This capability inherits the IT Helpdesk Specialist's pricing model. The role's launch fee + monthly retainer + role-level usage cover every capability under the role. Adding this capability to an active deployment does not change the price.
What this capability handles
Access Request Handling intakes access requests, checks them against the policy matrix, provisions or de-provisions through the identity provider, and logs actions — with privileged and policy-exception requests routed to the admin.
Workflow summary
Reads request, checks policy, provisions or de-provisions, logs action.

When this capability shows up
Patterns where access request handling is part of the launch set, with volume and pricing anchored to each company profile.
Mid-market SaaS scaling headcount and SaaS footprint
SaaS · 200-500
1,200 / mo
A 300-person B2B SaaS company runs 1200 IT tickets a month. Access provisioning lags new-hire day one. Resets overwhelm the admin queue. Licence waste goes unseen.
IT Helpdesk Specialist activates access handling and password reset. Provisioning lands on day one; resets self-serve; admins shift to strategic work.
Expected outcomes at this volume: access-provisioning cycle down 60-80%, reset self-serve above 90%, admin hours recovered weekly.

Services firm with heterogeneous tooling and asset churn
Services · 300-800
2,500 / mo
A 600-person services firm runs 2500 tickets a month across access, resets, assets, and licences. Asset events slip. Licence utilization data is months old. Renewal windows catch the team late.
IT Helpdesk Specialist activates all four capabilities. Provisioning and resets run at cadence; asset events log cleanly; licence-reclaim and renewal actions ship monthly.
Expected outcomes: cycle-time reduction 50-70%, asset-record accuracy above 95%, material monthly licence reclaim.

Upper-mid eCommerce with heavy device and asset churn
eCommerce · 250-800
3,200 / mo
A 550-person eCommerce retailer runs 3200 IT tickets a month. Seasonal hiring drives access backlog. Device transfers between stores and HQ slip. Licence utilization is read once a quarter and the team renews blind.
IT Helpdesk Specialist activates all four capabilities. Access and resets run at cadence; asset events log cleanly across stores; licence utilization drives reclaim and renewal decisions in the month they happen.
Expected outcomes: access cycle 60-80% faster, asset-record accuracy above 95%, licence spend held accountable monthly, admin hours recovered weekly.
Monthly cost
€1.3k–€3.8k
