- enter 2.0 — Practical AI, governed data, dashboards, automation and information systems for organisations that need to make better decisions.

For foundations, associations, SMEs and non-profit sector teams that need executive-level judgement on technology, data, security, suppliers and continuity, but cannot justify a full-time in-house IT leadership role.

## Fractional senior IT leadership

The service provides an IT leadership function for organisations that need judgement, follow-up and technology coordination, but lack the scale to bring that role in-house.

## What can remain after the work

- Regular liaison with senior management to turn business needs into IT decisions.
- An annual plan for systems, data, security, suppliers, continuity and priorities.
- Review of purchases, contracts, licences, domains, access, backups and supplier dependency.
- Support for internal or external teams so that technical projects do not go without direction.

## Technical and operational proof

- Combined experience in management, architecture, data, BI, operational security, automation and deployments.
- A great deal of accumulated work with non-profit sector organisations, foundations and projects with limited technical resources.
- Ability to talk to senior management, administration, social teams and technical suppliers without losing operational detail.
