Capabilities & Services
IT & Management Consulting
To be competitive, the IT department has to be treated as more than a cost center. If it’s not performing optimally – why? Are initiatives failing to materialize? Are they failing to meet expectations? Are they crashing long before the planned sunset? Ricardo’s role is to assess these issues as a thoughtful, experienced leader and usher organizations to the next level.
IT Project Management
When a business has goals, the IT department must be on board to help them succeed. What happens if they aren't aligned in their communication? As an IT project manager, Ricardo helps to deconstruct business goals into the achievable outcomes that IT can provide. He also bridges the communication gap between non-technical and technical stakeholders so everyone works towards common success.

Business Analysis
Every business is unique. When evaluating commercial software, it’s often found to be obtainable but overly-generic for an organization’s specific needs. Custom software can be crafted to fit unique needs perfectly, but these projects are high risk. This is where Ricardo steps in. With a background in business administration and IT, he effectively speaks both languages and helps clients find the ideal solution that keeps their business running optimally.

Leader as a Service
If key IT personnel were suddenly indisposed, would your business be able to stay afloat? Are other changes in the business straining leadership’s capacity? Working alongside his clients, Ricardo can step in for a period of time to ensure teams continue to thrive during challenging periods.

The R.M approach: working alongside trusted IT departments to lead change.
Understanding business needs
Leveraging multi-domain expertise, Ricardo offers management and IT consulting that allows the entire company to function optimally. By facilitating collaboration between technical and non-technical groups, challenges are resolved through effective communication and mutual understanding.
Eliminating barriers
Misunderstandings between IT departments and businesses cause barriers to go up. Further complicating the matter, businesses often speak a different language than IT — and vice versa — creating more issues and potential pitfalls. Ricardo acts as the mediator, translating between the two while delivering the superior service necessary for cohesive growth.
Delivering sustainable solutions
Sustainability extends beyond being “green.” As a company grows or contracts, IT solutions must remain effective and still align with budget, culture, compliance, and new processes. Ricardo prioritizes genuine sustainability, delivering solutions built to endure.
Operating with integrity
Integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody is watching. Ricardo will never push a product that isn’t the best fit. His commitment is unwavering — to provide optimal service that effectively solves client's needs for the long term. Ricardo is not affiliated with any other vendor, and will never recommend an unsuitable product or service merely to receive a kickback or commission.
