You don't need more technology. You need a smarter plan.

EvoAdapt helps small and medium Australian businesses evolve, adapt and maximise their technology, and get more value from what they already pay for.

Based in Melbourne. We work in person around the city and remotely across Australia.

Three ways to get more from your technology

Start with what you already have, before you buy anything new.

  • EvolvePlan ahead with a clear roadmap, so technology supports where your business is going.
  • AdaptAdjust your systems, providers and security as your business and the risks around it change.
  • MaximiseGet full value from the partners, contracts and systems you already have.

The levers we work on

This is where we usually find the value.

  • Service providersHold providers to what they promised, and use your leverage at renewal.
  • Contracts and licencesRemove overlap and unused licences, and right-size what you pay for.
  • Your current environmentGet more from the systems and network you run before buying anything new.
  • Security and riskClose the gaps that matter most, ranked by risk, cost and effort. We use the ACSC Essential Eight, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS as references for good practice. We help you work towards them. We don't certify your business.

Start with a fixed-scope assessment

The fastest way to see where the value is. Each assessment has a clear scope and price, a written report, and decisions you can act on.

Service provider value assessment

Are you getting what you're paying for? We compare your contracts, pricing and service levels against what's actually delivered.

Environment assessment and recommendations

A clear picture of the technology and network you run today, and a practical plan to make it simpler, safer and easier to grow.

Who's behind EvoAdapt

EvoAdapt is led by its Managing Director, who has spent the last 15 years shaping the technology landscape to best suit organisations' needs.

With a depth of experience that spans every level of a typical technology department, EvoAdapt is built around one aim: making technology work harder for the business it serves. That means smoother delivery, stronger compliance, routine work automated, change that people can absorb, and cloud adoption that doesn't run away with the budget.

EvoAdapt's guiding principles are Evolve, Adapt and Maximise. They rest on four core values: excellence, efficiency, people and growth. Technology isn't just the tools in use, but how they're used and the people who use them to deliver the results a business wants. With that in mind, EvoAdapt develops people as well as systems, helping organisations build cross-skilled, adaptable engineering teams, including existing teams in demanding environments such as government, where there's often little room to progress.

With an engineer's instinct for how things connect, EvoAdapt helps organisations define the outcome, trace the path to it, and see where a chosen direction leads before it's committed to. That makes it possible to head off problems early or steer towards a better route, and to deliver strong results without extra spend, unexpected bills or scope creep. EvoAdapt brings that discipline to smaller businesses, giving them the rigour of a large enterprise while keeping their agility.

  • Operational excellenceBetter processes, delivery and ways of working.

  • ComplianceGetting organisations ready for certification and audits.
  • Change managementGetting people, skills and processes ready for new ways of working.
  • Building teamsDeveloping cross-skilled, adaptable engineering teams that take on new challenges.
  • Automation and DevSecOpsRoutine work automated, with security built in from the start.

Common questions

What does EvoAdapt do?

We help businesses evolve, adapt and get the most from their technology. That means planning smarter, finding more value in the partners, contracts and systems you already have, and providing technology leadership when you need it.

What does CIO and CISO as a service mean?

A Chief Information Officer leads technology strategy, spending and delivery. A Chief Information Security Officer leads security and risk. As a service, you get that senior leadership part-time, when you need it, without hiring a full-time executive.

Will you replace my current IT provider?

No. We work independently of your service providers and on your side. We help you hold them to what they promised, and get more from the relationships you already have. If a change of provider makes sense, we'll tell you why and help you plan it.

Do you only work with businesses in Melbourne?

No. We work with businesses across Australia, mostly remotely, and in person around Melbourne.

Can you help us meet security standards?

Yes. We work with you to meet standards such as the ACSC Essential Eight, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS. We assess where you stand, close the gaps, and get you ready for certification. The certification itself is awarded by an accredited auditor, and we'll guide you through that process.

How is the work priced?

Choose a retainer, per hour, pre-paid hours or a defined-scope project. Tell us what you need and we'll quote it before we start.

What's a service provider value assessment?

An independent review of your contracts, pricing and service levels against what's actually delivered. You receive a written report, ranked findings and clear options, including talking points for renegotiation.

We already have a technology leader. Can you still help?

Yes. Many of our clients are technology leaders who want a sounding board, an independent second opinion, or extra capacity for a review, renewal or project.
