Exceptional Website Design for Businesses

Oriad is not a substitute for your IT vendor or department. Rather, we collaborates with them – and with you – to enhance the value they bring to your business. Oriad partners with your IT team to implement solutions that operate both effectively and efficiently.

Our ideal project involves situations where there is a disconnect between business and IT. Early in our careers, we were part of a small, high-performing team that handled every aspect of business support and technology. This hands-on experience taught us what works and what doesn’t, a mindset that shapes our approach today. We thrive in tackling complex projects, uncovering underlying issues, recommending tailored solutions, and guiding their implementation to ensure positive outcomes for all involved.

Our ideal client has an IT department—whether in-house or outsourced—though we work with companies of all sizes facing challenges in their IT operations. These challenges often arise when communication gaps lead to the implementation of services and software that don’t fully support the evolving needs of the business. We excel at bridging the divide between business and IT, ensuring both sides work in harmony to drive success.

Oriad isn’t a traditional Managed Service Provider. While not every company needs or can afford an in-house IT department, our role is to step in and work alongside your existing IT team, providing leadership and strategic direction. We focus on developing and guiding the implementation of strategies, rather than taking over day-to-day IT operations. For many businesses with capable IT departments, a third-party MSP may not be necessary. If an MSP is involved, we can assess the relationship and offer recommendations to enhance its value and effectiveness.

Oriad’s expertise is rooted in food manufacturing and industrial sectors, where we have seen significant success. While these industries are where we have made the greatest impact, we believe many other sectors can benefit from our approach. If your business doesn’t align with these areas, let’s talk and explore how Oriad can still be the right partner for your needs.

The true value of working with a consultant like Oriad is realized over time, at a pace that suits the client. While hourly billing can be appropriate in certain cases, it often proves inefficient and costly, especially when clients are facing performance challenges. For many of our clients, a retainer offers the best value. It ensures ongoing support when needed, without the risk of unexpected costs, providing stability and consistent service for your business.
