Is this the right support for your business?
You need an independent view of an architecture, platform or supplier proposal before investing. A focused technical assessment can complement your existing IT provider.
What you receive
An assessment of the agreed technical scope, options with trade-offs, key risks and a prioritised recommendation that accounts for your budget and team.
Where we start
Bring the decision you need to make, proposed solutions and any constraints. We can scope a focused review, with further implementation or ongoing advice agreed separately.
How pricing is agreed
The systems involved, available documentation and depth of assessment determine the effort. A focused decision review and an ongoing advisory arrangement are priced against their agreed scope.
Working together locally
Based in the East Riding of Yorkshire, I work with businesses in Hull and across the East Riding. Remote sessions and on-site work can be agreed around the engagement. We confirm availability, travel and any on-site requirements when scoping the work.

What's included
Frequently asked questions
What do I receive from a technical review?
We agree the scope first. Outputs can include an assessment of the current architecture, options with trade-offs, a risk and technical debt register, and a prioritised roadmap. Recommendations account for your budget, team and existing systems.
Can you advise before we choose a supplier?
Yes. I can help clarify requirements, review proposed approaches and compare the implications of different options. The work can be a focused assessment or part of an ongoing advisory relationship.
What does technical consulting involve?
Technical consulting involves strategic assessment of your technology landscape, architecture reviews, stack evaluation, and roadmap development. I help you make informed decisions about technology investments and identify opportunities for improvement and cost savings.
How do you approach cloud migration projects?
I follow a structured approach: assessment of current infrastructure, identification of migration candidates, architecture design, risk mitigation planning, and phased execution. This minimises disruption while maximising the benefits of cloud adoption.
Do you provide ongoing technical advisory services?
Yes, I offer both project-based and ongoing advisory relationships. Based in the East Riding of Yorkshire, I work with organisations across the UK providing regular technical guidance, architecture reviews, and strategic advice to support their technology evolution.
