when Anthropic ships.
Retainer Right-Sizing
Year 2+
Most clients shrink their retainer over time as internal teams ramp. We ratchet down rather than push for expansion. Long-term clients eventually move to fractional-advisor mode.
