CTO as a Service
Our CTO as a service is primarily aimed at those without a dedicated CTO role within their organisation or similarly, for those simply seeking objective, industry expertise to compliment existing capability on those tough programmes, problems or strategic technology decisions.
Benefits of CTOaaS:
- Direct, honest assessment of your current context – we will be your Critical Friend to make the business change happen.
- Industry vertical(s) and public sector experience that can bring insights and knowledge with Security Clearance.
- Engagement across the full life of a business change program/project.
- Flexible deployment and transparent commercial options designed around your needs.
- Fully Independent and objective expertise.
NWT CTOaaS provides either a high-calibre multi-talented CT team or an individual CTO Consultant providing extensive experience and innovative thinking to help clients stay ahead of the technology curve and turn disruptions and challenges into strategic and operational advantages.
Whether they are developing strategy, leading a programme of work or a complete digital transformation, our Consultants always take time to fully understand the company’s culture, processes, skillsets, leadership and customers so they can shape a project in a way that wins the hearts and minds of every stakeholder. Our Consultants have real world experience that enables them and the client to make the right decisions at the right time based on relevant content. They can also draw on the wider expertise and resources of our strategic alliance partners, bringing together the collective team’s innovative thinking to deliver today’s digital imperatives.
The CTaaS is not based upon sales and marketing content, but on deep knowledge and experience of how successful change programmes are delivered. Working in partnership with your own internal team, we will help you create the necessary artefacts at the relevant stages of the programme whether that is the Business Case, Technology Strategy, Product Roadmap or Transition and Transformation Plan, we will be there to ensure you deliver.
