Enterprise technology leadership for manufacturers and acquisition-driven businesses — now available on a fractional basis.
Most mid-market manufacturers don't need another full-time executive. They need someone who can sit between the boardroom and the systems — translating business goals into a technology strategy that actually advances them, and who has already done the hard things: the ERP migration that can't slip, the AI pilot that has to pay off, the integration that ties a fragmented business together.
That's the idea behind Nine Five Eight Technology: senior technology leadership that starts with where the business is headed and works backward to the systems — scoped to your situation, without the overhead of a permanent C-suite hire. With 20+ years of experience, we've led large-scale digital transformations and aligned technology strategy with real business growth — consistently in decentralized, acquisition-heavy environments where systems rarely start out tidy.
The core skill is alignment: making sure every technology decision maps to a business goal. That takes someone who can work at both altitudes most advisors can't span at once — the executive level, where strategy, operating models, AI governance, budgets, and board-ready reporting live, and the hands-on technical level, where ERP, CRM, and integration decisions actually get made and live or die.
