Sound familiar?
When IT needs a plan, not another purchase
- IT has grown one purchase at a time, and nobody can say exactly what you pay for or why.
- A big change is coming, such as a new system, an office move or a merger, and there's no plan yet.
- Vendors point at each other whenever something breaks.
- Projects run late because nobody owns testing, cutover or training.
- You need senior IT advice, but not a full-time IT manager.

Why Vector
Advice from people who have delivered
Vector's founder has more than 20 years of IT experience leading testing and delivery for complex programs across banking, insurance, financial services and data migration.
Delivery experience
Our advice comes from running real programs, so plans account for testing, cutover and the people affected.
Plain English
We explain options, costs and trade-offs clearly, and put every recommendation in writing.
Tested before it's live
Changes are planned, tested and scheduled so updates don't turn into outages.
Works with your team
We work alongside your staff, your existing IT provider and your software vendors.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you only work with small businesses?
No. We work with medical practices, small and medium businesses and larger organisations. The approach is the same; the size of the plan and the team changes.
Can you work alongside our internal IT team or current provider?
Yes. Many engagements are about adding senior planning and delivery skills to an existing team rather than replacing anyone.
Can you provide ongoing IT advice rather than a one-off project?
Yes. Ongoing advisory, such as regular planning meetings and budget reviews, can run on its own or alongside one of our managed IT plans.
How are consulting projects priced?
We scope each project after an initial conversation and give you a written scope, timeline and price before any work starts.
