Most companies don't have a technology problem. They have an operational pain problem that technology is quietly making worse. We diagnose it. We fix it. We operate the solution. We don't advise. We operate.

Pain Identification — Where Does It Hurt?

RECOGNIZE
YOUR PAIN?

Every engagement starts by naming the pain exactly. If you recognize your situation in any of these, you're in the right place.

Pain Area
AI CONFUSION
You bought AI tools. Nothing changed.
Everyone told you to adopt AI. You licensed tools. You ran pilots. You attended webinars. Six months later your teams are confused, your vendors are billing you, and you have no idea what actually changed.

Pain Area
OPERATIONAL BOTTLENECKS
Your technology slows you down.
You have a dozen tools that don't talk to each other. Data lives in too many places. Simple tasks span multiple systems. Your team spends a big share of every week working around technology instead of with it.
+ View details
Fix This →
Pain Area
SECURITY EXPOSURE
You don't know what you don't know.
You don't have a CISO. Your IT team is overwhelmed. Nobody has done a real risk assessment in 2 years. You're probably not compliant with the frameworks your clients require. You find out about vulnerabilities when something breaks.

Pain Area
VENDOR CHAOS
Too many vendors. Zero accountability.
You have 15 technology vendors and none of them talk to each other or to you about the full picture. When something breaks, everyone points at someone else. No single throat to choke. No one who owns the outcome.
+ View details
Fix This →
Pain Area
TECHNOLOGY LEADERSHIP GAP
No CTO. No strategy. No accountability.
You can't afford a full-time CTO or CISO. Your technology decisions are made by whoever is loudest in the room. There's no governance, no roadmap, and no one with the seniority to push back on bad decisions.

Pain Area
DATA BLINDNESS
You're running on gut feel.
Your data is in spreadsheets, disconnected systems, and people's heads. You make decisions without knowing if they're right. Reports take days to produce. When something goes wrong, you don't find out until it's already a problem.

The Operating Model

NOT CONSULTING. OPERATING.

Consultants hand you a report. We give you a fixed operation — four steps, clear deliverables, outcomes you can measure.

01
IDENTIFY THE PAIN
A diagnostic, not a sales call.
02
FIX THE PAIN
Execution, not recommendations.
03
OPERATE THE SOLUTION
We run it, not just build it.
04
OWN THE OUTCOME
Accountable to results, not hours.

The Operating Team

SENIOR PRACTITIONERS.
NOT CONSULTANTS.

Everyone who touches your engagement has operated at the enterprise level. No junior staff. No hand-offs to an execution team after the pitch. Practitioners who own the outcome.

Why WolfpackFront

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A REPORT
AND A RESULT.

You don't need another advisor. You need someone who will find the operational pain, fix it, and stand behind the outcome. That's the whole company.

01
SENIOR-ONLY. ALWAYS.

Every engagement is run by senior practitioners with enterprise backgrounds — Accenture, Capgemini, and the like. No juniors learning on your dime. No offshore handoffs. The person who scopes the work is the person who does it.

02
WE OPERATE. WE DON’T ADVISE.

Most firms hand you a slide deck and a bill, then leave you to implement it. We build the fix and run it. We own the outcome — not the recommendation.

03
DEFINED SCOPE. FIXED PRICE.

Engagements start from $2,500 with a clear scope and a fixed price. No open-ended retainers, no scope creep, no surprise invoices. You know what you’re getting and what it costs before we start.

04
YOU TALK TO THE OPERATOR.

Direct access to the person doing the work — no account managers, no ticket queues between you and the fix. We start by finding the real pain, not by writing a 90-day assessment.

Track Record

THIS ISN'T OUR
FIRST OPERATION.

WolfpackFront isn't a first attempt. Our founder ran enterprise transformations at Accenture — at the scale most firms only build slide decks about, with the outcome on the line. Client names withheld; the work speaks for itself.

Fortune-4 Healthcare & Pharmacy
AIOps & Infrastructure Intelligence

Turned a sprawl of fragmented monitoring tools into a single intelligence layer — tying IT health directly to patient-centric outcomes across thousands of retail and pharmacy sites.

9,000+
sites under one operational picture
Global Hospitality Network
Enterprise Network Modernization

Re-architected the global network backbone across thousands of properties — standardizing connectivity, hardening security, and cutting site-level outages.

50%+
fewer site-level outages
Fortune-500 Manufacturer
Cloud Migration & Operations Takeover

Migrated core workloads to the cloud, then took over day-to-day operations — owning the run, not just the plan.

$30M+
in run-cost and downtime avoided
Donald Grieb, Founder of WolfpackFront

“I spent my consulting career inside the Fortune 100 fixing the operational pain that keeps executives up at night — AIOps for a national healthcare leader, the network behind a global hospitality brand, a cloud migration and operations takeover for a Fortune-500 manufacturer. WolfpackFront is that same operating discipline, without the 90-day assessment or the offshore handoff.”

Questions, Answered

BEFORE YOU
REACH OUT.

A fractional CTO is a senior technology leader who runs your technology on a part-time, ongoing basis — strategy, governance, vendor management, and team direction — without the cost of a full-time executive. The difference from a consultant: a consultant advises and leaves; WolfpackFront operates and owns the outcome. We don't write a strategy deck and hand it off — we execute the fix and run the solution.

Engagements start with a 90-minute Readiness Session at no cost — you leave with a clear plan whether you hire us or not. Project work and fractional CTO/CISO retainers are scoped transparently after that, with a typical entry point around $2,500. There is no proposal theater and no offshore handoff; you work with senior practitioners directly.

The Big 4 sell large teams, long assessments, and recommendations. WolfpackFront is operator-led: senior practitioners who have run enterprise transformations (Unisys, Accenture, Capgemini, NSC Global) diagnose the operational pain fast, fix it, and operate the solution. No junior staff, no 90-day assessment before anything moves, and we own the outcome rather than just the deck.

Risk assessment, gap analysis, a compliance roadmap (for the frameworks your clients require), policy creation, and ongoing security operations — the fractional CISO model. It gives mid-market organizations a defensible security program and a known risk posture without the cost of a full-time CISO.

The Readiness Session identifies your highest-leverage pain on day one — not months later. From there, fixes are scoped to deliver measurable results fast, because the same senior practitioner who diagnoses the problem also executes it. No handoff lag between strategy and delivery.

Founders, owners, and operators of mid-market companies — and the CIOs, CISOs, COOs, and private-equity operating partners accountable for technology that is costing more than it should in time, money, or risk. If you run something and own the outcome, you're who we're built for.

We are accountable to results, not billable hours. We identify the operational pain, fix it, and operate the solution ongoing — so the improvement sticks instead of degrading after a consultant leaves. The engagement is measured by the outcome we committed to, not the size of the team or the length of the report.
