The tech gap, filled. strategyAIdeliveryleadershipexecutionUXWordPress

Tech consulting, CTO advisory, AI automation, digital presence, and the execution your team can't do today.

Who we work with: B2B services, regulated sectors, and product-led SMEs, typically 20 to 500 people. Names stay off the page; most files sit under NDA.

Problems we are brought in to fix

What we find on day one.

The gaps that cost most are rarely the ones on anyone's roadmap. If none of this sounds familiar, we are probably the wrong fit.

Symptom · leadership
No CTO. Tech decisions made on gut, not evidence.

The CEO is the de-facto tech lead. Vendors propose; no one pushes back. Architecture drifts until the cost of changing it is higher than the cost of living with it.

Symptom · AI
AI pilots that never reach production.

A proof of concept runs for three months. Then it stalls: no ownership, no integration plan, no budget sign-off. The vendor moves on. The pilot report sits in a shared drive.

Symptom · systems
Vendor lock-in and undocumented systems you cannot touch.

The person who built it left. The SaaS tool owns the data. The integration is held together by one contractor. You can't migrate, can't scale, can't negotiate.

Symptom · digital
Digital presence that costs budget but converts nothing.

The site looks fine. SEO is “being handled.” Ads run. Nobody knows the actual cost per qualified lead because the analytics are broken and nobody fixed them.

The gap we fill

Not a consultancy that only presents. Not a dev shop that only builds.

01

Strategy plus execution, same team

Most consultants hand over a slide deck. Most dev shops wait for a spec. We do both: we frame the decision, then we build the thing. The strategist and the engineer are the same invoice.

02

Senior throughout, no handoffs

The person who scopes the engagement stays for delivery. No junior team picks it up after kickoff. Every engagement runs at partner level. One point of accountability, not a project manager relaying messages to an offshore sprint team.

03

We push back when it matters

If the request would create lock-in, waste budget, or ship a problem you'll pay to undo in eighteen months, we say so before the contract is signed. Our job is the outcome, not the billable hours. Clients who want a vendor to execute without question are the wrong fit.

Proof

Outcomes, not logo walls.

Names stay off the page under NDA. Numbers come from real files, rounded and anonymised. Full case write-ups available after an intro call.

Manufacturing operations and technology
01Manufacturing · CTO Advisory
€2.1Msaved

Six-figure vendor contract cancelled after a two-week tech audit found it was unnecessary.

A 200-person manufacturer was about to sign a €2.1M ERP contract. The CEO had no technical advisor. The vendor had shaped the entire evaluation.

Two-week audit. Found that 70% of the required functionality was already in their existing stack, misconfigured. Contract not signed.

Retail warehouse and operations
02Retail · AI Automation
−74%manual ops

Order processing automated end-to-end. Headcount redeployed, not reduced.

A European retailer running order management on a combination of spreadsheets, email threads, and a part-time coordinator. Volume had doubled; the process had not changed.

AI workflow built on existing systems: order intake, supplier routing, status updates, and exception handling. No new platforms, no rip-and-replace.

Investor portal rebuilt. Content team ships without a developer in the loop.

Bilingual investor site on a brittle page builder: slow server response, staging that never matched live, and editors too scared to touch it.

Editorial WordPress, bilingual IA, role-based investor portal, performance budget agreed before build started.

04B2B SaaS
3.1×pipeline

Marketing site realigned to product story. Sales stopped apologising for it.

Site had drifted from what the product actually does. CMS locked out non-technical owners. Pipeline-qualified meetings were flat.

Design system, docs portal, WordPress with guarded templates and clear content ownership per team.

Full write-up after intro call
Logistics warehouse and operations
05Logistics · Infrastructure
−40%support tickets

Three portals consolidated to one. Single roadmap replaced three competing backlogs.

Duplicate support tickets with no single owner for authentication. Each portal had its own backlog and no agreed escalation path.

Architecture review, staged consolidation, single sign-on pattern agreed and documented before a line of code changed.

