Services
Stability-First Infrastructure.
Assess your current state, govern your cloud, migrate what needs to move, and prove you can recover. Plus senior leadership, MSP oversight, and deal-stage infrastructure evaluation. Fixed-scope projects.

vSphere Stabilization & Drift Control
Your vSphere environment drifted from its baseline and nobody noticed. I map the dependencies, score the risk, and hand you a runbook so your team can keep it from drifting again.
$2,500.00
- ▸Environment map + dependency topology
- ▸vSphere config baseline (Drift Checklist)
- ▸Health score with prioritized remediation
- ▸Configuration audit report
- ▸Runbook for ongoing drift detection

Azure Guardrails & Governance
Azure spending tripled and nobody can explain why. I set up the guardrails: policy baselines, RBAC, cost alerts, and a landing zone your team can build on without creating the next mess.
$2,500.00
- ▸Management group hierarchy and subscription topology
- ▸Azure Policy baselines (CIS, NIST, custom)
- ▸RBAC role design and Entra ID integration
- ▸Cost Management budgets and anomaly alerts
- ▸Landing zone accelerator deployment
- ▸Tagging taxonomy and enforcement
- ▸Resource naming convention automation
- ▸Governance documentation and runbooks

Reversible Migration Engineering
Migrations fail when someone skips the dependency map and hopes for the best. I move workloads in phased waves with a rollback path at every stage. If something breaks, I roll back. No drama.
$2,500.00
- ▸Pre-migration network and dependency mapping
- ▸Phased "wave" execution planning
- ▸Reversible "parallel run" architecture
- ▸Explicit rollback runbooks
- ▸Cutover validation

VMware Exit Planning
Broadcom changed the math on virtualization. I run the licensing audit, inventory the workloads, and hand you a migration roadmap with costs, timelines, and rollback options before you commit to anything.
$2,500.00
- ▸Licensing cost analysis (current vs. projected)
- ▸Workload inventory and dependency mapping
- ▸Target platform evaluation (Azure, Nutanix, Proxmox)
- ▸Phased migration roadmap with rollback gates
- ▸Cost modeling for stay vs. optimize vs. exit

Proof of Recovery Architecture
Your backups run every night. Have you ever restored from one? I run the restore test, document the RTO and RPO, and hand you the proof that your recovery plan actually works.
$2,000.00
- ▸Formal backup environment audit
- ▸Documentation of RTO and RPO metrics
- ▸Executed restore tests (sandbox)
- ▸Disaster recovery runbook creation
- ▸Immutable storage verification

Compliance Readiness Assessment
Gap analysis against HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI DSS, or CJIS technical safeguard requirements. Evidence-based findings with remediation priorities, not checkbox theater.
$4,000.00
- ▸Technical safeguard gap analysis
- ▸Evidence collection and documentation
- ▸Remediation roadmap with priority scoring
- ▸Policy and procedure review
- ▸Audit preparation package
Fractional CTO / vCIO
You need senior infrastructure leadership but not a full-time hire. I did this for 10 years at a 21-site healthcare organization. Roadmap, vendors, compliance, budget. Your team gets stronger, not more dependent.
$5,000.00
- ▸Technology roadmap and capital planning
- ▸Vendor evaluation and contract review
- ▸Security posture and compliance oversight
- ▸IT budget analysis and optimization
- ▸Board-ready infrastructure reporting
- ▸Staff mentoring and team structure guidance
MSP Audit
Six years inside a cloud service provider showed me exactly how MSPs operate, what they track, and what they skip. I review your provider's delivery against contract and hand you a report with actual leverage.
$4,000.00
- ▸SLA compliance verification against contract terms
- ▸Ticket volume and resolution time analysis
- ▸Backup and patching coverage audit
- ▸Security baseline gap assessment
- ▸Vendor cost benchmarking
- ▸Written findings report with renegotiation leverage
Technical Due Diligence
You're acquiring a company, investing in one, or inheriting someone else's infrastructure. I tell you what's actually there, what it will cost to integrate, and whether the technical debt is a rounding error or a dealbreaker.
$6,000.00
- ▸Infrastructure inventory and dependency mapping
- ▸Technical debt quantification
- ▸Security and compliance risk scoring
- ▸Integration complexity assessment
- ▸Operational cost projection (12-month)
- ▸Executive summary with go/no-go framework
