Your organization may be exploring the addition of a chief information officer or chief digital officer, yet not ready to commit to a full-time role. Perhaps you are searching for a chief technology officer or information security officer, but do not want to commit to a long-term engagement.
Our consultants and partners offer short-term contracts and part-time services to meet the needs of a diverse set of clients. Many organizations can benefit from a commitment for a fixed period of a few days a month without needing to lock down a full-time position.
Virtual CIO, CTO, CDO, & CISO
Your business can benefit from the expertise of our global experience running mission-critical operations and projects for dozens of Fortune 500 companies. With a seat at the table, you can obtain top talent to represent your organization, help you build out capabilities, supervise operations, or help you to search for a permanent leader to fill this role.
Check out the following scenarios to understand the flexibility of this common consultant service:
-
An organization had an unexpected vacancy in their Chief Information Officer role. They needed to have someone with experience running their internal systems to step in immediately while finding a permanent replacement, a process that would take too much time to have the role unfulfilled.
CCC stepped in to perform the CIO duties for six months, serving on-site a few days a month and virtually as needed to sustain operations and to assist with the search for a new candidate. We provided inputs to the executive leadership on job qualifications and also assisted with interviews to select a new and effective CIO.
-
A growing company was expanding its reach with a diverse and hybrid workforce, conducting operations from multiple locations. Their board of directors was worried about exposure of data breaches and loss of control from the historical single office location.
We deployed a combination of compliance software and conducted audits to expose vulnerabilities. Our consultants worked with the client's team to remediate deficiencies into hardened assets.
Today, we've relaxed from a project approach and deliver two days a month of dedicated monitoring, assessment, and strategy to keep this well-oiled machine working effectively within the CIO's organization, and we provide quarterly in-person reports to the board of directors as a virtual CISO.

A regional manufacturer has excellent skills in producing their core products, but their CEO realized that they needed to explore emerging technologies to remain competitive in the marketplace.
Not yet large enough to hire a full-time chief digital officer, the firm selected CCC to perform this function virtually, providing a highly experienced insight to guide their exploration of technology to drive efficiency and innovation into their business processes.
With the skills of CCC at their leadership table, the CEO, CFO, and CIO were able to augment their strategies to reduce operational overheads and streamline workflows to optimize their growth engine in the market.

An emerging services-based company was recently acquired by a private equity firm looking to create an operating model and technology platform to enable rapid onboarding of new acquisitions into a standardized set of procedures and systems.
CCC was first engaged to understand the business requirements and carefully articulate the performance metrics of concern for profitability and adoption, leading to the design of a target operating model and technology architecture to support these objectives. The project concluded with the delivery of this platform, in conjunction with other service providers.
Subsequent to this jump-starting project, we continue to chair the firm's Architectural Review Board (ARB) for several days a month to assess changes, explore emerging technologies, and ensure compliance with the overall design strategy.
