When you need IT consultancy

You've grown past a small team. You have five WhatsApp groups doing what a CRM should do, a shared Excel file everyone overwrites, and a laptop under the manager's desk that everyone panics about backing up. Or you're planning to add a branch, apply for a bank loan, meet ISO or NITA-U requirements, or professionalize before an investor visit. Any of these is the right moment.

What we help with

Vendor-neutral, practical, focused on outcomes.

  • Digital transformation roadmap
  • Software selection (POS, CRM, ERP, HR, HMIS, SMS)
  • IT infrastructure & network design
  • Cybersecurity assessment & policy
  • Data protection compliance (Uganda's DPPA)
  • Cloud migration (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean)
  • Business continuity & backup strategy
  • Vendor management & procurement advice
  • NITA-U compliance for government-adjacent work

How we work

We start with a listening session — not a sales pitch. We map your current tools, people, and pain points, then produce a short written recommendation with options, costs, and a realistic timeline. You decide what to do next. If implementation is needed, we can execute in-house or coordinate with your existing vendors.

Cybersecurity for Ugandan SMBs

Cyber attacks in Uganda are rising fast — email compromise, ransomware, and mobile-money fraud. Most SMBs have no defenses. We assess your exposure, close the biggest gaps (2FA, backups, patching, staff awareness), and put a simple incident response plan in place — practical protection you can actually maintain.

Data Protection Act compliance

Uganda's Data Protection and Privacy Act requires most businesses handling personal data to register with the PDPO, appoint a Data Protection Officer, and follow specific handling rules. We help you get compliant without over-engineering.

Pricing

Consultancy is billed by scope. A one-off assessment starts at UGX 1,500,000. Monthly virtual CIO retainer for growing companies starts at UGX 2,500,000/month. Bespoke transformation projects are quoted after a free scoping call.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you tied to specific vendors?
No. We're vendor-neutral. We recommend what fits your problem, not what pays us the biggest commission.
Can you help us become NITA-U compliant?
Yes. We advise on NITA-U requirements for government-adjacent work and can help you achieve compliance.
What size businesses do you work with?
Typically 10–500 staff. Smaller than that, self-service tools are usually enough. Bigger than that, you need a full-time CIO.
Do you do cybersecurity training for staff?
Yes. Practical, non-technical training that reduces the biggest risk in any organization: human error.
How is the assessment delivered?
Written report + a 60-minute presentation to your leadership team, with all questions answered live.
Do we have to buy from you afterwards?
No. If we recommend a product, you can procure it however you want — through us or independently.
