Orange Lampshade brings over 40 years of combined, hands on experience delivering technology and business outcomes across finance, legal, education, health, engineering, hospitality, and professional services in both government and commercial environments.

We’ve operated at senior levels across technology, business systems, and service design. Not as advisors on the sidelines, but accountable for delivery, outcomes, and results.

That means we know where value is created and more importantly, where it is lost.

We quickly identify what matters and act on it:

• Eliminating operational inefficiencies and cost leakage

• Stabilising delivery and restoring control

• Designing and launching new services that generate measurable returns

Our formal qualifications span business, technology, and enterprise architecture, but our real value comes from repeatedly solving complex problems in live environments, where failure isn’t an option.

Credentials

• Bachelor of Corporate Systems Management

• Bachelor of Information Technology (Software Engineering)

• Master of Business Administration (MBA)

• Graduate Certificate in Enterprise Architecture

Diagnose.

We develop a clear view of your current environment across cost, risk, performance, and capability. Highlighting where complexity has built up, where value is unclear, and where exposure exists.

Prioritise.

We focus on what will have the greatest impact. Initiatives are aligned to business outcomes, creating a clear and practical path forward.

Assure.

We provide independent oversight and ongoing assurance, supporting leadership teams and delivery partners to keep initiatives aligned, controlled, and on track.

• Focused on outcomes, not activity

• No unnecessary complexity

• Right-sized solutions aligned to your stage of growth

• Independent and objective, aligned to your best interests

Boards and businesses at the point where growth introduces complexity, and where technology decisions start to shape cost, performance, and risk.

Typically, this looks like:

• Scaling operations, teams, or systems

• Moving beyond early-stage ways of working

• Feeling the impact of increasing complexity

• Making significant technology or investment decisions

• Operating without senior technology leadership

• Seeking independent, objective advice

• Managing rising or unclear technology costs

• Looking to optimise spend without slowing growth

• Needing greater visibility and control

• Delivering critical projects or transformations

• Concerned about cyber, delivery, or operational risk

• Wanting to identify issues early, before they escalate
