STRATEGY LOGISTICS
Common Consulting Questions
Do we need to be on a Managed IT package to use your consulting services?
While our managed clients receive ongoing Virtual CIO support automatically, we also offer standalone strategic consulting and IT audits for businesses that need high-level direction before committing to a monthly partnership.
What exactly does a Virtual CIO (vCIO) do?
A vCIO sits on your side of the table to make high-level tech decisions. Instead of just fixing broken computers, we plan your IT budget, ensure compliance, negotiate with software vendors, and design the architecture your business needs to scale safely.
Will you force us to buy all new equipment?
Absolutely not. Our goal is to maximize your current investments. We only recommend hardware or software upgrades if your current setup is an active security risk or is actively losing you money in lost productivity.
How long does an initial IT strategy audit take?
Depending on the size of your organization, our discovery phase usually takes between 3 to 5 business days. We operate silently in the background using non-invasive tools to ensure your daily operations aren’t disrupted.
Do you assist with industry-specific compliance?
Yes. We map your technology against local and international frameworks (like POPIA and basic ISO standards) to ensure your data handling is secure, legally sound, and ready for institutional audits.
