Fractional technical leadership can transform your organization.

Our fractional Chief Technology Officers (CTOs) are part-time, outsourced executives who help nonprofit organizations bridge their technology leadership gap by developing strategies, optimizing systems, and ensuring effective digital transformation – ALL without the cost of a full-time executive.

How our CTOs help:

Comprehensive Discovery and In-Depth Needs Assessment

Understanding your mission and values is key to grasping your unique technology needs. By analyzing your current systems, we identify gaps and areas for improvement. Our goal is to align your technology with your objectives, ensuring it fully supports your mission.

Strategic Technology Roadmapping and Expert IT Management

Collaborating closely with your team, we develop a strategic plan and technology roadmap tailored to your vision. This guides your IT investments and ensures progress toward long-term goals, while ongoing support keeps your initiatives on track for sustainable growth.

Tailored Platform Selection and Comprehensive Vendor Management

With a deep understanding of your organization’s mission and goals, we identify vendors that match your immediate needs and long-term vision. From research through implementation, we ensure you have the right technology partners to support your growth.

Complete Website Audit and Strategic Web Optimization

Through a thorough website audit, we assess functionality, user experience, and alignment with your brand goals. Actionable recommendations are provided to improve design, content, and technical performance, ensuring your site is user-friendly, efficient, and integrated with other digital systems.

Robust Cybersecurity Solutions and Comprehensive Data Policy Development

To safeguard your organization, we assess current security protocols and identify vulnerabilities. Tailored cybersecurity policies are then created to protect your data and ensure compliance, building a security-aware culture within your team.

Full-Spectrum Digital Transformation Planning and Team Training

Digital transformation strategies are developed to address both technology and operational shifts. Tailored training equips your staff to fully leverage new systems, empowering them to maximize the benefits of your technology investments.

Hofbauer Consulting created the perfect web system for us, our chapters, volunteers and donors. They provide thoughtful and creative solutions for all our needs. As our organization grows, we continue to work with Hofbauer Consulting to bring out the best version of our vision.

We are so glad we put our e-Learning Portal together in time to engage K-12 educators asynchronously during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hofbauer Consulting built an on-brand, easy-to-use system that has allowed us to expand our geographic reach and in-depth with clients who otherwise may not have had the resources to work with us. We couldn’t have done it without them!

Hofbauer Consulting built a web system to our exacting standards and requirements. Since our launch, they have provided non-stop care and attention for our evolving needs. They are always available to answer our questions and offer training for small or large concerns. We would highly recommend this proficient, creative, flexible, and considerate team!

We cannot thank our partners, Hofbauer Consulting, enough for the critical and valuable work that has been conducted to help us bring our Virtual Milk and Cookies (MAC) Children’s Program to life. We truly could not have done this without their amazing partnership and support!

Hofbauer Consulting built us a beautiful new system and continues to be a wonderful partner. They are very efficient, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. Their understanding of our requests and needs has empowered our organization to put our best foot forward online.

As an environmental non-profit, Virginia Green Travel Alliance was struggling to make our “off-the-shelf” system work for our programs and users. Hofbauer Consulting took the time to understand our needs and helped us come up with user-friendly solutions.

Hofbauer Consulting created a user-friendly website and were excellent thought partners in helping us organize the site with clear sections, embedded interactive forms, and language accessibility

I never felt any pressure or fake sales pitch from Hofbauer Consulting, just a sense of honesty and integrity. From the start, they made the whole process of building our platform easy and easy to manage. Not only did they train us to manage the platform ourselves, they took the time to really get to know our organization and helped tell our story and reach our unique audiences.

Hofbauer Consulting was the team I needed when I started my small foundation and has been there all along the way – showing artists and partners the growth we’ve achieved in two short years.
