Independent of every vendor

Technology Selection & Gap Analysis

The major platforms and vendor tools are genuinely impressive, and frequently the wrong fit. We run an independent gap analysis against your operation: what fits, what to implement, what to skip, and the enabling work, sensors, IoT and data foundations, that would make a tool viable. Sometimes the honest answer is that the tool is not for you. We will say so, because we sell none of them.

Services include
  • Vendor & platform fit assessment
  • Implement, adapt or skip recommendations
  • Enabling work: IoT, sensors, data foundations
  • Independent second opinion on live proposals

Bringing me in is the easy part

Start with a conversation.

Every engagement starts with a short, no-obligation call. We work out whether there is a fit and what a sensible first step looks like. No procurement marathon, no big upfront commitment, and if it is not right for you, I will say so.

What to expect
  • A conversation, not a pitch
  • No obligation, either way
  • Plain answers, quickly
  • Start small, scale only if it works
