Fractional Technology Advisory
Get continuing advice on vendors, technology priorities and changes to your systems. I stay involved so each new decision builds on an understanding of your business.
Best fitLeadership teams that want an experienced advisor to review proposals, help set priorities and follow decisions through over time.
The problem
Keep the right advice close.
Software renewals, vendor proposals and requests for new tools keep arriving. I help you compare the options and decide which changes deserve your budget and attention.
I help you compare proposals, question assumptions and keep the work aligned with your priorities. We agree which decisions and vendors the advisory covers.
What the advisory can cover
Advice grounded in how your team works.
Decision support
Challenge vendor, platform, AI, workflow, migration, and roadmap decisions before commitment.
Vendor oversight
Review proposals, assumptions, delivery risk, scope changes, and whether promised work matches operating needs.
Project priorities
Review what to do next, what can wait and what needs to happen first.
Operating review
Review recurring problems with tools, access and reporting, and agree who will address them.
Explain the options
Explain technical proposals in terms of cost, practical benefit and what your team would need to change.
Continuity
Keep working with an advisor who knows your systems and the reasons behind earlier choices.
How it starts
Agree what we will work on together.
We discuss where you need help, which vendors and projects are involved, and how often to meet.
You can start directly. If I need to review the existing systems first, we agree that work before proceeding.
Implementation is quoted separately. The retainer covers advice and vendor review.
Define the decisions
Discuss the questions and projects you want help with.
Agree the schedule
Agree who joins, how often we meet and what I will review.
Review progress
Follow up on decisions and adjust the priorities as work progresses.
Questions
Common questions about fractional advisory.
Is this managed IT?
No. This is advice and oversight, not help-desk support, device management or 24/7 incident response.
Is implementation included?
No. Small advisory analysis may occur inside the agreed scope. Material implementation, engineering, migration, or build work is scoped separately.
Does this replace internal ownership?
No. The client retains authority and names the people responsible for decisions, adoption, and ongoing operation.
How is pricing determined?
The advisory starts at $1,200 per month. The final price depends on the projects, vendors and meeting schedule involved.
