Technical Due Diligence

Technology Strategy Consulting

Technical playbook
Technology integration
RFP analysis
Vendor selection and interviews
Business model transformation
Developing innovative products and services
Responding to disruptive market forces
CXO suite technical briefing
Internal technology evaluations

More than ever before, businesses need a trusted partner

In the age of “disrupt or be disrupted”, businesses need help with strategic, technology, and transformation challenges. We bring years of technology execution, academic experience, entrepreneurial mindset, and venture capital investment background to the table to provide our clients a field-tested blueprint.

Our clients are industry leaders typically going through a technology transformation and adoption period in need of honest, unvarnished and insightful recommendations and insights along the way. We explore the fundamental challenges of our clients to help them develop critical thought leadership in order to yield reliable results. When it comes to vendor evaluation and selection, we translate vendor claims into plain English and break things down into apples-to-apples comparisons.

We live and breathe cloud technologies, CRM, CMS and other SaaS solutions, state of the art AI solutions, data visualization and more.

Example Case Study

Adapting to consumer 2.0

Our client, a Fortune 10 company, was at a crossroads in identifying the organization's true goals. Given its dominant market position, the organization was facing the proverbial "innovator's dilemma."

A blueprint to avoid technology disruptions

We spent weeks to develop a keen understanding of unique challenges and opportunities our client was facing before making any recommendations. Once we developed a solid understanding of the landscape, we provided our client with a detailed technical blueprint including detailed timelines and milestones which saved the organization millions of dollars and months of effort.
