Assess Your Strategic Posture
For many SMBs, technology spend is the second largest line item on the P&L, yet it is often the least understood. Without an independent lens, your "strategy" is frequently just a collection of various vendor roadmaps.
This audit is designed to give you Clarity. It moves beyond features to reveal the structural integrity of your IT environment.
Why this matters for SMBs:
- Reveal Hidden Bias: Identify where commissions or partner quotas might be driving your tech choices.
- Reclaim Leverage: Understand if you truly own your data or if you are paying a "Complexity Tax" for tools you can't easily leave.
