JH Strategic IT is an independent IT strategy advisory for mid-market business leaders, delivering IT spend visibility, ROI clarity, and board-level governance.
Business leaders call me in when IT produces activity instead of financial clarity. I give CEOs, CFOs, and COOs a clean view of where their technology dollars go, what the business gets back, where waste hides, and how to realign 3 to 7 percent of spend within 14 days. The work is independent, financial, and governance-first.
Stop Defending IT Spend. Start Proving Its ROI.
In 14 days, I uncover where $400K – $8M in strategic reallocation lives without adding a single new system.

Governance Integration Program
Summary
A 10 to 12 week engagement that installs the governance operating system that keeps IT spend, risk, and reporting aligned with Finance and Operations year-round.
The Problem
Even when leaders gain clarity, it fades. Reporting drifts. Vendors shift priorities. IT slips back into technical language. Finance loses visibility and the board loses confidence. Without a unified governance system, clarity cannot hold.
What This Service Does
It installs the rules, scorecards, decision rights, and reporting rhythms that keep IT accountable to financial outcomes. It creates a permanent structure where Finance, IT, and Operations operate from the same view of spend, value, and risk.
