Independent and Strategic

CIO Studio have a team of experienced Core Advisors who provide serious capacity and firepower with a strategic focus.

Experience when you need it

Capacity and Capability

Whether you need help with a specific technology-related challenge or project, or just some advice as you grow, we're available on either a project or ongoing basis.

You only pay for what you need – either on Time and Materials or with a fixed level of service agreed up front for a specific project.

And you're not just getting one person; our full team of strategic professionals provides expertise not available elsewhere.

How we work

We typically provide highly-skilled, C-level expertise on either a fractional, scalable, monthly subscription basis, or on a project basis (fixed or Time and Materials).

Our team are all seasoned business professionals with a broad range of skills and capabilities. With a range of specialisms, you get a whole team of digital leaders.

Our Agile approach

We work in an Agile way as this is the model that is most likely to produce successful outcomes that meet your needs.

We see the following as key to successful Agile projects:

Engagement with you and your people: this is something we’re doing together, not something we’re doing “to” your people.

An outcomes focus: we care about getting outcomes that are meaningful to you. As we progress, these outcomes might change.

Collaboration over contract: while we do have an agreement of course, our focus is on genuine partnership and collaborating to get good outcomes. If either of us feel we have to refer back to the contract wording, we’ve failed.

Responding to change: while we will follow a plan, it’s likely your circumstances will change - even just in small ways. We'll actively solicit and meet your changing priorities and work to ensure a well-managed but flexible process.

Your investment

The cost is essentially a product of the work vs timeframe – our Agile approach provides maximum flexibility as your needs change over time.

We also don’t believe in locking clients into lengthy contracts. We’ll discuss the cost and schedule of projects, but you can cancel the engagement at any stage if you don’t feel you’re receiving value.
