01
“Every vendor pushes their own piece”
The app over here, the website over there, the campaigns somewhere else. Nobody is accountable for making it all work together.
Fractional CTO services
A fractional CTO who makes the call and stays to build it
We lead your company's technology on agreed hours: what to build, what to skip, which vendors and what budget. When it's needed, we build it, run it and connect it to your marketing. One team, one accountable owner.
Decisions with an owner
Execution by the same team
Tech and marketing connected
The breaking point
Your tech stack keeps growing. Nobody is leading it.
You don't lack vendors. You lack someone on your side who sees the whole picture: what you already have, what you're being pitched and what actually moves your business.
02
“It works, but every change costs more”
Nobody has reviewed it with a technical eye or told you what holds up and what doesn't.
03
“There's a big proposal on the table and no benchmark”
You need a point of comparison before you sign.
How we work
Fractional CTO services that don't stop at a slide deck
Our fractional CTO service is ongoing technology leadership for small and mid-sized companies: we're in the weekly decisions and, when you need it, in the execution too.
Deciding what to build and what not to
Priorities, architecture and tech budget, reviewed with you on a fixed cadence. Half the value is in what gets cut.
Reviewing what already exists
What's well built, what will cost you later and what to fix first.
Bringing order among vendors
We translate what you're quoted and put in writing what each vendor delivers and how it gets verified.
Build and run it when needed
Apps, platforms, integrations and support, by the same team that made the call. We build it through software development and keep it running through operations and support.
Fractional CTO and fractional CMO, without two vendors
Most companies hire a fractional CTO and an outsourced CMO separately and then pay for the gap between them. We run both on the same systems, so the people who decide the technology also own the campaigns that run on it. That's our marketing and growth.
Real case
How we do it for MCNP, in Mexico
MCNP is a medical association of psychiatrists and physicians in Mexico. We lead their full digital ecosystem: we decide with them what to build, we develop and run their app and platform, and we own the monthly marketing strategy on those same systems.
1,494
physicians reached in a single campaign
In one of our 2026 campaigns, with a 43% open rate.
28
applications received through the platform

Three ways to start
Depending on what you have on the table today
Almost nobody arrives asking for "technical direction". They arrive with one of these three things, and the work is built around it.
Nobody is running the area
Ongoing support as your fractional CTO: priorities, architecture and budget reviewed with you on a fixed cadence.
There's a piece of software to review
A technical review with findings sorted by risk and by what they cost to fix, and by who should do each one.
There's a proposal to evaluate
We read what you were quoted, point out what's missing from the scope and tell you what to ask before you sign.
Scope
What defines the work in your case
There's no catalogue rate because no two companies have the same technical maturity. This is what we look at before proposing anything.
Which decisions are open
One platform to choose weighs differently than twenty tasks to prioritize. The rhythm of the engagement comes out of that.
What's already built and who built it
If there are vendors already at work, part of the job is understanding them before giving an opinion on what they deliver.
Who executes afterwards
We can stay only in the direction, or take charge of building and running it too. Those are two different scopes.
Who we talk to on your side
Technical direction leans on someone from the business who answers questions. Without that counterpart the decisions stall.
In the diagnostic we go through these four points, and out of it comes a proposal with the scope in writing. Book a free assessment.
Fit
When something else suits you better
You already have a technical lead with judgment
If someone in-house already makes these calls and owns them, what you may be missing is hands or a system, not leadership. That's what our dedicated technical staff.
You're looking for a full-time in-house hire
We work on agreed hours and remotely. If the role you need is a permanent hire on your payroll, that's a recruiting process.
Questions
What clients ask before we start
What is a fractional CTO?
Someone who takes on your company's technology leadership on agreed hours, without joining the payroll. They decide with you what to build, review what gets built and own the technical judgment in front of your vendors. At DSC, the same team can also execute what it decides.
Is a fractional CTO the same as technology consulting?
It's technology consulting that stays: ongoing, in the weekly decisions, and able to execute. If you only need a one-off review, we do that too.
Are you going to say everything has to be rebuilt?
It's almost never the right answer and selling you a rebuild is not our business. What usually comes out of a review is what holds up as it is, what gets fixed and what only needs documenting.
Can you work with the vendor I already have?
Yes, and it's the most common case. We don't come in to displace anyone: we come in so that what they deliver can be verified. If the review shows that vendor isn't up to it, we tell you, with the reason.
Can you run our marketing too?
Yes. The same team that leads the technology runs the campaign strategy on those systems, as in the case on this page, so you can see what actually brings in customers.
How is it billed?
By an agreed monthly commitment, or by the closed scope of a review. The figure comes out of the diagnostic and is put in writing in the proposal: we don't publish a price here because it would depend on the case.
Do you work with companies outside Colombia?
Yes. We work remotely, in shared hours, with everything important in writing. The case on this page is a client outside our home market.
Next step
Tell us which decision is on your plate
That's enough to start: what you were proposed, what you have built and what worries you. We'll tell you whether this is right for you or whether something else is a better fit. No strings attached.
