Frequently asked questions about myCDO

A fractional CDO is an external digital director who dedicates to your company only the hours it actually needs, without the cost of a full-time executive. They define the digital strategy, decide what to build and what to buy, lead the development of custom internal tools, digitalize and optimize processes, and put data and reporting in order. With myCDO you get senior digital leadership embedded in your business, focused on measurable impact instead of never-ending projects.

We start from the business, not the technology. We map your processes, identify where there is repetitive work, bottlenecks or dependence on key people, and estimate for each improvement the expected return, the operational impact and the technical feasibility. With that matrix we build a phased roadmap: first the improvements with the highest ROI and lowest risk, which build credibility and fund the next ones. That way every tool we build and every process we touch answers to a measurable goal.

It depends on each case, and that is exactly one of the decisions we lead. If there is software that solves the problem at a reasonable cost, buying usually wins; if the process is a differentiator for your business, building can make sense. When we build, we define the real MVP —the minimum that creates value— and challenge budgets and vendor proposals so you never overbuild. Modern development tooling is making custom software cheaper, but bad implementation is still expensive: that is why every euro is justified before it is spent.

On top of what you already have, not against it. The tools we develop integrate with your ERP and the software you already use —we do not force you to switch systems— and connect the sources that today live scattered across spreadsheets. We define which data is the good data and where it lives, build the reporting and dashboards the business needs, and establish data governance: who can access what, how quality is maintained and how data protection regulations are met. That way decisions are made from a single source of truth.

That is what myIA is for, our product specialized in AI implementation: it identifies your use cases, prioritizes them by return and implements them with training and real adoption by the team. myCDO and myIA complement each other: myCDO builds the tools and puts in order the processes and data that AI works well on, and myIA brings AI into your day-to-day, case by case.

We work in phases, not endless projects. We start with a diagnostic and a prioritized roadmap; then we deliver the first tools and process improvements in short cycles that produce visible value, and continue with successive cycles based on results. The total duration depends on the scope and the pace of your organization. Success is measured with indicators agreed with you from the start: hours saved, shorter lead times, errors avoided, real adoption by the team, and return on investment for each improvement.
