Engagements

Start with a sprint.
Scale from there.

Most clients begin with a fixed-fee, two-week AI Readiness Sprint. When it proves out, three engagement tiers take the work further, from operating architecture to ongoing fractional leadership.

AI Readiness Sprint

For businesses that know AI should be helping but aren't sure where to start. We map where your team's time actually goes, identify the highest-value use cases, and stand up one working pilot with your people. You leave with results in hand, not a slide deck.

What you get
  • Workflow and time audit across key roles
  • Prioritized AI use-case roadmap with expected time savings
  • Tool recommendation matched to your stack and budget (Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, or automation platforms)
  • One working pilot deployed with your team
  • Data, security, and acceptable-use guardrails
01
Tier I · Diagnostic · Fixed Fee
Operating Architecture Assessment

A structured 2–3 week diagnostic of your firm's full operating layer — vendors, systems, workflows, and decision-making infrastructure. For firms that sense something is wrong but don't have language for it yet. The right starting point for every engagement.

  • Current-state infrastructure map
  • Vendor stack audit & cost analysis
  • Technology gap assessment
  • Priority risk register
  • Phased architecture recommendations
  • Executive readout and written blueprint
02
Tier II · Implementation · Project-Based
Infrastructure & Vendor Architecture

Hands-on redesign of the operating foundation. Vendor negotiations, technology stack rationalization, AI workflow integration, and implementation oversight — executed alongside your team, not handed off to them. Typically follows the Assessment.

  • Target-state architecture blueprint
  • Vendor consolidation & contract renegotiation
  • Technology migration planning
  • AI workflow design and integration
  • SOP development and governance documentation
  • Embedded implementation oversight
03
Tier III · Ongoing · Retainer
Ongoing Strategic Oversight

Retained fractional COO/CTO coverage — strategy, vendor governance, technology planning, AI roadmap, and operational accountability. Available as the firm grows, with full context and no handoffs. No re-onboarding, no starting over.

  • Monthly executive strategy sessions
  • Vendor governance & renewal oversight
  • Technology & AI roadmap management
  • On-call operational leadership access
  • Quarterly performance reviews
  • Ongoing SOP and governance maintenance
How it works

Assess. Architect. Govern.

01

Assess

Map the current state — vendor stack, technology infrastructure, workflows, controls, and governance. Produces a clear, prioritized blueprint for what needs to change and why.

02

Architect

Execute the blueprint. Redesign the vendor stack, renegotiate contracts, modernize workflows, and build the infrastructure for where the firm is going — not where it's been.

03

Govern

Stay in the room as the firm scales. Manage vendor performance, oversee renewals, and ensure the operating model holds under growth. Full context, no handoffs.

Get started

The right starting point
is the Assessment.

Fixed-fee, 2–3 weeks, and designed to produce a clear blueprint with no obligation beyond it. Most clients recover the cost in vendor savings alone.
