FAQs

What Makes Us Different
What does Transform Labs do, and how is a fractional CTO/CIO different from a consultant?
Transform Labs provides strategic and hands-on technology leadership to help organizations make smarter decisions, scale effectively, and align technology with business goals. Unlike traditional consultants, our fractional CTOs and CIOs embed directly with your team and are supported by an in-house production staff. This ensures that technology strategy is connected to real execution, not just recommendations.

Who We Help
What types of organizations benefit from your services?
We partner with startups, nonprofits, and small to mid-sized businesses across industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, retail, professional services, and more. Our advisors are particularly valuable for organizations without in-house technical leadership, those undergoing growth or pivots, or companies that need interim technology guidance to maintain momentum.

How We Work
What does an engagement look like, and how much does it cost?

Some clients engage with us for a few months, while others maintain long-term partnerships over several years. Monthly rates typically range from $2,500–$5,000, depending on the scope and level of involvement.

Values & Principles
-
We Work in the Best Interest of Our Clients
Sometimes, this means saying things a client doesn’t want to hear and asking them to make tough choices, but it is all done in the client's best interest.
-
We Communicate with Candor
We will communicate with candor. We don’t sugarcoat things. We deal with them head-on. We expect our clients to also be direct and frank with us.
-
We Work in the Best Interest of the Product
Sometimes, clients don’t know what they don’t know about creating a digital product. We act as advisors and utilize our expertise in product design software to steer them away from potholes and pitfalls they can’t see coming
-
We are Highly Responsive
An essential aspect of communication and collaboration is responsiveness. We will always respond promptly, and we expect the same in return.
-
We Admit What We Don't Know
We know a lot about solving problems through technology, but we don’t know it all. We will admit what we don’t know and either come up with a plan to figure it out or help a client to get the expertise somewhere else.
-
We Show Mutual Respect
Respect our team and their efforts to help you accomplish your objectives. Creating things is hard but doing it in a supportive relationship makes it easier. Let’s not make it harder than it already is.
-
We Admit When We Get Something Wrong
We’re not perfect. Clients are not perfect. That’s okay; we’ll be imperfectly awesome together and admit when each is wrong.
-
We Keep Egos in Check
Being right is less important than doing the right thing. No chest-thumping, no grandstanding, and no ego-boosting.
