CIO Advisory
In today's fast-moving digital world businesses need strategic technology leadership to stay competitive. However, hiring a full-time CIO may not always be practical or cost-effective. Without this leadership, businesses risk making uninformed technology and data decisions and investments that can limit growth and efficiency.
Equally, large organisations with well-established technology leaders and teams can find themselves stretched meeting immediate business needs and struggling to dedicate time to long-term strategy, large-scale transformation, and innovation scouting. The rapid pace of technological change and increasing business ambitions demand a proactive approach to identifying opportunities and mitigating challenges. Our advisory services help technology leaders stay ahead by providing expert insights, strategic guidance, and support in shaping a resilient, future-ready technology roadmap.
We bring deep industry experience, insight, and hands-on expertise bridging the gap between business and technology.

Project Recovery
Technology transformation and implementation projects are inherently complex. They often involve internal teams working with unfamiliar technology or new ways of operating. Along the way, projects can run into difficulties—market shifts, incorrect assumptions, escalating costs, team or leadership changes, or misalignment with delivery partners. These challenges can lead to delays, budget overruns, unmet needs, demotivated teams, and even reputational damage or loss of stakeholder trust.
If your project is struggling, we can help you regain control, assess your options, and drive the best possible outcome.
Understanding the Issues & Challenges and identifying options - We conduct a thorough review to identify pain points, uncover underlying problems, and assess where things have gone off track.Once we understand the situation, we can provide a clear, structured options analysis. Whether it's staying the course, adapting the approach, or making the difficult decision to shelve the project, we can guide you through the best path forward.
Rebuilding Momentum & Delivery Focus - If the decision is to keep going with the project we can work directly with you to realign teams, reinvigorate the project, and put in place the structure, leadership, and additional skills and delivery plan needed to regain traction.
Vendor Negotiations & Mediation - If challenges stem from delivery partners, we can facilitate discussions, renegotiate contracts, and mediate to realign expectations and improve collaboration.
Project Exit Strategy (If Needed) - In some cases, the market or business landscape may have shifted too significantly for the project to remain viable. If exiting is the best option, we help you manage this process effectively—ensuring clear communication, minimising impact, and salvaging any valuable work completed.
