Who We Work With
Commercial Businesses
Our core business clients are small and midsized compaines under ~250 employees and below ~$75M annual revenue range, large enough that technology mistakes are costly, but often too lean to justify a full-time CIO or CTO.
When a company already has a CIO, we often serve as a second set of eyes: providing independent perspective, bridging project gaps, or acting as a sounding board outside of internal operations.
Federal Contractors
We also partner with defense and health contractors supporting federal programs. Our role is to help them sharpen proposals, spot risks early, and deliver with confidence under audit and compliance pressure.
Clarity at a fair rate. Senior-level advice, no surprises.
When you hire Fulcrum Vector, you get senior judgment without junior overhead. No sales pitches. No hidden angles.
