Beyond the Tool: Expert Guidance for Your Most Critical Projects
Software is powerful. Expert partnership is transformative.
Ardan is designed to give you a world-class project framework. But some challenges require more than a framework—they require a seasoned guide. As the architect of Ardan and a 20-year veteran of enterprise-scale product launches, I offer a limited number of consulting engagements to help businesses navigate their most crucial inflection points. When failure is not an option, I'm your guide.
I Partner Best With...
The Growth-Stage Founder/CTO
You've found product-market fit and just raised a Series B/C. Now you need to scale your engineering team from 10 to 50+ without losing the speed and culture that got you here.
The Innovative Business Leader
You know you need to adopt AI to stay competitive, but you don't know where to start. You need a practical, ROI-focused roadmap to go from a vague idea to a successful first implementation.
The SMB Owner with a Mission-Critical Project
You're about to undertake a complex IT project like a full CRM migration or a new e-commerce platform launch. The success of your business depends on getting it right the first time.
A Practical, Phased Approach
1. Discovery & Diagnosis
We start with a deep-dive conversation to understand your goals, challenges, and the unique context of your business. No preconceived notions, just listening.
2. Strategic Roadmap
Leveraging the Ardan framework, we co-create a clear, actionable roadmap. This isn't a theoretical document; it's a practical plan that defines success, mitigates risks, and outlines every critical step.
3. Hands-On Implementation
I work alongside you and your team in the trenches. This can include running planning sessions, coaching team leads, managing stakeholders, and removing roadblocks to ensure we build momentum.
4. Empowerment & Handoff
My goal is to make myself obsolete. I work to embed these processes and capabilities within your team, leaving you with a stronger, more self-sufficient organization long after our engagement ends.
How I Can Help
A 6-week engagement to implement the lightweight processes, communication protocols, and metrics needed to scale your engineering organization effectively.
A focused workshop and strategy session that results in a clear, prioritized plan for your first high-impact AI project, from vendor selection to a proof-of-concept.
Fractional leadership for your most important IT projects. I act as your interim Head of Program Management to ensure your project is delivered on time and on budget.
