Real results from our fractional CIO/CTO engagements across Australian businesses.
Unified Commerce Transformation for a Sydney Retailer
A 14-store fashion retailer with $45M revenue was running a 9-year-old POS system with no real-time inventory visibility. Online and in-store data lived in separate systems. A previous $220k modernisation attempt by an external agency had stalled completely, and the board had lost confidence in technology investments.

Technology Governance Overhaul for a Growing Professional Services Firm
A Melbourne-based professional services firm with 280 staff across 6 offices had grown rapidly through acquisition. Each office ran its own IT setup with different tools, vendors, and security practices. Shadow IT was rampant, with over 40 unapproved SaaS subscriptions discovered during the initial audit. Two minor security incidents in the previous quarter had the board demanding action.

Platform Rescue and Scale-Up for a Sydney SaaS Company
A B2B SaaS company with $8M ARR lost their CTO unexpectedly, leaving a 12-person engineering team without technical leadership.

Investors were asking hard questions about technical debt and platform reliability.

ERP Migration Rescue for a Victorian Manufacturer
A family-owned manufacturer in regional Victoria with $62M revenue had spent $400k on an ERP migration that stalled 18 months in. The implementation partner had overpromised on timelines and underestimated the complexity of integrating with existing shop-floor systems. Staff were running parallel processes in the old and new systems, creating data integrity issues and significant operational overhead.
