Technology Consulting for Organizations That Do Work That Matters
Systems that last.
For teams that outlast the hype.
We help nonprofits, NGOs, and lean startups untangle operations, cut software costs, and build technical infrastructure that non-technical teams can actually own and maintain.
The Map
Your actual order-to-cash flow, drawn out
Tool Audit
What you're paying for vs. what you actually use
Open Alternatives
Free tiers and self-hosted options that fit
Exit Criteria
You own it when we're done, that's the goal
How We Engage
Scoped, fixed-fee work with clear deliverables. You know exactly what you're getting before we begin and you can run it when we're done.
Technology Strategy
Most organizations accumulate technology reactively. A new tool for each problem, nobody owns the big picture. We start by drawing the map. The answer is usually obvious once you do.
Learn moreMigrations & Transitions
System migrations go over budget because the people running them don't understand the business. We do. We keep your project on track, your staff prepared, and your data intact.
Learn moreData & Impact
Funders want data. Boards want data. We help you build the infrastructure to capture, analyze, and report on what matters without a dedicated data team or a five-figure BI tool.
Learn moreTool Selection
We have no vendor relationships and no referral fees. We evaluate options against your actual needs, with a bias toward open source, self-hostable, and free-tier first.
Learn moreIT & Security Planning
Small organizations get hit hardest by attacks because they skip the basics. You don't need an enterprise program you need the right fundamentals, done properly and documented.
Learn moreFractional Tech Lead
Ongoing senior technology guidance without the full-time overhead. We work this way because flat is faster, fewer layers between the problem and the decision means better outcomes.

Boring Is a Feature
Tried-and-true technology with predictable failure modes. A system your program director can fix on a Tuesday without calling us is a success.

The Map Comes First
Before we touch a single tool, we draw the picture. Most clients have never seen their own operations from above. Once they do, the answer is often obvious and sometimes doesn't require us at all.
