A vCIO (virtual Chief Information Officer) gives you senior technology leadership without a full-time executive salary. TRNSFRM builds your 12-month technology roadmap and IT budget, reviews vendors and contracts, plans projects, helps with cyber insurance questionnaires and reports to leadership in business terms. vCIO is included with our managed IT agreements and is also available on its own for Cleveland area companies.
A vCIO focuses on technology strategy, budgets and projects. A vCISO focuses on security and compliance: risk assessments, policies, incident response planning and frameworks like CMMC, HIPAA and ISO 27001. Many Cleveland companies need both, and TRNSFRM provides both on the same team, so your roadmap and your security program do not compete for the same budget.
