FAQ
Questions about Technology Strategy and Roadmaps
What is a fractional CTO or CIO?
A fractional CTO or CIO is a senior technology leader who works with your company part-time or on a retainer. You get strategic guidance, planning and oversight without the cost of a full-time executive.
How is a technology roadmap different from an IT assessment?
An assessment describes where you are today: systems, risks and costs. A roadmap uses that picture to decide what to do next, in what order, and what it will cost. We typically do both together.
Do you recommend specific vendors?
We give vendor-neutral advice. Recommendations are based on fit, cost and risk for your situation, not on commissions.
How long does a roadmap engagement take?
It depends on the size and complexity of your organization. We scope the work and timeline after an initial discovery conversation so you know what to expect up front.
