Expert IT & AI Leadership · Fractional, Flexible, Affordable
Fractional CIO Services from Proven Experts
Through our flagship Contract CIO+® tech leadership service, we provide an experienced leader to midsize organizations, to directly lead their IT organization – but for far less than the cost of a permanent full-time CIO.
These engagements provide trusted consultants – sector-matched to your organization – in a model scaled to your needs. In guiding IT budgets, mentoring staff, overseeing vendors, advising the board, and shaping enterprise AI and data strategies, your Virtual CIO leads as a virtual member of your executive leadership team.
The difference? You receive 100% of the Expertise for a Fraction of the Cost®. Virtual CIO services are tailored to each client’s unique needs, representing a cost-effective alternative to full-time CIO compensation packages, without sacrificing quality or impact.
Strategic Guidance for your IT vision
Virtual CIO Services · the Perfect Solution for Mid-Market IT Leadership
The spectrum of impact from wise versus poor (or even mediocre) IT decisions has never been wider. From cybersecurity to enterprise systems, from data architecture to AI, technology strategy is now inseparable from business strategy. Yet many companies cannot justify the escalating compensation packages of full-time CIOs and CTOs.
Virtual CIO engagements solve this challenge. Our expert consultants deliver strategy & leadership on:
IT budgets, architecture, and vendor negotiations
Cybersecurity protections and compliance posture
Data architecture, analytics, AI, & automation
Roadmaps to staffing models, culture alignment, and vendor partnerships
An experienced leader to stabilize, optimize, and monetize IT & AI
This model provides 100% of the Expertise for a Fraction of the Cost®, making enterprise-level tech leadership accessible to the mid-market.