Core offerings

Five lines of work.
One accountable team.

Pick one line or several. The same senior team scopes it, delivers it, and owns the outcome. Strategy without execution is a slide deck. Execution without strategy is expensive guesswork.

01 · Tech strategy & CTO advisory
audit.md
roadmap
decisions
delivery

Fractional CTO and technical leadership without the headcount.

Architecture reviews, vendor selection, tech roadmaps, and board-level reporting. We act as your technical co-founder — on call when you need judgment, off the books when you don't.

02 · AI automation & integration

AI that ships, not just pilots.

Workflow automation, LLM integration, data pipelines, and AI tools embedded into your actual operations. Strategy through to production — not a proof of concept that stalls after the demo.

ScopeOps · Marketing · Sales
OutputProduction-ready
03 · Website & WordPress

A site that converts and a stack you can own.

Discovery, UX, WordPress build, performance, and launch runbook. Custom blocks, staging parity, and handover docs that don't lock you to us. If a screen doesn't move a metric, it doesn't ship.

04 · SEO & digital marketing

Search and content that compounds.

Technical SEO, content strategy, on-page optimisation, and analytics that actually tell you what's working. Built to rank in search and in AI-generated answers — not to look good in a monthly report.

05 · Tech infrastructure & integrations

Systems that scale without surprises.

Cloud infrastructure, CRM and third-party integrations, security reviews, and documentation. We consolidate fragile stacks, eliminate single points of failure, and leave you with a system you can hand to internal IT.

Process

Four phases. No theatre.

Enough structure to ship. Not enough to justify a week of workshop slides that nobody reopens after the kick-off call.

PHASE · 01Week 0–2

Discover

Stakeholder interviews, stack review, analytics audit, risk mapping. We write down what is actually broken — in numbers, not adjectives.

auditinterviewsrisk-map
PHASE · 02Week 2–3

Define

Scope brief, success metrics, decision register. Nothing starts until a named buyer signs the brief. No brief, no build.

briefmetricssign-off
PHASE · 03Week 3–7

Design & build

Strategy into delivery — same team, no handoffs. Weekly review with the people who scoped it, not a project manager reading status notes.

PHASE · 04Week 7–11+

Deliver & tune

Launch checklist, handover docs you can act on, then post-launch tuning on real data. You own the output from day one.

Who this is for

Three types of clients. One team.

EU companies from 10 to 500 people. Different gaps, same standard of work. If you only need a ticket queue to point at, we are the wrong shape.

CEO in a strategy meeting
CEOs & founders — no CTO on payroll

  • [✓]Tech decisions have been made by gut or by whoever quoted last.
  • [✓]You are scaling and the current stack is becoming the bottleneck.
  • [✓]You want someone who will tell you the wrong call before you make it.
Enterprise team in a tech strategy session
Enterprises — skills & strategy gaps

Specialist depth your internal team does not have today.

AI automation, infrastructure, WordPress, and tech consulting for defined projects where you need senior judgment — not a body to fill a seat.

  • [✓]AI or automation initiative that needs a real delivery plan, not a vendor pitch.
  • [✓]Tech infrastructure review ahead of a raise, merger, or compliance audit.
  • [✓]Specialist skills — WordPress, SEO, data pipelines — not worth a full-time hire.
  • [✓]You want a second opinion before signing a six-figure contract with a vendor.
Digital marketing and analytics dashboard
Companies outsourcing digital

Web, SEO, and AI workflows — owned, not managed.

We run your entire digital presence: site, search, content, and AI workflow integration. One accountable partner instead of four disconnected suppliers.

  • [✓]Website, SEO, and digital presence handled end-to-end without a fragmented agency stack.
  • [✓]AI workflows integrated into marketing, sales, or operations — not a chatbot bolted on.
  • [✓]Content and search strategy built to rank, convert, and compound over time.
  • [✓]One accountable team for web, analytics, and the campaigns that drive it.
