Someone accountable for the whole stack
Tools accumulate. Nobody owns the seams between them. I take responsibility for the operational layer so the systems your business runs on have a name attached.
Inside the build
This is the least glamorous service on the list and the one that changes the most. Uptime, access, vendors, documentation, incidents and spend, reviewed on a calendar instead of when something breaks.
- One owner — A single point of accountability across every platform and vendor you run.
- Fewer surprises — Monitoring and a maintenance calendar instead of firefighting.
- Documented systems — Access, architecture and procedures written down and kept current.
- Sane spend — Licences audited, duplicate tools retired, contracts reviewed at renewal.
What is included
Everything here is delivered, documented and handed over. Nothing is left depending on my availability.
Systems inventory
Every platform, owner, cost and renewal date in one register.
Monitoring and alerting
Uptime and performance checks on every critical service, escalating to a person.
Access control
Least-privilege reviews, clean joiner and leaver processes, MFA everywhere.
Vendor and licence management
Renewals tracked, seats reclaimed, duplicate tools removed.
Incident response
A defined path, a written postmortem, and a fix that prevents the repeat.
Monthly operations report
What changed, what broke, what it cost and what is next.
What companies describe, and what gets built
Left is the symptom as it is usually reported. Right is the actual fix.
Nobody can say who has admin access to what.
An access register, quarterly reviews and an offboarding checklist that revokes everything in one pass.
Outages are discovered by customers.
Monitoring on every critical service with escalation that reaches a human before your clients do.
Three tools do the same job because nobody tracked it.
A licence audit, which usually pays for a good part of the retainer in the first month.
The operating cadence
What actually arrives, and when.
Systems inventory, access register and a risk list you can act on immediately.
Monitoring live on every critical service, plus the first licence audit.
Operations report: uptime, incidents, spend, what changed and what is next.
Access review, restore drill and one structural improvement, agreed in advance.

Frequently asked
About Technical Operations Management specifically.
Usually not. Most companies of this size need consistent ownership rather than a full-time salary, and a structured retainer covers it at a fraction of the cost.
Often. I am frequently the layer between an internal team and the platforms they did not choose or do not have time to own.
The audit alone surfaces quick wins in the first fortnight, usually around access hygiene and duplicate spend.
Three months. Anything shorter is reactive support rather than operations management.
