What exactly is a vCIO?

A virtual Chief Information Officer: senior technology leadership delivered as a service. You get the roadmap, budgeting, and board-level input a CIO would provide, for a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.

We are too small for IT strategy, surely?

If you are big enough for IT to fail a tender, blow a budget, or block a growth plan, you are big enough for a roadmap. For a 20-person firm that can be a single well-maintained document and four review meetings a year. The point is deciding deliberately rather than reacting.

Can you sit in on board or management meetings?

Yes. We can join periodically to present the roadmap, report on risk, and answer technology questions directly, so decisions get made with accurate information in the room.

Will you help us evaluate other suppliers, even competitors?

Yes. The vCIO role means sitting on your side of the table. If a proposal you have received is good value, we will say so. If it is over-specified or over-priced, we will explain why in plain terms.

IT Strategy & vCIO

Board-level technology guidance without a full-time CIO salary. We build and maintain your IT roadmap, plan budgets, and sit on your side of the table when suppliers, auditors, or clients ask hard questions.
