Systems & Software Selection
Challenge: Replacing or upgrading core systems isn’t just about picking software. It’s about fit, setup, and adoption without disruption.

Improve Existing Tech
The Challenge: Poor setup and limited training often lead to inefficiency and frustration. Many firms jump to costly system replacements, but is that always necessary?
Our Solution:
I’ll assess your current systems first. By fixing configuration and usage issues, you unlock untapped potential delivering fast, cost-effective improvements without the disruption of a full replacement. -

Vendors & Suppliers
Challenge: Issues with IT providers, trust gaps, downtime, or cyber risks can derail progress and disrupt daily operations.
Solution:
Clarify what your firm needs, shortlist the right specialists, and manage the transition end-to-end, minimising downtime and restoring control. -

Cybersecurity & Risk Management
Challenge: Firms often lack independent guidance and clarity on what’s required to manage cyber risks, maintain business continuity, and respond effectively to threats. Any uncertainty leaves the firm exposed.
Solution: Define the specific protection your firm needs, create a clear checklist, and work with existing vendors to improve, remediate and identify gaps, which I then close.

Project Rescue
The Challenge: Too often, projects reach implementation before firms realise the solution doesn’t meet their needs. This leads to stress, delays, and wasted investment.
Our Solution: I step in to reassess and redefine requirements, then work with vendors to reconfigure systems or explore better alternatives. This ensures you recover quickly and move forward with confidence; without repeating past mistakes.
