Strategy and virtual CTO
An ongoing technology lead for organisations that don’t have one. We set direction, keep the budget honest and report in plain English.
01
What it is
Most organisations reach a point where technology decisions are too big to leave to whoever is handiest, but not big enough to justify a full-time chief technology officer (CTO). A virtual CTO fills that gap: a senior technology lead, part-time and ongoing.
We work alongside your IT staff or provider, not instead of them. They keep things running day to day. We make sure the direction, the spend and the risk are being looked at by someone with nothing to sell.
What’s included
- Technology roadmaps and multi-year budgets
- Board papers, briefings and risk reporting
- Independent, vendor-neutral recommendations
- Oversight of your IT providers and projects
- A regular catch-up, not a ticket queue
Good for: Organisations too small for a full-time CTO or IT manager.
