IT consulting

IT consulting that turns technology choices into a plan

Independent technical advice for companies making decisions about platforms, architecture, vendors and delivery, from people who also build the software.

Decisions that hold up when the team has to build them

Technology choices often get made under pressure, with partial information and a vendor’s slides. We bring a builder’s view: we review what you have, lay out the realistic options with their costs and risks, and give a recommendation you can defend and a plan your team can follow.

  • Practical recommendations

    Advice tied to your budget, team size and timeline, not a generic framework.

  • Architecture-aware

    We look at how systems connect, where they will strain and what is cheap to change later.

  • Clear next steps

    Every engagement ends with an ordered plan, owners and the first two weeks spelled out.

Where we help

Architecture and code review

An independent look at structure, scalability, security basics and technical debt, with findings ranked by impact.

Technology strategy

Aligning your platform choices with where the business is heading over the next one to three years.

Vendor and platform selection

Comparing build, buy and open-source options against your requirements, with total cost made explicit.

Modernization roadmaps

Moving off legacy systems in stages, keeping the business running while the foundation changes.

AI readiness assessment

Checking data, systems and processes to see which AI use cases are viable now and what to fix first.

Delivery oversight

Fractional technical leadership to steer an in-house team or an outside vendor through a project.

How an engagement works

  1. Discovery

    Interviews and a walk through your systems, goals and constraints.

  2. Assessment

    Review of architecture, code, infrastructure and delivery practice against those goals.

  3. Options

    Two or three realistic paths with trade-offs, cost ranges and risks stated plainly.

  4. Recommendation

    A single recommended direction with the reasoning behind it.

  5. Execution plan

    Sequenced work, owners, milestones and what to measure.

  6. Advisory support

    Optional ongoing guidance as the plan meets reality.

Why companies bring us in

We build as well as advise

Our recommendations account for what implementation actually takes.

No platform agenda

We are not tied to a vendor and we do not earn commission on what you buy.

Plain-language reporting

Findings written so a founder or finance lead can follow them as easily as an engineer.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a consulting engagement last?

A focused architecture review or vendor selection typically takes two to four weeks. Roadmap and strategy work can run longer. Ongoing advisory is month to month.

Do we need to share our source code?

For a code or architecture review, yes, under an NDA and with the access level you choose. For strategy and selection work, documentation and conversations are usually enough.

Can you also do the implementation?

Yes, if you want it. Many clients take our plan to their own team or another vendor, and others ask us to build it. Both are fine.

Need clarity before you commit to a technology change?

Tell us the decision in front of you. We will suggest the shortest route to a confident answer.
