Strategic Advisory & Fractional Leadership
You need senior technology and operations leadership. Someone thinking about target operating model, architecture, AI readiness, governance. But you can't justify permanent roles for a full-time CTO and senior team.
Most firms waste months on strategies that never get implemented. We design operating models and then build them. Now we work as your fractional leadership team, embedded in your operations.
We design your technology strategy and target operating model. We make architectural decisions that scale. We assess AI readiness and set up governance frameworks. The strategic foundation that determines everything else.
How we work
Annual retainer aligned to your strategic capacity needs, not hourly billing. Some clients engage us from day one. Others transition to strategic advisory after we've built their core infrastructure. We'll provide transparent pricing after an initial discovery call.
We've operated platforms managing billions across 14 countries.
Production-grade systems we've lived with for years. Strategic experience you can't justify hiring full-time.
How we work
Fixed-price based on scope: number of sources, data complexity, reporting requirements. You get the data warehouse, automated ingestion, BI layer, and complete documentation. We'll provide detailed pricing after discovery.
Data Warehouse Build-outs
Your data lives across property managers, fund accountants, ESG platforms, and financial systems. Quarterly reporting takes 2 weeks of manual work. You can't answer board questions without chasing 5 people.
A unified data warehouse fixes this. Quarterly reporting that takes weeks gets reduced to hours. Board questions get instant answers. All data in one place with automated ingestion. This is the foundation that makes AI and automation actually possible.
We design your data model and build the full implementation in your cloud environment (Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, or BigQuery). We connect all your source systems with automated feeds and quality validation. We document everything and train your team. Production-grade systems built to run for years, not POCs that get abandoned.
We've integrated almost every major real estate platform in Europe and North America.
We know what breaks, what scales, and how to make it reliable. Built for portfolios managing billions.
Bespoke Platform Build & AI Agents
Your operations don't fit into off-the-shelf tools. You're managing critical processes in spreadsheets and email. Spreadsheet-based processes are fragile and don't scale.
We build custom workflow platforms, analytics tools, and AI agents that eliminate manual work. We can also add AI capabilities to existing platforms as standalone projects. Purpose-built for your business, deployed in your infrastructure.
We build bespoke workflow and approval systems, deal management platforms, custom analytics dashboards. We integrate AI agents for document processing (tenancy schedules, leases, invoices), data validation, and workflow automation. Where AI genuinely eliminates manual work, not as a gimmick. We connect everything to your existing systems with automated data flows.
How we work
Fixed-price or capacity-based depending on scope. You get the platform deployed in your cloud, full source code access, complete documentation, and integration with existing systems. We'll provide detailed pricing after understanding your requirements.
We've built and operated bespoke platforms managing billions in AUM.
Production systems we've lived with for years, not proof-of-concepts we handed off. Built to last, not to impress.
Managed Data Operations
After we build your infrastructure, we can run the daily and monthly operations. Data ingestion, validation, quality checks. You can't justify full-time data engineers and analysts, but you need the warehouse running reliably.
What we do
Data Ingestion
We manage monthly and quarterly cycles, chase late submissions, handle exceptions, and keep your data flowing.
AI Validation
Automated extraction and validation that catches inconsistencies before they reach your warehouse.
Quality Checks
Human review before anything goes live. We verify edge cases and ensure accuracy.
Your Approval
You maintain control. We prepare, you approve, then we load. Nothing goes live without your sign-off.
How It Works
Data Arrives
Daily/monthly/quarterly from your sources
We Validate
AI extraction + human review
You Approve
Review and confirm quality
Goes Live
Loaded to your warehouse
Start small. Prove value. Scale fast.
Start with a focused project. If it works, expand into other areas. If not, you keep full operational control of everything we built.
Strategy First
We provide fractional CTO/CDO capacity on focused engagements. We'll address strategic priorities such as target operating model, architecture, AI readiness, and governance. Clear roadmap ready for execution by Tidebridge or your chosen partner.
Focused Build
We design and build your data warehouse or bespoke platform, train your team, then transition full ownership. You run operations internally.
Build → Operate
We build your data infrastructure, then manage daily operations via an annual retainer. Our most popular engagement model.
Full Partnership
We become your ongoing fractional back-office team. Strategic advisory, infrastructure builds, managed operations, and ongoing feature development.
Pricing & Timeline
Initial discovery calls are free. We provide transparent fixed-price proposals before you commit to anything. Timeline and cost depend on your specific requirements. We'll be honest about what's realistic for your situation.
Let's talk
No pressure, no sales pitch. Just a conversation about your data challenges. We can meet at your place, ours, or on Teams.
