A technical lead and an IT director, without the salaries
Your Technical Alignment Manager keeps your systems to best-practice standards. Your virtual CIO turns that into a roadmap and budget that serves the business. Together they make IT strategic.
2 roles, one joined-up view
Technical Alignment Manager (TAM). Reviews your environment against our standards: security settings, patching, backups, licensing, hardware age and network health. Anything out of line goes on a prioritised plan.
Virtual Chief Information Officer (vCIO). Takes the TAM's findings into business language. Budgets, a three-year roadmap, your risk register and board-ready reporting. The person who asks where the business is heading and makes sure IT is ready for it.
