Technology strategy and delivery

Get the most from what you spend on technology.

For the owners, CFOs and IT leaders carrying decisions they cannot afford to get wrong. We make the recommendation on strategy, portfolio and spend — and we build what the decision requires.

Energy, financial services, construction, commodity trading. Alberta based, working where the decisions are made.

You agree the cost before the work starts.

The people who scope it are the people who deliver it.

Work we have done

We have built
this before.

Strategy and roadmaps, estate remediation, integration and analytics, and the fractional seat — across energy, financial services, construction and commodity trading.

Energy services

AI strategy and roadmap

The board was pushing, employees were asking, and licences had been bought before anyone settled what they were for. We assessed more than twenty opportunities and ranked them on difficulty and the AI capability each actually required.

The client used the roadmap to decide what to pursue, how to scope it, and what their policy should say. Advisory only — we built none of it.

Energy services and construction

SharePoint audit for AI readiness

Security and information risk were the concern, and there was no information architecture to implement against. We reviewed the estate and found a significant number of high-risk issues.

We designed the information architecture and recommended closing the high-risk gaps before going near a rollout, rather than fixing it on the way.

Commodity trading and risk

Data integration and analytics hub

Data had sprawled across systems and what analysis was possible ran on figures that were already out of date. We built the integration layer and the analytics capability on top of it, implemented on Posit.

The hard part was never the analysis — it was getting the platform into their environment and standing up the connection to each source.

Financial services

Fractional AI advisor

A six-month term advising on which tools to use, where to implement them, and how to enable people on them.

The role did not exist at the company before.

What to expect

Priced up front.
Done by the people
you met.

  • No surprises on the invoice

    A fixed price where the work is defined, an agreed rate and a ceiling where it is not. Either way, you know before it starts.

  • Weeks, not quarters

    The first piece of work is short enough that what it finds still matters when it lands.

  • Senior people, start to finish

    Whoever you meet first is whoever does the work.

  • Everything is yours

    Code, data, definitions and documentation, written so your team can run it without us.

  • Straight answers

    Sometimes the answer is a simple rule, an off-the-shelf product, or not this year. You will hear it.

Start with a 45-minute briefing.

No pitch. Bring the decision you are stuck on and we will tell you what we would do about it, including when that is nothing.
