Technology and IT Strategy Consulting
We take technology strategy beyond the slide deck and tie it to budget, ownership and measurable business results.
Most technology strategy documents are documents that were written correctly and changed nothing. The reason is not weak content. The reason is that the strategy was not tied to budget, organization and measurement.
A strategy that is not tied is a statement of intent. A strategy that is tied is a series of decisions.
What we do differently
We tie every strategic move to three things: which budget line funds it, who owns it and which indicator measures it. Without these three, the item does not enter the strategy.
How we work
The gap between business strategy, competitive pressure and the current technology base is identified.
Three to five strategic options are compared by cost, risk and return profile. No single recommendation is presented; the decision is left to the board.
The chosen direction is turned into a three-year wave plan, a budget and an OKR set.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a strategy engagement take?
Eight weeks. Anything shorter is not enough to understand the current state; anything longer delays the moment of decision.
We already have a strategy. Do we start from scratch?
No. Most engagements begin by understanding why the existing strategy is not being executed, and the result is usually not a new strategy but tying the existing one to budget and ownership.
