  1. Office of the CIO/CTO
  2. If you're a CIO/CTO responsible for implementing a technology strategy or transformation, you probably don't have the time or resources to establish a business operations function that provides you with real-time insights into the overall status of your CIO organization. Whether you need a helping hand to "run the business" or require assistance in recruiting the perfect candidate, our Office of the CIO/CTO function (OCIO) is tailor-made to meet your needs. We'll take care of setting up and managing the OCIO while supporting you in the interview and recruitment process.

Where we mostly see challenges in delivering programmes and projects is where you either do not have the right capabilities and competencies to manage projects end to end or you do not have a process that accounts for the challenges that come with operating an AGILE technology delivery or product team within a annual planning (waterfall) business. We can help bridge the gap with both resources,  frameworks  and access to tools that will enable you to have common understanding of projects status, issues and risks along the project and product lifecycle and also the resources who can scale up your delivery teams at a time you need it most.
