Fractional IT leadership for businesses without an IT director
Most small businesses have someone to fix computers, but nobody to decide what to buy, which vendor to trust, or whether the business is actually secure. A fractional IT director gives you senior judgment on a predictable monthly retainer.
Book a free consultationWhat the retainer covers
- A technology roadmap and annual budget, reviewed every quarter.
- Vendor management: reviewing quotes, contracts and renewals for internet, phones, software and managed service providers.
- Security oversight: tracking the risks from your assessment until they are closed.
- A second opinion before you sign anything technical.
- Acting as your IT point of contact for insurers, auditors and larger customers.
Who it suits
- Businesses of roughly 10 to 150 people with an outside IT provider or an internal generalist.
- Owners who want someone on their side when talking to vendors.
- Organizations facing a compliance requirement that needs a named responsible person.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as managed IT?
No. A managed service provider runs day to day support. A fractional IT director sets direction, holds providers accountable and makes sure the money is well spent. Many clients use both.
