Dallas Stump
Fractional CTO & Technology Strategy Consultant
Modernizing systems. Strengthening strategy. Accelerating execution.
I help organizations transform their technology, eliminate risk, and execute with clarity — without the cost of a full-time CTO or CIO.
Technology is changing fast. Most organizations struggle to keep up.
Common symptoms I see in growing organizations:
- No clear IT strategy or roadmap
- Projects that run over budget or never finish
- Outdated or fragile systems
- Security and compliance gaps
- Vendor confusion and costly misalignment
- Teams needing leadership, direction, and better process
I step in as the experienced technology leader who brings order, direction, and measurable results.
