Solution consulting
Choose the right solution before you spend.
NAD reviews where you are, compares options and plans a technology roadmap, AI included, that fits your size and budget. You decide on evidence, not on a sales pitch.
When to get advice first?
A wrong technology decision usually costs many times more than advice. These are the moments to pause and get clarity.
- 01
About to invest in new software
You want to know whether to buy, customize or build before signing anything.
- 02
Quotes you can’t compare
Vendors propose different stacks, scopes and prices. You need an independent view.
- 03
Curious about AI, unsure where to start
Find which tasks AI handles well, which it shouldn’t yet, and how to measure results.
- 04
Disconnected tools, manual data entry
Data lives in many places and your team copies it between tools by hand.
- 05
Slow, fragile product you may rebuild
Decide between fixing and rebuilding based on real cost and risk.
- 06
Infrastructure costs keep rising
Review hosting, cloud services and licences to cut what you don’t need.

Advice that serves your decision.
Vendor-neutral
NAD takes no commission from the platforms or software it recommends.
No build lock-in
The proposal is yours. Build it in-house or with any partner.
Confidential by default
Happy to sign an NDA before reviewing your systems and data.
Honest about “not yet”
If something simpler is enough, NAD will say so.
The kick-off conversation is free. Assessments and ongoing advice are quoted by scope after that conversation, for your approval before work starts.
No. The roadmap is written so your team or any vendor can deliver it. If you like, NAD can quote the build separately.
Your business goal, the tools you use, an indicative budget and someone who knows the workflow. No technical documents are required.
Yes. Most clients are SMEs in retail, services, education and healthcare. NAD explains things in business terms, not jargon.
