VYINGS provides fractional IT leadership designed to align your business strategy with the right technology decisions. We work alongside your team, vendors, and service providers to ensure your IT investments support growth, efficiency, and security.

We don’t compete with your MSP or consultants — we bridge the gap between your business goals and the technology that supports them. MSPs handle day-to-day operations. Consultants often solve isolated problems. VYINGS delivers ongoing strategic leadership, ensuring your systems, vendors, and projects are aligned with long-term growth.

We work with small to mid-sized businesses, leadership teams, and fast-scaling companies that need executive-level IT guidance — but don’t require (or can’t justify) a full-time CIO or IT Director.

We offer four core services:

  • GrowthSync IT Leadership: Strategic oversight and planning

  • TechGuide Advisory: Ongoing IT optimization and risk mitigation

  • Half-Day Consulting: Focused sessions to audit or resolve specific challenges

  • TechPath Workshop: Fast, tactical solutions for urgent issues

Each is designed to meet a different level of need — from long-term vision to immediate problem-solving.

We integrate into your business part-time, often attending leadership meetings, reviewing systems, advising on vendor relationships, or helping staff with IT decision-making. We’re accessible without being on your full-time payroll.

Yes — and we prefer to. VYINGS adds strategic oversight while empowering your internal and external tech resources. We help clarify priorities, resolve conflicts, and ensure everyone is working toward a shared business outcome.

Yes. If you don’t need ongoing leadership, our Half-Day Consulting and TechPath Workshop options provide tactical support and issue resolution on a flexible basis.

In most cases, we can begin within 5–10 business days. For urgent needs, such as critical system issues or security risks, we can often schedule an initial session sooner.

We are based in Canada and serve businesses across North America. Services are typically delivered remotely, but on-site engagements can be arranged when needed.

VYINGS is industry-agnostic — we’ve supported organizations in construction, real estate, professional services, nonprofit, and beyond. The common thread is helping leaders make smarter, future-proof technology decisions.

You’re in control. Many clients transition into a flexible, ongoing advisory relationship or re-engage us when they need support on new initiatives. Others use our services to get over a major hurdle and then take the reins internally.

Yes — cybersecurity is integrated into all of our services. We ensure your business is protected by identifying risks, strengthening defenses, and aligning security measures with your operational needs.
