SERVICES
Technical oversight services
Start with a fixed-scope check when you need a clear decision. Keep me involved as Technical Operating Partner when the technical risk is ongoing.
Before you sign or continue
Project & Vendor Control Check
An independent review of a software proposal, estimate, project plan, or technical direction before you sign, continue, or escalate.
Starting point
From €750
Prices exclude VAT.
Who it's for
- Owners or managers about to sign a software vendor proposal
- Companies already in a project that feels slow, unclear, or expensive
- Teams that need an independent read on an estimate, scope, architecture, or delivery plan
- Founders who want a second opinion before scaling a prototype
Problems I solve
- The vendor proposal is hard to evaluate
- The project is dragging and nobody can explain the real risk
- You do not know whether the estimate, architecture, or delivery plan makes sense
- The company is becoming dependent on one supplier or one person
- AI or automation claims sound attractive, but the practical value is unclear
What I do
- 1Review the proposal, estimate, scope, architecture assumptions, and project plan
- 2Identify missing decisions, lock-in risk, delivery risk, and acceptance criteria gaps
- 3Check AI or automation claims only where they affect cost, quality, or ownership
- 4Write a short memo with what looks reasonable, what is risky, and what to ask next
What I need (typical)
- Vendor proposal, estimate, project plan, or relevant technical notes
- Current business goal and project context
- One call with the owner, manager, or founder responsible for the decision
- Architecture notes, screenshots, or access only when needed for the scope
What you get
- 2-4 page written memo
- What looks reasonable
- What looks risky
- Missing decisions and acceptance criteria gaps
- Questions to ask the vendor before continuing
- Recommendation: sign, clarify, renegotiate, stop, or review deeper
Ongoing owner-side technical oversight
Technical Operating Partner
Ongoing owner-side technical oversight for companies without a senior internal technical owner.
I represent your side technically, so management is not dependent only on what vendors or developers say.
Controlled automation is part of the work only where it makes sense: after the workflow, owner, inputs, quality criteria, and failure cases are clear.
Starting point
From €2,500/month
Prices exclude VAT.
Who it's for
- Owners and CEOs without senior internal technical leadership
- Companies dependent on external software vendors
- Firms with custom software, internal tools, CRM/ERP integrations, portals, dashboards, or automation
- Teams where developers exist, but no one owns architecture, delivery discipline, or long-term technical risk
Problems I solve
- Vendor proposals and technical decisions are hard to evaluate
- Software projects keep slipping
- Developers optimize local tasks, but no one owns the whole system
- The company is accumulating hidden technical debt
What I do
- 1Represent your side technically in key vendor and project conversations
- 2Review proposals, estimates, roadmap choices, and architecture decisions
- 3Maintain a simple risk register and decision log
- 4Define acceptance criteria and quality gates
- 5Translate technical trade-offs into business consequences
What I need (typical)
- Access to vendor proposals, project plans, roadmap, and relevant technical artifacts
- A management contact who can make or escalate decisions
- Regular project or vendor touchpoints
- Enough visibility to compare technical claims with delivery reality
What you get
- Monthly technical risk register
- Decision log with key technical trade-offs
- Vendor/proposal review notes
- Meeting notes and next technical actions
- Acceptance criteria and quality gates for active work
- Roadmap and estimate sanity checks
- Monthly management summary: what is risky, what is reasonable, what to decide next
Before a prototype becomes a product
Prototype Readiness Review
A technical review for AI-built, no-code, low-code, or fast-developed apps before real users depend on them. The demo works; I check whether it can safely become a product.
Starting point
From €900
Prices exclude VAT.
Who it's for
- Founders who built an MVP with AI coding tools, no-code, or low-code platforms
- Small teams shipping a fast-built internal or customer-facing app
- Companies that built a demo or research tool and now want to use it operationally
- Non-technical founders who need a technical expert on their side
Problems I solve
- A demo can work and still be unsafe as a product
- The demo works, but nobody knows if the architecture is maintainable
- The app was built fast, but security and data handling were not reviewed
- AI-generated code was accepted without proper understanding
- The product depends on fragile prompts, hidden assumptions, or unstable integrations
- The team does not know whether to continue, stabilize, refactor, or rebuild
What I do
- 1Review architecture, maintainability, database structure, and API design
- 2Check security, data exposure, authentication, and access control
- 3Assess deployment setup, error handling, monitoring, and testability
- 4Look for vendor/platform lock-in and AI-generated code risk
- 5Review user experience and customer-perceived quality
What I need (typical)
- Repository or app access where relevant
- A short product walkthrough
- Deployment details and current hosting setup
- Known risks, customer commitments, and next launch milestone
What you get
- Short technical risk memo
- Production-readiness checklist
- Blocking risks ranked by severity
- Security, data, deployment, and maintainability notes
- Recommendation: continue, stabilize, refactor, or rebuild
- 30-60 day stabilization plan
