Projects delivered.
Promises kept.

Structured IT project delivery, independent audits, and Fractional IT Director engagement — bringing enterprise delivery rigour to businesses that need it without the headcount.

What we deliver

Project governance with
enterprise rigour.

Every engagement is scoped, planned, and delivered to a documented methodology. No scope creep, no surprises at invoice.

Project Management

Structured delivery with clear RACI, milestones, and sign-off at every stage. Managed to budget and timeline — reported transparently throughout.

Infrastructure Migrations

VMware-to-Hyper-V, on-prem-to-Azure, server consolidation, and office relocations — migration projects where the plan matches the outcome.

Fractional IT Director

Rob Knapp available to your board — attending meetings, holding vendors to account, and providing credible technical leadership without a full-time hire.

IT Audits & Assessments

Independent assessment of your current environment — what's working, what's at risk, and what a credible roadmap looks like. No commercial agenda beyond an honest picture.

Cloud Readiness

Pre-migration assessment, architecture design, and cost modelling. We tell you what moving to the cloud actually involves before you commit.

Partner Delivery

We work alongside trusted regional partners for day-to-day delivery — extending reach without diluting quality or accountability.

Delivery methodology

How every project
is run.

1

Scoping

Define the outcome, the boundary, the dependencies, and the risks — before anything is agreed. Documented and signed off.

2

Planning

Detailed project plan with RACI, milestones, communication cadence, and escalation path. No ambiguity about who owns what.

3

Delivery

Execution against plan with regular reporting. Change requests are formal — not absorbed silently and charged later.

4

Handover & review

Full documentation, knowledge transfer, and a post-project review. We want the next engagement, not to stay indispensable.

Fractional IT Director

Board-level technical leadership
without the headcount.

For IT Directors & technical teams

A senior technical peer when you need one.

  • Architecture review and design challenge
  • Vendor management and contract negotiation support
  • Second opinion on complex infrastructure decisions
  • Delivery oversight for high-stakes projects
For MDs & business leaders

Technical credibility at board level.

  • Attends board meetings as your technical voice
  • Translates IT risk into business language
  • Holds your IT provider accountable — including us
  • Helps you plan technology investment sensibly
