From the founder

## Most builders, manufacturers, and industrial firms never hire a CIO. I sit in that seat.

Owners and CFOs hire people who’ve done the job, not another MSP pitch.

Founder & CEO

### Jeff Dennis

I’m Jeff Dennis, founder and CEO of TRNSFRM. I also sit in the fractional CIO seat for a ~$150M Ohio construction company: the empty chair mid-size builders, manufacturers, and industrial firms leave while they chase government work that demands NIST and CMMC.

I started TRNSFRM in 2008 because ticket-shop MSPs weren’t built for that job. You need someone who owns systems, cyber, and the bid, then a senior engineer who can show you where you stand in 45 minutes.

The IT Resilience Framework™

## From IT Support to IT Resilience

Most IT providers start with tools and support. **TRNSFRM starts with risk.** We assess where you are, close the gaps that matter, turn the plan into an ongoing program, and then help operate it.

2. 01 / Assess
   ### Know the Gap
   Don't start with tools. Start with risk.
   We evaluate your technology environment, cybersecurity posture, compliance obligations, business risks, and operational requirements, then document a baseline: where you are today, where the meaningful gaps are, and which risks deserve attention first.
   Typical outputs
   - Gap Assessment
   - Executive Risk Snapshot
   - Risk Register
   - Security posture baseline
   - Compliance readiness
   - Technology and operational findings
   The baseline for everything that follows
3. 02 / Remediate
   ### Close the Gap
   Turn findings into action.
   Findings become a prioritized, practical roadmap: what needs immediate attention, what comes next, what can be accepted or transferred, what belongs on the long-term roadmap, plus budget, resources, and ownership. Then we execute alongside your team or existing providers.
   Common work
   - Identity and MFA
   - Microsoft 365 security
   - Endpoint protection
   - Backup and disaster recovery
   - Network segmentation
   - Vulnerability remediation
   - Policies and procedures
   - Compliance controls
   Prioritized Remediation Roadmap + 30/60/90-Day Plan
4. 03 / Operate
   ### Run the Program
   Security and compliance aren't projects.
   Once critical gaps are closed, remediation becomes an ongoing operating program connecting IT operations, cybersecurity, compliance, and governance. Controls operate. Policies are followed. Evidence is collected. Systems are monitored.
   What runs every day
   - Vulnerabilities addressed
   - Backups tested
   - Users and identities managed
   - Evidence collected
   - Systems monitored
   - Leadership understands risk
   An operating IT Resilience Program, not a pile of products
5. 04 / Improve
   ### Stay Resilient
   Your business changes. Your risk changes with it.
   Technology, employees, threats, vendors, and regulations change. The business grows. We continuously review the environment and help leadership measure, review, prioritize, improve, and reassess.
   Ongoing cadence
   - Executive technology reviews
   - vCIO and vCISO guidance
   - Risk and compliance reviews
   - Vulnerability management
   - Roadmap and budget planning
   - Policy review and strategic planning
   Feeds the next Assess cycle

**Improve loops back into Assess.** Measure, review, prioritize, improve, reassess. A continuous lifecycle, not a one-time project.

Reduce Risk. Prove Compliance. Protect Operations. Continuously Improve.

How We Fit

## One Framework. Three Ways to Operate.

Every organization is different. TRNSFRM can own the entire technology function or strengthen the team and providers you already have.

Fully Managed

### TRNSFRM Runs IT

TRNSFRM becomes the accountable partner for day-to-day IT operations, cybersecurity, governance, compliance support, and strategic technology planning.

- Organizations without internal IT
- Businesses replacing a traditional MSP
- Leaders who want one accountable partner

Explore Managed IT (https://trnsfrm.tech/managed-it)

Co-Managed

### Your IT Team + TRNSFRM

Your internal IT team stays in place. We add cybersecurity, governance, engineering, automation, strategic leadership, tools, process, and extra capacity. We strengthen internal IT, not replace it.

- Internal IT teams stretched thin
- Teams needing security depth
- Leaders wanting process and tooling

Explore Co-Managed IT (https://trnsfrm.tech/services/co-managed-it)

Governance + Security

### Your MSP + TRNSFRM

Keep your existing MSP. TRNSFRM provides the cybersecurity, governance, compliance, risk management, remediation roadmap, and vCISO layer above traditional IT support.

- You don't have to fire your MSP
- Regulated or audit-bound businesses
- Boards asking for risk visibility

Explore Cybersecurity & Compliance (https://trnsfrm.tech/cybersecurity)

You don't have to fire your MSP to work with TRNSFRM.
