Business systems review
Understand what you have, where the greatest gains are available and what deserves attention first. The result is a clear, practical set of priorities.

Business technology advisory · Brisbane and Australia
Make technology decisions with a clear, independent view.
A sound technology decision can begin with a simple conversation and an independent, experienced view.
I work directly with owners, founders and small teams to understand what is getting in the way, explain the options and find a practical next step that suits the organisation and its budget.
Independent technology advice
Work out what matters before choosing the answer.
The right answer may be a new system, a better connection between tools, a simpler use of what you already have or a carefully timed investment.
Software, hardware & vendor assessment
Compare products, cloud services, equipment, quotations and supplier proposals against your actual needs, constraints and likely whole-of-life costs.
Idea & solution planning
Clarify the people, problem, value, risks and smallest useful first version. An early idea can become a practical plan, prototype or well-scoped delivery brief.
Workflow, integration & modernisation
Reduce repeated work, connect information more effectively and decide what to retain, improve, replace or retire in manageable stages.
A straightforward engagement
Enough structure to make progress.
Start with a conversation about what you are trying to achieve and what is getting in the way.
I’ll consider your systems, people, suppliers, risks, constraints and budget, then set out sensible options and trade-offs in plain language. I can stay involved as an adviser, architect or reviewer, help with implementation, or hand a clear direction to your team or supplier.
Because I work independently and keep my overheads low, the engagement can be a focused consultation, a clearly scoped review or ongoing support while it remains useful.
Experience you can draw on
Advice informed by delivery.
For more than 35 years I have worked across software, systems, architecture, integration, operations and support, from early decisions through implementation and everyday use.
01
Business platforms
OneFlow
I designed a configurable foundation for workflows, reporting, analytics, accounting and tailored applications, allowing new business needs to reuse dependable common capabilities.
02
Organisational analytics
TMS.Global
I helped turn complex psychometric and organisational needs into a cloud platform, working across architecture, data, reporting and practical delivery decisions.
03
Field operations
Aeropower systems
I developed mobile and cloud tools connecting inspections, GPS, imagery and field assessment with usable asset information and reporting.
Start with the decision in front of you
What technology decision is on your mind?
Send me the imperfect version. A few sentences about the situation and the outcome you want are enough to begin.
