Services — IT Strategy

Strategy without the sales pitch.

Independent technology advice. No vendor kickbacks. No agenda other than what's right for your business.

The problem.

Most businesses don't have a technology strategy — they have a collection of tools bought at different times for different reasons, held together by workarounds and institutional knowledge that lives in one person's head.

When it comes time to make infrastructure decisions — cloud vs on-premise, which platform to standardise on, whether to upgrade or replace — most businesses don't have anyone to ask who isn't trying to sell them something. Vendors pitch their own products. Resellers earn commissions. Consultants recommend what they know.

AMRIX provides independent advice. No vendor kickbacks, no preferred platforms with referral arrangements, no incentive to recommend anything other than what actually fits your business goals and budget.

What's included.

  • Technology environment audit — documenting what you have, how it's configured, and what it costs
  • Gap analysis and risk identification
  • Technology roadmap development (12–36 month horizon) aligned to business objectives
  • Vendor and product evaluations — independent assessment of shortlisted options
  • Cloud vs on-premise analysis with total cost of ownership modelling
  • Procurement guidance and vendor negotiation support
  • Infrastructure planning for growth, scaling, or office relocations
  • Integration planning and data flow mapping across systems
  • Risk assessment and business continuity planning
  • Implementation oversight and project management for approved initiatives

Who it's for.

Businesses making significant infrastructure decisions who want a second opinion from someone who knows the field — not someone who profits from the outcome. Businesses that have outgrown their current setup and don't know what to move to. Businesses that have been pitched a solution and want an honest assessment before committing.

This service is also valuable for businesses that don't have internal IT leadership and need someone to act as a part-time CTO or technology advisor — reviewing proposals, sitting in vendor meetings, and providing technically informed guidance at the decision-making table.

How we deliver.

We start by understanding the business — revenue model, team structure, growth plans, risk tolerance — before we look at technology. Every recommendation is tied to a business outcome, not a feature list. Deliverables include documented audit findings, written roadmap recommendations, and vendor evaluation summaries with clear rationale.
