Services

Senior IT leadership, sized to where your business is today.

Most engagements start with an assessment. From there, some clients take the roadmap and run with it. Others want me to stay on and lead the work. Either way, you'll know exactly what you're getting before we start.

IT Assessment and Roadmap

A fixed scope engagement that gives leadership a clear, honest picture of IT, usually delivered in four to six weeks.

Best for: companies that know something isn't right but need a clear plan before committing to a bigger change.

  • Current state review of systems, infrastructure, security, and vendors
  • IT team and staffing assessment: roles, gaps, and what the organization needs at its next stage of growth
  • Risk review, including backup, recovery, and cybersecurity posture
  • Vendor and contract review to find overlap and overspend
  • A prioritized roadmap with costs and timelines your CFO can plan around

Fractional CIO Leadership

Ongoing executive ownership of IT, on a monthly retainer, for a fraction of the cost of a full-time CIO.

Best for: growing companies that need a CIO's judgment and accountability but not a full-time executive salary.

  • A seat at the leadership table for technology decisions
  • IT strategy and roadmap tied to business goals
  • IT budget ownership and cost management
  • Vendor selection, negotiation, and management
  • Coaching and leading your internal IT team
  • Executing major initiatives: ERP, cloud migration, security programs, disaster recovery

MSP Oversight

The strategic layer above your managed service provider.

Best for: companies frustrated that their MSP isn't "thinking strategically," when the real gap is that no one was ever hired to.

  • Define what your MSP owns, and what they don't
  • Set service levels, track them, and hold the provider to them
  • Review their recommendations before you spend money
  • Decide with evidence whether to keep, fix, or replace the relationship

How an engagement works

From first call to a plan you can act on.

  1. Conversation

    A 30 minute call to see if there's a fit. Sometimes the honest answer is "not yet."

  2. Assess

    I learn your business, your systems, and your people.

  3. Roadmap

    You get a clear, prioritized plan in plain business language.

  4. Lead

    If you want, I stay on to own the execution.

Independent advice

I don't resell hardware, software, or managed services to my Fractional CIO clients, and I don't take referral fees on what I recommend. My only incentive is getting the decision right for your business.
