What the alternatives cost
A management consultancy
$15,000+ per engagement
You get a deck and a roadmap. Real value when the strategy is unclear, but nobody builds the thing, and the plan assumes a team you do not have.
Hiring a technology lead
$120,000+ per year
The right answer eventually. At thirty people it is a large fixed cost for a part-time role, and the search alone runs months.
Another SaaS subscription
$50 to $400 / seat / mo
The reflex, and how firms end up with four tools each holding a third of the picture. Software does not integrate itself.
Fractional leadership plus build
$1,500 to $5,000 / mo; builds fixed-price from $3,000
Senior direction month to month, and the systems actually get built. You can stop when the problem is solved.
The systems behindevery paid engagement.
Troy’s corporate and B2B firms are usually past the point where another tool helps — what they need is senior direction and one system that finally shows the whole operation at once.
Fractional CTO
Senior technology leadership, without the full-time hire.
- Ongoing monthly advisory access
- Vendor and software evaluations
- Roadmap and modernization guidance
Custom Business Software
One place to run your business, built around how you work.
- Real-time operational visibility
- Centralized knowledge and SOPs
- Reduced errors from manual tracking
What else professional and B2B firms use us for.
Questions from professional and B2B firms.
Can you integrate the systems our Troy office already uses?
Yes — connecting existing tools and eliminating duplicate data entry is exactly what our Workflow Automation work does.
We are an accounting or professional firm. Is client data safe in what you build?
It shapes the design. Client records stay in the systems you already run, with access scoped per person, credentials never sit in the browser, and anything client-facing is built assuming scrutiny. Bring your specific obligations to the first conversation.
Do you compete with our existing software vendors?
No, and we usually argue for keeping what works. Most Troy engagements start by mapping what you pay for; the common finding is three overlapping tools with no connection between them. Removing a subscription is a good outcome.
How is this different from the consultancies we already hear from?
They hand you a strategy; we build the thing. There is a plan, but it is short, and the point is the system that exists at the end of the month. If you need senior direction without a full-time hire, that is the fractional retainer.
Bring the messy version of the problem. The proposal is free.
Twenty-five minutes up I-75 and we can look at your stack in person. No pitch deck, just an honest read on what is worth fixing first and what is fine as it is.
