Every engagement is scoped to the problem in front of you. Some clients bring me in to lead IT two days a week. Others need a three-week assessment before their next board meeting, or a senior hand on an M&A integration. Here's what I do.
Flagship
Fractional & Interim IT Leadership
Bring me in to lead IT — one to three days a week — owning strategy, team leadership, vendor management, board reporting, and the hard calls. Ideal for companies that have outgrown their IT manager or are between permanent leaders. Call the role whatever fits internally; I bring the authority and operating rigor of a full-time executive.
Engagement: 3–12 months · 90-day minimum
AI & Agents
AI Strategy Partnership
Strategic partnership through the agentic-AI transition: AI use-case portfolio, governance baseline, data-readiness assessment, minimum production standard for agents, and cross-functional alignment across finance, legal, security, and business. For CIOs and executives who need to move AI from pilot theater to a credible operating plan — and want a senior IT partner working the transition with them, not selling yesterday's playbook.
Engagement: 4–8 weeks + ongoing advisory retainer
M&A
M&A Technology Integration
End-to-end IT integration for acquisitions and divestitures — infrastructure, applications, databases, business processes. And technology due diligence for PE firms and corporate development teams who need a trusted senior read on the target.
Engagement: 1–3 weeks for DD · 3–9 months for integration
Strategy
IT Strategy & Roadmap
Current-state assessment, gap analysis, and a 12–36 month technology roadmap with a real budget model and an executive presentation that lands. For companies about to scale, modernize, or raise.
Engagement: 3–6 weeks, fixed fee
Risk & Compliance
Cybersecurity & Compliance
Risk assessments, framework gap analysis (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, NIST), remediation roadmaps, policy libraries, and ongoing advisory through audit prep. I've led a corporate-wide ISO 27001 certification end to end, zero breaches across full tenure.
Engagement: 2–8 weeks + optional oversight retainer
Cloud & Infrastructure
Cloud Strategy & FinOps
Cloud readiness, phased migration plans, vendor selection across AWS, Azure, and GCP, and FinOps discipline to get the spend under control. Proven at scale — I've cut IT as a percentage of revenue by 37% without slowing delivery.
Engagement: 3–6 weeks for strategy · ongoing execution oversight available
Assessment
IT Assessments & Audits
A fast, executive-ready read on your IT environment: infrastructure, security posture, application portfolio, vendor spend, team structure, compliance gaps. Prioritized remediation plan included. Low commitment, high insight.
Engagement: 1–3 weeks, fixed fee
Operations
Vendor, Team & Org Design
Vendor evaluation, RFP management, and contract negotiation — often on a savings-share model. Plus IT team org design: structure, roles, hiring plans, and the management practices that make it stick as you grow.
Engagement: 2–6 weeks per engagement
