Fractional CIO Services in Atlanta, GA.
If you searched for a fractional CIO, what we hold is one seat wider. The Business Architect seat covers everything a fractional CIO covers (strategy, providers, security, board reporting) plus data, growth, programs, and risk. One seat on your leadership team, held by the firm, for a flat monthly fee, with a real 60-day exit. Atlanta-based and woman-owned since 2018.
What does the Business Architect seat cover?
Five domains, one accountable owner: technology, data, growth, programs and operations, and risk, including the AI question your board is already asking. Your VCS Business Architect sets the roadmap, selects and oversees every provider, including reading the invoices of your existing IT company, stewards the budget so spend maps to results, keeps the risk register current and ranked, and reports to your board in business language, not jargon. The seat does not replace your IT company or your agency; it sits above them, holding them to their contracts. As of our August 2026 review of the fractional technology leadership market, fourteen firms sell single-domain judgment, and nobody sells the seams, the decisions that land in more than one domain at once. That is the seat. See how it works end to end on the Business Architect seat page. Every Atlanta engagement starts the same way as anywhere else, Assess, Transform, Lead, beginning with the fixed-fee Business Architecture Assessment, quoted before any work begins.
Do you serve metro Atlanta in person?
Yes: Sandy Springs, Peachtree Corners, and Johns Creek directly, with active memberships in the Johns Creek Chamber of Commerce and the Peachtree Corners Business Association. The seat runs anywhere in the United States, but Atlanta is home, so metro clients get what a remote-only firm cannot offer: board presentations and working sessions in the room. Our clients are stewarded institutions: funded nonprofits, associations, professional practices, and clinics of roughly 10 to 75 staff, along with the professional practices that carry the same complexity.
Is VCS certified for City of Atlanta procurement?
Yes. V Consulting Services is a Georgia LLC, founded in Atlanta in 2018 by Violetta Madej, and holds City of Atlanta FBE/SBE certification for municipal procurement, alongside WBENC certification as a women-owned business, SBA certification as a WOSB (Woman-Owned Small Business), and an active SAM.gov registration.

Is the Business Architect seat the same as a fractional CIO?
It covers everything a fractional CIO covers (technology strategy, provider oversight, security posture, board reporting) plus four domains that role does not: data, growth, programs, and risk including AI. One accountable seat, held by a firm, starting from the outcome and working back across all of it. That is why we call the role what it is: the Business Architect seat.
Do you only work with Atlanta organizations?
No, the seat runs anywhere in the United States. Atlanta is home, which means metro clients also get in-person board presentations and working sessions.
Which metro communities do you serve?
All of metro Atlanta, including Sandy Springs, Peachtree Corners, and Johns Creek, where VCS is active in the Johns Creek Chamber of Commerce and the Peachtree Corners Business Association.
Are you certified for City of Atlanta procurement?
Yes. V Consulting Services is City of Atlanta FBE/SBE certified, SBA-certified WOSB, WBENC-certified, and SAM.gov active. Details are on the Government page.
How does an engagement start?
With a 15-minute conversation, then the fixed-fee Business Architecture Assessment: one look across technology, data, growth, programs, and risk, quoted before work begins, with no overages and no obligation afterward. Projects and the recurring seat follow only if the findings warrant them: Assess, Transform, Lead.
What does the seat cost?
A flat monthly fee, quoted as one number after the assessment and sized to your organization. For comparison, a full-time CIO alone runs roughly $180K to $300K fully loaded, and the seat covers four domains beyond that role. There are no hourly rates or asset lock-ins, and either party can end the engagement with 60 days' written notice.
