An IT Consulting Firm for Defined Projects, Not Open-Ended Retainers

A structured review of what you actually have: network, servers, endpoints, identity, licensing, backups, and vendor contracts. We document current state, measure it against where the business is heading, and score every gap by risk and cost to fix. You finish the engagement with an asset inventory, network diagrams, a written findings report, and a prioritized roadmap that separates what to do in the next 90 days from what belongs in next fiscal year.

Microsoft 365 and Azure migrations, on-premises server retirement, file shares moved to SharePoint or OneDrive, and tenant consolidation after an acquisition. We inventory workloads, map dependencies, confirm the destination fits your licensing position, and build a cutover plan with a pilot group and documented rollback steps. Execution is scheduled around your business calendar, so finance is not migrating mailboxes during close week and the warehouse is not offline during a shipping peak.

An evidence-based posture review covering identity and MFA coverage, privileged access, endpoint protection, patch levels, email security, network segmentation, logging, and whether backups can actually be restored. Findings go into a risk register with likelihood, impact, and a named owner rather than a vague letter grade. The deliverable is a sequenced remediation plan that distinguishes the items to fix this month from the ones that need a budget cycle and a project of their own.

HIPAA, CMMC and NIST 800-171, PCI DSS, and the FTC Safeguards Rule. We scope which systems fall inside the boundary and which can be carved out, run a control-by-control gap analysis, and produce the artifacts auditors and prime contractors ask for: written policies, a System Security Plan, a POA&M with dates and owners, and evidence that the technical controls exist. The result is a defensible position and a realistic timeline instead of a checkbox exercise.

ERP and line-of-business applications, phone systems, internet circuits, backup platforms, and security tooling. We write the requirements with the people who will use the system, build a scored shortlist, run structured demos against your real scenarios, and check references that the vendor did not hand you. We also review contract terms, auto-renewal language, data ownership, and exit clauses before signature. Recommendations are vendor-neutral and scored against written criteria you keep.

Before the deal closes: what the target actually runs, what it owes in licensing, what technical debt and security exposure the buyer inherits, and what integration will realistically cost. After it closes: domain and tenant consolidation, identity merges, application rationalization, and a retirement plan for duplicate systems. Deal teams get a written diligence report they can price risk against, and integration work sequenced so day-one operations for both companies keep running.

A new suite, a second location, or a warehouse coming online. We design the network and wireless coverage for the actual floor plan, specify cabling and rack layout, coordinate circuits with carriers so connectivity is live and tested before the furniture arrives, and plan the physical move of servers, phones, and workstations. Everything runs to a dated cutover plan with a defined point of no return and a fallback that has been tested, not assumed.

We set recovery time and recovery point objectives with the people who own each business process, then test whether your current backups can actually meet them. Frequently they cannot, and nobody knew. The engagement produces a written recovery runbook, a real restore test with documented results and timings, a continuity plan that covers people and facilities alongside systems, and a gap list showing exactly what must change to hit the objectives you agreed to.

Most technology consulting work fails at the budget conversation, not the technical one. We translate findings into a multi-year capital and operating plan: what refreshes when, which licenses renew and at what quantity, where a subscription replaces a purchase, and what each initiative costs in dollars and in downtime. Finance gets numbers that survive a budget review, and leadership gets a sequence showing what breaks if a line item slips a year. Roadmaps are dated and revisited, not filed once.

Quoting systems that do not talk to accounting, inventory maintained in two places, and reports rebuilt by hand every month. We map how data actually moves between your line-of-business applications, find the manual re-keying and the spreadsheets holding the process together, and evaluate whether the fix is native integration, middleware, or replacing one of the systems. The deliverable is a data flow diagram, a list of integration points worth automating, and an honest estimate of effort for each.

Before Microsoft 365 Copilot or any AI tool touches your data, someone has to answer whether your permissions are clean enough to survive it. We review SharePoint and OneDrive sharing sprawl, sensitivity labeling, retention, and who can see what today, then identify the workflows where automation returns real hours. You get a readiness checklist, the remediation required first, and a shortlist of use cases scored by value and risk rather than by vendor enthusiasm.
