Services › Advisory & Fractional CTO
Advisory & Fractional CTO
Executive-level IT leadership without the overhead of a full-time hire. You get strategic direction, vendor accountability, and a roadmap that actually gets executed.
Every engagement starts with a current-state audit. What we find determines what we fix — and what success looks like for your specific situation.
What You Get
Executive IT Leadership
Direction, prioritization, and decision support — so your team executes the right work in the right order. You stop firefighting and start building.
Roadmap & Delivery Oversight
Strategy without delivery accountability is just a slide deck. We own the roadmap and stay accountable to milestones — not just the recommendations.
Vendor & Risk Management
We manage your vendors so you don’t have to. Contract reviews, security gaps, cost rationalization — handled before they become problems.
How It Works
What the first 90 days look like
Every engagement is different. This is the skeleton — the specifics get defined in the discovery call.
01
Current-state audit
Systems, vendors, contracts, costs, and risk exposure. We document what exists before recommending anything.
02
Prioritized roadmap
Ranked list of what to fix, what to defer, and what to kill — with budget ranges and decision rationale attached to each.
03
Execution cadence
Weekly or biweekly check-ins. We hold vendors accountable, unblock your team, and keep the plan moving.
04
Ongoing advisory
Monthly strategic reviews. We adapt the roadmap as your business changes — not as a formality, as an operating discipline.
Who This Is For
Clients who get the most out of this
Fractional CTO isn’t for everyone. These are the situations where it consistently delivers.
High fit
Healthcare practice, 10–80 staff
No dedicated IT leadership. Vendors are running the show. HIPAA exposure is unquantified. Systems are held together by whoever is least busy.
High fit
Legal firm scaling past 20 attorneys
Practice management software decisions getting made without an IT lens. Security posture lags behind what clients expect. Costs are opaque.
High fit
SMB post-acquisition or rapid growth
Two IT environments that need to merge. Vendor contracts that don’t make sense at the new scale. A board asking questions you can’t answer yet.
Ready to talk through your situation?
We start with a discovery call — no obligation, no sales pitch. Just a direct conversation about what you’re working with and where we can help.
