What We Offer
Most businesses that have been growing for a few years end up with a technology stack that nobody fully understands. Tools were added as problems arose. Integrations were bodged together. The original developer left. Someone is still manually exporting spreadsheets to bridge two systems that should talk to each other.
A technology audit gives you a clear, honest picture of where you are — what tools you use, how they connect (or don't), where the risks are, and what you should actually prioritise fixing. It is not a sales pitch for a larger project. It is an independent assessment that gives you the information to make good decisions.
Every audit delivers four outputs: a full stack inventory (every tool, licence, cost and owner), a risk register (security, compliance, single points of failure, vendor lock-in), an integration map (what connects to what, what should connect but doesn't), and a prioritised roadmap with honest effort and impact estimates.

What Our Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a technology audit include?
Our technology audit delivers four outputs: a full stack inventory (every tool, licence, cost and owner); a risk register covering security, compliance, vendor dependencies and technical debt; an integration map showing how your systems connect and where the gaps are; and a prioritised roadmap with effort and impact estimates. Every audit also includes a debrief session.
How long does a technology audit take?
Our standard technology audit is delivered in two to four weeks, depending on the complexity of your stack and the availability of your team for interviews. We keep the scope fixed so the timeline is predictable.
Who is a technology audit for?
Technology audits are most useful for founder-led businesses that have been growing for two or more years and have accumulated a stack nobody fully understands; businesses preparing for fundraising or acquisition due diligence; companies that have experienced a security incident or data breach; and businesses planning a significant technology change who want an independent baseline first.
What is the technology audit checklist?
We assess across several dimensions: software and SaaS tools (licences, costs, utilisation, renewal dates); security configuration (access controls, MFA, password management, data encryption); integrations (what connects to what, data flows, manual bridges); infrastructure (hosting, backups, monitoring, disaster recovery); compliance (GDPR, data handling, third-party data sharing); and people and process (who owns what, documentation, single points of failure).
Is the audit confidential?
Yes. All findings are delivered directly to you. We sign NDAs before starting and handle all credentials and documentation securely. Nothing leaves the engagement.
Do you only audit technology, or operations too?
Our technology audit focuses on your digital tools and systems. If you also want an operational process review, that is covered under our Operations & Business Support or Fractional CTO services. Many clients do both — the technology audit often surfaces process problems that benefit from a broader operational review.
