The technology sparring partner for management
Do you have important technology decisions to make, but lack the technical background? Are your software projects getting out of hand? Does no one know whether your IT investments make sense? Or is a full-time CTO not being utilized to full capacity?
As a CTO consultant, I am your technical sparring partner on equal footing. I translate complex IT topics into business decisions and ensure that digitalization contributes to business success without having to build up your own IT expertise.
Typical assignments:
- Strategic technology decisions: Which systems are really needed? Make or buy? Cloud or on-premise?
- Digitalization roadmap: What should we digitalize first? How do we get there step by step?
- IT budget optimization: Where is money being wasted? What delivers real ROI?
- Vendor management: Evaluating software providers, negotiating contracts, reducing dependencies
- Projekt turnaround: Analyzing failed or stalled projects and getting them back on track
- Technology review: For investments, acquisitions, or partnerships
How we work together:
From one-off consulting for specific decisions to regular sparring as an “on-call CTO.” The intensity and scope are tailored to the situation. Many of my clients also book me for one day per month as a strategic consultant.
For managing directors of SMEs and founders of start-ups who need to make informed technical decisions without their own expertise.
The collaboration can be on an ad hoc basis and as needed, but can also last for several months or even years.
