Frequently Asked Questions
Do you serve businesses outside downtown Houston?
Yes. I work with businesses across the Greater Houston area including The Woodlands, Sugar Land, Katy, Pearland, League City, Conroe, and Cypress — as well as fully remote engagements nationwide.
How is a Houston fractional CTO different from a local MSP?
An MSP handles day-to-day IT operations — tickets, support, monitoring. A fractional CTO sets strategy, manages your MSP, aligns technology with your business goals, and holds vendors accountable. Most Houston SMBs need both.
What industries do you serve in Houston?
Houston-area healthcare practices, property management companies, professional services firms, construction/engineering companies, and energy-adjacent businesses. I understand the Houston market.
Can you help with Houston-area vendor negotiations?
Yes. I have relationships with local and national IT vendors, internet providers, telecom, cloud, and software vendors. I negotiate on your behalf.
What does a Houston fractional CTO engagement cost?
Fixed monthly pricing based on company size and scope. Typical Houston SMB engagements range from $2,500–$6,500/month. Contact me for a custom quote.
