A CIO at the table — without the salary.
Most businesses don't need a full-time technology executive. They need executive-grade technology decisions: what to buy, what to retire, what the auditors and insurers will ask for, and what next year should cost. That's what ARX Consulting delivers — from a named advisor, in plain English.
vCIO Retainer
Monthly strategy, technology roadmap and budget planning, quarterly business reviews, procurement guidance. The advisor relationship that turns IT from a cost center into a plan.
Fractional CIO / CTO
Executive technology leadership for organizations that need a seat at the leadership table filled — board reporting, vendor negotiations, team direction — without a $250K hire.
Infrastructure & Security Review — $225/hr
The entry engagement for organizations of 25+ seats. A structured review of your infrastructure, security posture, and spend, producing a written findings-and-roadmap document your leadership can act on — with us or without us.
Compliance Advisory
Cyber-insurance readiness, HIPAA, vendor risk. We translate the questionnaire into a checklist, and the checklist into a completed file.
How consulting connects
Every engagement ends with a roadmap. If the roadmap calls for managed infrastructure, ARX Managed executes it. If it calls for automation, ARX AI builds it. One partner, accountable for the whole picture.
Frequently asked questions
Is the review just a sales pitch for your managed services? +
It's a paid engagement with a written deliverable — that's the opposite of a pitch. Some reviews become managed contracts. Others become standing advisory relationships. Both are wins for us; the document is a win for you either way.
Can you work with our existing IT provider? +
Yes. Advisory is provider-neutral — sometimes the roadmap's first recommendation is a better contract with the vendor you already have.
