Strategy & vCIO
A fractional CIO and CISO: a technology roadmap, a budget you can defend, vendor negotiations, and the security answers your insurer and customers ask for.
What is included
- Quarterly technology roadmap and budget
- Risk register reviewed each quarter
- Vendor and contract review before you sign
- Security questionnaires and insurer applications
- Board or owner-level reporting
- Technical due diligence for acquisitions and investments
A virtual CIO gives you the senior technology leadership a larger company would hire full time, for a fraction of the cost and only for the hours it needs. We sit on your side of the table for the big decisions: what to buy, what to build, what to stop paying for.
Our founder has run infrastructure architecture and DevOps for enterprise platforms and led technology companies. The advice is practical, written down, and tied to a budget.
A good fit if
- Technology decisions are made by whoever shouts loudest.
- You cannot tell if your IT spend is high or low.
- A customer, investor or insurer wants to talk to your CIO and you do not have one.
How it works

Baseline
Where you are, what you spend, what is at risk.
- Step 2
Roadmap
Twelve months of changes with costs and reasons.
- Step 3
Quarterly review
What changed, what it cost, what is next.

On a service plan
Use your included hours for this.
Every plan includes hours of work or consulting each month, priority in the queue and InfraGuard monitoring. Most of what this page describes can be done inside those hours or quoted as a fixed project.
Start with an assessment.
A 30-minute call, then a one-page map of where you stand and what we would do first. No obligation.
