Technology decisions that need a senior outside view.
Three areas of work: technology reviews of the systems and spend you already have, fractional CTO leadership of the change that follows, and technology due diligence when a transaction is on the table. Each engagement is independently scoped, with its own duration, fee shape and output.
Technology reviews
An independent, experienced read of the systems and spend you already have, looking for upside as well as risk. Fixed-scope reviews, each delivered as a written plan with clear, costed recommendations. The usual place to start is the Technology Return Review.
The Technology Return Review
What your technology spend returns, and where AI would genuinely improve it.
Three weeks, fixed fee. The usual starting point.

An independent read on whether the ERP or CRM programme is salvageable.
Two to three weeks, fixed fee.
Read more ›Programme reset
A digital product programme, redirected to commercial return.
Two to four weeks, fixed fee.
Read more ›Board reporting
Technology, reported in language the board can act on.
Two to three weeks, fixed fee; six-month check-in scoped separately.
Read more ›Fractional CTO leadership
Senior technology ownership over time, for organisations that need the judgement without a full-time hire. Usually this means leading the change a review identifies: replacing ageing systems, redesigning the processes around them, and holding suppliers to account.
The ongoing option
A fractional CTO retainer
For organisations that want a steady hand rather than a one-off review: a monthly retainer that keeps technology decisions owned, challenged and reported, board cycle after board cycle. One named technology owner across all suppliers, a quarterly board pack in plain English, the vendor and renewal conversations run for you, and pragmatic AI adoption where it earns its place.
Sized to sit within an established budget, scoped against what the business actually needs. On enquiry.
Technology due diligence
For boards buying a business, or preparing to sell one: a clear read of the technology estate, the risks, and the cost to put things right, in language the deal team can rely on. Includes an AI-maturity assessment of the target where it matters.
Tech and cyber due diligence
Buy-side technology diligence, written in the language of the deal.
Three to six weeks, fixed fee or scoped to the deal.
