How I can help

I don't sell technology. I help you buy it right.

Most technology advice comes from vendors who profit from what they sell you. I don't sell the systems I'd be recommending — my only incentive is that you make the right call.

Technology Health Check

When you're not sure where your technology currently stands or where to start, a health check gives you a clear picture of the situation.

Investment Prioritization

When there are more things worth doing than money or time to do them, I help you work out what to take on first and what can safely wait.

Ongoing Advisory

When technology questions keep coming up, it helps to have someone to ask — without turning every question into a separate project.

Feasibility Study

When you're considering a bigger purchase and want to know before committing whether it will actually work in your production — and whether it makes financial sense.

Projects

When you have a larger project on the drawing board or underway, I act as an independent technical advisor along the way — from planning through to delivery.

Financing & Grants

When you're applying for financing or public funding for a project, I help prepare the application — from the technical content and reasoning to the financial modelling of the project.

Product Development

When you're developing a new product, device, software, service, or production solution, I'm available both as an advisor and for hands-on development work — from mechanics to software.

Proof of Concept

When you want to try new technology on a small scale before a bigger decision, I help you plan the trial so its results can be trusted.

Quote Review

When you've got a quote in hand and want an independent view of what you're getting and how the price compares to the alternatives.
