// The problem

It’s not just you. IT projects run late when nobody owns the whole thing.

Office moves, migrations and new systems touch five vendors at once. Here’s where they usually go sideways.

01

Vendors pointing at each other

The phone company blames the internet company, who blames the software vendor. You’re in the middle.

02

Timelines you can’t see

The project was due in March. Nobody can tell you where it actually stands.

03

Cutovers that spill into Monday

Last time you moved, nobody could print for a week.

04

Advice from people selling something

Every recommendation comes with a product attached.

Heard on first calls

  • “This project was supposed to be done in March.”
  • “The phone company blames the internet company, who blames the software vendor.”
  • “Last time we moved, nobody could print for a week.”
  • “I don’t know what to buy, and everyone I ask is selling something.”

// The real issue

The problem isn’t the project. It’s that five vendors each own a piece.

Every vendor delivers their part and calls it done. The gaps between them belong to no one, so they become yours.

ConsultIT puts one person on the whole project: the plan, every vendor call, the weekend cutover and the weeks after go-live.

// So where do you start?

Red to green, in three steps.

First — Plan

We plan it

Scope, budget, timeline and what to buy, from people who don’t sell the product.

Next — Run

We run it

One owner manages every vendor and sends you a weekly update in plain English, the good and the bad.

After — Go-live

We stay until it works

We cut over on the weekend, test before your team arrives, and stay after go-live until it’s right.

// What's included

Inside ConsultIT

Make technology a strategic advantage for your business. Our consulting is not theoretical — it is grounded in hands-on experience managing complex IT environments since 1999, and every recommendation is practical, actionable, and tied to business outcomes.

That includes the cloud. We plan and execute migrations across Microsoft Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, Snowflake, and Databricks — then keep operating what we moved: monitored, patched, cost-tuned, and reported. The cloud is not a destination you arrive at; it is an environment you operate.

Because we combine consulting with managed operations, we know what actually works in production — and we can execute what we recommend.

Strategic evaluation & planning

Assessments of people, process, and technology; PE portfolio evaluations; risk and compliance assessments; and IT architecture mapping aligned to business goals.

Interim & fractional IT leadership

Manager, director, and C-suite fractional roles — a vCIO or interim leader who fills the void for high-stakes initiatives or ongoing direction.

Cloud migration & modernization

Environment evaluation, vendor selection, workload mapping, and phased execution across Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, Snowflake, and Databricks — with minimal operational disruption.

Cloud operations & cost optimization

Cloud security, backup with geographic redundancy, spending insights, budget alerts, and hybrid designs that keep workloads where they perform best.

Data & analytics

Data strategy, sourcing and ETL, data lake and warehouse builds, and Power BI visualization that turns operational data into decisions.

IT process automation

Service desk automation, cloud resource management, security operations, data integration, and DevOps / CI-CD pipelines.

Vendor & technology optimization

Contract and license assessment, pricing analysis, technology sourcing, and unified billing — most clients find savings in the first review.

M&A technology support

The full lifecycle: financial discovery, technology due diligence, integration planning and execution, training, and transition.

// FAQ

Strategic IT Consulting questions, answered

How is consulting different from managed services?

Consulting focuses on the decisions, planning, and direction; managed services handle ongoing operations. DivergeIT combines both perspectives — our advice is informed by actually running environments like yours.

What is fractional IT leadership?

An experienced interim or part-time leader — at manager, director, or executive level — who steps in to provide project execution or strategic direction without a full-time hire.

How long does a cloud migration take?

Mid-sized organizational migrations typically complete over weeks to a few months depending on scope. We assess first, set clear milestones, and migrate in phases to avoid disruption.

Will the cloud save us money?

Usually — by eliminating hardware refresh cycles, reducing IT overhead, and converting capital expense to predictable monthly cost. We model the numbers for your environment before recommending a move.

Do we still need backups in the cloud?

Yes. Microsoft and Google protect their infrastructure, not your data from accidental deletion, ransomware, or malicious insiders. Cloud-to-cloud backup is part of every DivergeIT cloud design.

What does M&A technology support include?

The full M&A lifecycle: initial discovery and financial assessment, technology due diligence, integration planning and execution, and transition support.

How do we get started?

The best starting point is a conversation. We assess your current state, understand your goals, and recommend the right engagement — from a one-time assessment to ongoing fractional leadership.
