How I can help.

Three ways in. Each builds on almost thirty years on every side of the table — support, development, consulting, presales, security, and building a 50-partner cloud ecosystem through the Broadcom–VMware transition.

01

Trusted advisor

Technology & vendors

I know the technology and the vendors behind it — how they build, price and partner. That helps you ask the right questions, compare like with like, and choose a direction you won’t regret.

Typical situations

  • Choosing between platforms or approaches
  • Rethinking a platform — e.g. hypervisor, backup or cloud strategy
  • Making sense of licensing and pricing models
  • Preparing for a vendor or partner meeting

What you get

  • A clear recommendation with the trade-offs spelled out
  • Requirements and evaluation criteria you can reuse
  • A plain-language view of licensing and cost drivers
  • Someone on your side who speaks vendor

02

Problem solving

When the project is stuck

Some problems don’t fit the textbook: legacy, security restrictions, compliance, conflicting vendor answers. I dig to the root cause and find a way through that works inside your constraints.

Typical situations

  • A project stalled on a technical issue
  • Constraints that rule out the obvious answer
  • Vendors pointing at each other
  • Infrastructure that grew faster than its documentation

What you get

  • Root-cause analysis in plain language
  • A workable path within your constraints
  • Hands-on help where it speeds things up
  • Documentation your team can own

03

Facilitation

Expert groups, one direction

Network, security, applications, business, vendors — every group is right from where they stand. I help them share a language, see the dependencies and reach decisions that stick.

Typical situations

  • Expert groups that don’t share a language
  • Decisions that keep bouncing between teams
  • Coordinating vendors and partners
  • Kick-offs and workshops that need to land somewhere

What you get

  • Workshops that end in decisions
  • A shared overview of dependencies and risks
  • Clear ownership and next steps
  • Momentum between meetings

Recommendations

I had the pleasure of working with Theis during a two-month virtualization project. The customer had many specialized security restrictions. Theis used his technical skills to create a solution that could perform inside these restrictions. If you need deep technical virtualization skills or have a Gordian Knot that needs to be untangled, then you should definitely give him a call.

Bjørn Studsgaard Voss

Theis must be the best and most solution-oriented person I have had the pleasure of working with in the world of IT. Always completes the task at hand with a special eye for details. Theis has excellent communication skills, whether it is with customers in high positions, technical staff or colleagues. These professional skills combined with his wide range of Microsoft educations make Theis a superb IT consultant. I give Theis my warmest recommendation.
